shoe repair, leather & vinyl repair
 + 0 moreBoth repairs were done quickly and perfectly, saving both pairs for additional years of wear. It's great to have a shoe repair shop in San Marcos. It's easy to find. They also sell work-type shoes. I have a lot of respect for people who learn and work in trades in a professional manner.
Description of Work: First visit a few years ago: to replace worn-down heels. Second visit July 2018: reglue a sole to the body of the shoe.

shoe repair
 + -1 moreThe shop did a fine job of reheeling my shoes. They cleaned the shoes up a bit, as well. The shoes could have been polished a bit shinier, but they were okay to wear just as they were presented to me. I asked if the shoes needed to be resoled and the proprietor said they didn't need it right now. I appreciated his honesty.
Description of Work: 25-year-old stacked heel slip-on ladies' shoes needed to be re-heeled, cleaned and polished.

 + -1 moreIsaac greeted me as I walked in and with a smile. He explained in detail how the belts would be shortened the proper way. The next day, I received an email that the belts were ready for pick up. The belts are perfect! The shop is real nice and they offer many boot and shoe repair services. They also carry shoes. I'm a forever customer!
Description of Work: I brought in 2 leather belts to be shortened.
