Handmade Shoes For Everyone!

Handmade shoes

I was reading an article (I wish I could remember where!) about the remuneration packages of the so-called ‘executive fat cats’, now a dying breed, or even perhaps dead after the subprime financial disaster.

The author used the term ‘handmade shoes’ in a derogatory fashion, suggesting that these super rich executives can afford custom made shoes, rather than the mass produced, made in China type that the rest of us get to wear.

That got me thinking about one of my customers, Gillian Pechey of Pechey Hand Crafted Sandals (www.pecheysandals.com). Gillian sells sandals from her website at a very reasonable price, to anywhere in the world. So you don’t have to be a top paid executive to be a proud owner of handmade shoes!
