Hi all! I want to modify a couple of pairs of running shoes to include a loop near the toe so I can attach my gaiters a bit further forward than the lacing. This would require someone who can sew through the leather at the toebox of the shoe. Basically I want to put a short loop of some kind (a flat cord would be best) right at the toe, so the sewing would be minimal, but require a tough needle and/or special tools. Can anyone recommend a cobbler or seamstress that could do this for me? Thanks in advance! .Terri
