Diego B. Valdez

Local shoemaking and tailoring

  • 🇺🇸 San Francisco, California, United States
  • Old San Francisco Shop
  • Since 2007
  • English, Spanish
I've worked in shoemaking since 2007. I learned from my mother and passed what I could on to 630 apprentices. I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I garden badly but happily.

More about Diego

Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
What gifts mean to Diego: A gift would go toward tools for apprentices who can't afford their own.
