Sorry Chris but Dad now has dementia and I have thrown away all the old
shoes. They wouldn't have been much use anyway, all cracked and hard. I
suggest you do what my husband did when he needed a new tool pouch for his
wrenches. He couldn't find one ready made so he went to an upholstery shop
and had one made. He had the old one as a pattern but you could just do a
drawing with measurements and they should be able to make what you need.
If they don't have suede to do it let me know, there is a leather shop near
here where I could get you a hide to use. Ruth

!!!!!Ruth, as a matter of fact, I had given up trying to find something
ready made, and I need to make some small protective wraps for my chisel
points and I could use a couple pieces of very supple leather --- suede
best, but I don't want to be too pushy. (Recently my wife just threw the
chisels into the tool box -- points first!!!!) I thought I had some old
chaps I could cut up, but some idiot threw them out. The pieces I need
would be about 5"x5" each - you can send them collect. Or, just send your
Dad. He can stay until my son returns from sailing off Queensland, around
December 15th.
Best, Christopher Gray
