Leather bag repairs?

[nettie147 10]

I've got a leather bag and the fixing for the shoulder strap has pulled through. Is there anyone in Sheffield that works with leather and might be able to repair?  Any recommendations for local craftsmen gratefully received.

A good cobbler may be able to this.

You never seem to see the old fashioned Cobblers shop's on the high streets these day's they must be a dieing breed is leather working still taught as a trade or is it an apprenticeship just taught in costly shoe making shop's in London, there was a very good one in Wombwell in the 50's /60's Mr Moulds near the railway station for those who may remember him a very good artist as well he repaired my school satchel a few times, there is a good one in Mexbrough called Micks he has good reviews but if you want one thats easy to get too then Timpson's in Meadow Hall I was looking for some leather working thread or waxed thread that would not perish asked on the off chance if they sold it and was told they do use it for bag repair and shoe stitching so you could try there hope it helps.
