Description

This antique cast iron cobbler's shoe last features a classic dual-ended heel and toe form designed for traditional shoemaking, leatherworking, and boot repair. The heavy iron casting has a natural dark aged patina and includes mounting holes along the base stem for secure attachment to a bench stand or cobbler's workbench.

Used by shoemakers to hold footwear in place during sole repair, riveting, and stitching, this functional piece of early industrial hardware doubles as an excellent vintage decorative accent, rustic doorstop, or addition to an antique tool collection.
