I've taken six classes at J. C. Campbell. They have all been good. This one was the best!

I wear the boots I made in your class all the time. I made my husband a pair, 8" high boots. He loves them!

We all love the stitchdown method. It has changed us and now all our shoes are done this way.

- W. M., Amish friend, shoemaker

 

Thanks for sending me a box of your shoes. They are "awsome". The workmanship rivals my own, and I've been doing this for 35 years! I've had several orders for the shoes you taught me to make!

- L. S. Bingham, master bootmaker

 

Thanks for sharing your many secrets with me. I really like the shoes we made while I was there. You should make videos.

Welcome to my workshop!

… Enjoy your visit!

Here in the mountains of rural Virginia, I craft durable, attractive shoes, made with high-quality materials, techniques old and new (plus a few of my own invention) and a geniune love for my work. A great many feet have wandered, danced or hobbled through my shop, and walked out happy, in custom-designed and individually fitted shoes. I created this website to make my shoes available to more people, and to share my knowledge and love of my craft.
