RAÚL OJEDA - WILLIE'S SHOE SERVICE

By now you may have seen Raúl Ojeda's exceptional craftsmanship performed on Christophe Loiron's Road Champ Engineer Boots.  What many haven't seen is his work on a number of other Engineer Boots.

Although some may compare his work to that of Takeshi Okuyama (or is it just me?), I personally consider Raúl to be truly in a league of his own.  The best part?  He's right here in SoCal!
