Good to know about this Girne cobbler, because I've always been to the one in Orphanides, usually for stretching jobs.



Does this local guy have a machine for stretching?

its not all the mod cons but sure he can do. Also been told in the last day there is a shoe repairs in Karaoglanolu up the turning towards Karmi just past Mardo Ice cream on the right by the beledeyesi office. Someone had a complete piece of leather replaced on some sandles and was very impressed!
