“My name is Ruth Emily Davey. I am a shoemaker. I make handcrafted shoes that are repairable and designed to last. My passion and purpose has always been to create with my hands. I construct each pair of my shoes using the finest care and attention. Shoemaking cannot be fast forwarded; no corners can be cut without consequences or compensations to the end product. With the collection of different processes that unite each shoe it often feels that each pair is born into the world.”
