Hi,

Does anyone know where I can find handmade shoes for men? Any good shoe maker in N. Cyprus that specialises in making shoes by hand?

Cheers

Well that's a bit clever how did Topshoe become Travels?

I don't get it. Topshoe is a Man and Travels is a Lady. Am I missing something?

Yeah, but when I look at your member details it brings up Topshoe's posts and if I click on those it takes me right to Topshoe's post... most irregular...



When you first join I think your posts are moderated... hence no immediate show...

Hi, There is a shoeshop almost opposite the Dome Hotel with a sign in the window advertising hand made shoes.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried that (resioglu something no?) but the gentleman said he uses a machin now. Or is it another shop and I misunderstood?

Thanks

not sure if he is still there but 4 years ago I had a pair of shoes made by a guy who works from home and that is 3 or 4 houses on the right on the road to Edremit

Thanks you guys! I've tried that little shop but he now does them using a machine. Just my luck. Anyone else know of someone else who does shoes by hand?

Cheers!

You need to go to the shoe making area in Istanbul... It's in Sultanahmet every other shop is a shoe maker...
