Listen Kids and readers we have something interesting to tell you. Do not worry your dolls could have enough variety of shoes to wear   for a lifetime. K.B Shivshankar   owner of Star Footwear in Davis Road, Bangalore would be glad to see that his miniature creations is up for grabs by those lovely dolls.
So dear Barbie Doll   attendants and owners we are confident that once you meet this man you would have plenty of choices to select your dolls shoes. But despite the fact that Barbie herself   could  be actually wearing  a pair of 5cm shoes has not deterred Shivashanker  from pursuing  his first love i.e. the shoemaking. An expert craftsmen who ahs seasoned himself to the cobblers trade with experience has created  shoes of various  sizes and designs ranging from pencil heels, Floaters to gum boots  adorning the  shelves in his  shop. The smallest pair in his collection is just 1.75 cm and the "biggest", is 5 cm. Finely crafted, an average pair of these diminutive shoes takes form in just an hour in his expert hands if he puts his mind to it. 
The master craftsman’s expertise runs in his blood as his father was also a cobbler. He took up the family trade after his father’s demise and   inspired by the story of achievers dreamt his name too would glow in the history of successful men. This   feeling stimulated him to try out something different and started creating miniature shoes during the time he did not receive any orders. This   hobby sort of a thing of creating tiny shoes turned out to be a passion bug that bit him. His passion turned into motivation and will to deliver his masterpiece to the world. He had made 120 pairs   and as he had  a large appetite for tasting glory he ended up making 170 pairs till date.
Shivashanker is a living example of pursuing your passion with undisputed   determination shall certainly  put one on the success radar. These shoes are truly a labor of love, considering that constructing one pair takes about an hour. Therefore, if my math is correct, Shivshankar labored for more than seven full days to earn his way into the record book
The Largest  Collection of Miniature Footwear  counted to 170 and ranging between 1.5 cm to 5 cm was set by K.B.Shivashanker at Bangalore, Karnataka, India on January 4,2012.
