They said the stains were permanent and there was no solution but making them black. Before I got hopeless I went to this shop near my house. The gentleman at the shop was professional and told me he would do his best to fix them up and I honestly left with a little hope. After a week I picked them up and they looked brand new. All stains were removed and the original color stayed. Two big checks that I was hoping to see. And all for a valid price. A-1 Shoe Repair will do wonders!

Finding a solid, friendly, and honest shoe repair shop feels nearly impossible these days, but…read moreMaselli truly exceeded my expectations! I had been hesitant after reading mixed reviews of other places, so I reached out to Maselli first to see if they could meet my expectations. Their responsiveness and honesty immediately gave me confidence, and I decided to bring my boots in. I did have to pay the full amount upfront before seeing the finished product, which made me a bit hesitant at first--but the results truly speak for themselves. What impressed me even more was learning that the restoration was hand painted, not sprayed on, which shows just how much care, skill, and meticulous attention to detail went into the work. You can really tell they take pride in what they do. This place is truly a gem, and I'm so glad I took the chance. I've finally found a shoe repair shop I can trust and will absolutely be coming back.

When working in the city I would sometimes drop them of at places there just for convenience but nothing as good as The Cobblers. Not only a shoe repair place but a store for boots, work boots, hats, coats etc. I even stock up on Shoe Goo here for my Merrill running shoes with the sole that can't be replaced but was told it would be more expensive if they did it so just get the Shoe Goo. This place has been around since the late 50's and run by the same family.  Shoe repair is an art that won't get taken over by AI. The only thing that will put a place like this out of business is disposable shoes and clothes.  We are not there yet for the nice stuff. So once again my partner needed heels on her boots and since nothing local it's of to Hayward. $20 up front and a few days later boots look as good as new. New heels and all polished up. So for the ladies not sure if ya'll in the clackety heel camp or the more cushie no clack camp, but they have both. My partner is in the clackety camp. You can get hear her coming on a tile floor a mile away. So not just heels but resoles and all types of repairs. There is free parking on the street and in the back. Go there, it'll be great.

Whatever product they used or method they used it changed the color of the leather. It made them way darker in certain part of the boot very inconsistent. You can see in the pictures the different shades in the leather. It gives the impression that only one part of the boot was cleaned. I wish they would have giving me a quick run down of what they were going to do to the boots. Not cool walking around with half tan half brown boots. They charged $35 for this color scheme. They messed up my Thorogood boots. Not a cheap boot. I don't recommend this place. There another Cobbler in town that did my other work boots for half the price and they didn't change the color on the leather. STAY AWAY.
