Sebastian Tarek is an extremely talented and unique Australian bespoke shoemaker operating out of London's West End—and an engaging storyteller like few others.

In our first-ever episode of Shoemaking Tool Time, Sebastian tells the tales of three of his most essential and treasured shoemaking tools: how he procured them (really not easy at all in any of the three instances!), what they've meant to him over his career, and of course what they DO—and how exactly he deploys them—in the process of creating absolutely wonderful bespoke footwear.
