Garth - The Cobbler
Garth is the local cobbler in Cooma, the one and only shoe repairer in the district. As well as fixing your everyday pair of shoes or boots, he can repair any kind of leather item. Before becoming a cobbler, Garth worked as a shearer, a driver instructor, and sold life insurance and Kirby vacuum cleaners – “you name it, I’ve had a go at it” he says with a glint in his eye.
At the age of 26, his girlfriend was browsing the jobs vacant in the Canberra Times, when she came upon an ad for someone to work in a Shoe Repair Shop in Belconnen Mall. “Stinking shoes, who would want to do that?” But having a keen interest in making leather goods, it took his eye. So, loaded up with some leather saddle bags which he had made for his Harley, he strode into the shop, and applied. And as they say, “the rest is history”.
Compared to everything else he has done, he says, “it’s a picnic. I just call it something I do, but it’s not work”, he says with a chuckle. I mentioned the smelly shoes that customers bring in, and he said “you just become immune to that, besides, there’s lots of nice glue to smell all day, you get a bit high, it’s lovely”.
