Over the past year I have been interviewing creatives and craftspeople in my spare time. This interview in the Jo Bear atelier was one of my first.

Jo and her husband, Jose, work with local artisans and small family factories to produce historically accurate shoes, from the medieval era to the mid-20th century. Whether for the film industry or vintage enthusiasts, Jo Bear’s boots and shoes are consciously designed using natural materials to create pieces that are as camera-ready as they are comfortable for everyday wear.

"It's what this small batch production allows us to make. We can make one pair of boots, for that person, in whatever colour they want, to their measurements, to their height, to try and include everyone... and you know exactly where it's come from"
