Nestled in a small attic in bustling Saigon, Chaussures Ngoc's handmade shoe shop has existed for decades.

Despite being 90 years old, this skilled craftsman is still busy stitching leather every day to fulfill his passion.

He devotes all his heart and soul to the shoes he makes, as for him every pair of shoes is a work of art.

Perhaps, that's why he is respected by everyone, not only close customers but people in the profession who fondly call him the "father" of shoemaking.

In the 1950s, when he was still in Cambodia, his shoe shop named Duc Phat was famous throughout the capital Phnom Penh, so the Cambodian royal family chose him as a shoemaker for the royal palace.

The talent of this veteran makes him famous throughout Saigon and a well-known shoemaker among Vietnamese artists.
