Willem Van der Wal
Shoemaking, done properly
- 🇳🇱 Nijmegen, Gelderland, Netherlands
- Sunrise Trades Guild
- 2001 to 2023
- Dutch
I've worked in shoemaking from 2001 to 2023. I learned from my father and passed what I could on to 920 apprentices.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I make terrible puns.
More about Willem
Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.

What gifts mean to Willem: Any gift will help me keep the workshop open for evening lessons.
