00:00In this video, you'll see how street cobblers repair their customers' shoes.
00:05In this case, the craftswoman has to repair the sole of a beautiful pair of women's shoes.
00:10With a huge industrial sander, the cobbler polishes the damaged part of the shoe
00:15and glues on a new one in a leaf-colored shade for contrast.
00:19She also polishes the excess of the sole, being careful not to scratch the rest of the shoe.
00:25Well, the heel also needed fixing, as it needed a new tip.
00:29The others on the shoe were destroyed, so the cobbler cut them off and sewed on new ones, with freshly punched holes.
00:36When she finally finishes her work, she removes all the remnants of glue and dirt, leaving the shoes shiny and like new.
00:43The artistry of shoe repair goes beyond simply fixing worn-out soles and heels.
00:48Cobblers often become attached to the shoes they work on, treating each pair as a unique piece of craftsmanship.

00:59All right, thank you.
01:01Bye.
01:02Bye.
