Summary:

Joshua Marin is a third-generation cobbler, born and raised in Chicago's North Side. While he inherited the old-school trade from his father and grandfather, the 20-year-old is putting his own fresh spin on shoe repair. At his Fix Your Kicks stores, Marin lovingly restores sneakers - primarily Air Jordans - to their former glory. Today, he's a respected business owner, embraced by the community for his high-quality work. This video is from the Human Condition collection of Great Big Stories. This Great Big Story was made in partnership with the new Showtime series The Chi.
