Traditional crafts are becoming extinct. Especially in a small country such as Finland. Not many are prepared to pay for good quality and hand manufacture when you can go to the closest supermarket and buy cheap crap that will last for the closest demand at hand and can be tossed out after that. That's why I have great respect for people like this: Mr Pekka Lahti, a 4th generation shoemaker who continues to make high quality cowboy boots (in Finland, mind you!) to a small but faithful clientele.
