Manuel Duarte

Master of shoemaking, now teaching apprentices

  • 🇲🇽 Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico
  • Xalapa Workshop
  • Since 1979
  • Spanish
I've worked in shoemaking since 1979. I learned from my older brother and passed what I could on to 2,490 apprentices. The best compliment I ever got was a customer who called me back 16 years later for another job. I'm proud of everyone I got to work with.
