- In olden times the poeple would be full grown when they would start to wear boots. It was the costum that when May-day would come all the children would go barefoot in the Summer.
The shoes are only repaired in this locality. There are two shoemakers in this district. This was a tradition in the families, perhaps from their grandfather. There are people in this district who always fix their own boots.
