And yes, when you walk into the store you smell that ole time glue and leather aroma and you'll see the foot mannequin that Michael works off of. You'll also notice that the shop is VERY clean and organized. And he'll prioritize your needs based on request (and a small rush charge). I don't go anywhere else! You don't need to either.

I had a couple of shoes that needed repairing so I came here. One pair needed a tap put on the shoe…read moreand the other pair was a little tight when I zipped them up so I wanted to expand them. There's no price list, and the guy just said $20 for both things, totaling $40. I was told that the shoes would be done in a couple of days. When I went back, they put the taps on my shoes but it didn't seem like anything had been done to the other pair of shoes because they fit the exact same. The man at the counter, who wasn't the same person as before, told me that he would try to add more space again and to come back in a couple more days to pick them back up. We'll see how that pair turns out. The shop was neat and tidy though.

This review addresses the pricing and not the quality of work which I understand they have been…read moreawarded for. I brought in a jumpsuit for minor underarm repairs (about 1 inch on each side) and basic cleaning. I was quoted $32 for the repairs and $25 for cleaning--a total of $57 for a single garment. They also wanted to charge $20 just to remove some lint from a coat on top of the cleaning. I did not leave the coat as the quote for cleaning and lint removal was more than the coat is now worth. It's clear these people will charge as much as they can. Unfortunately, there are few cleaners in Harlem, but at this rate, I'd rather travel across state lines to New Jersey. Ridiculous! I did not leave the coat for service, as I could not justify paying these fees. But I did pay $57 for the jumpsuit because I had to have it repaired ASAP. If you're looking for fair pricing for basic repairs or cleaning, I would suggest looking elsewhere.

Pros: (+) Fast…read more (+) Inexpensive (+) Same day service (+) Sit while you wait (+) Cute kittens Cons: (-) If your allergic to cats, he has 2 cats. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Passed by this place many times but never checked it out till now.

Had to replace the rubber on the bottom of a pair of heels that worn out. The owner was nice. He repaired them in less than 10 minutes and while I sat and waited, I played with his 2 kittens that he had walking around in his shop. The cost for the repair was $10.

I've had several pairs of men's dress shoes resoled here, on more than one occasion, and have been…read moredisappointed each time. Either the incorrect soles had been put on (rubber and instead of leather, rubber heel instead of combination) and I would constantly be wearing holes in the new "leather" soles.

I spoke with Robert who seems to run the shop (though a woman I believe was his wife also seemed to work there, and his cute toddler was asleep there too) and he quoted me 45 dollars for a massive amount of work. I had asked 2 other shops: 1 just 10 blocks north (...won't say who) quoted me 75, and the other 50. I thought maybe their quality of work would be better, but as my boots had never been cared for and were nearly 5 years old, I figured I should forego extravagance and just see if I could keep them alive for another year. Because I was still wearing them, Robert let me just wait in the shop as he worked away for about an hour on them. While I got some reading done, not only had he done the promised work, but also had fixed a tear in the inner lining and done a quick cleaning and waterproofing. From the junk heap to, again, one of my favorite pairs of fall shoes in 1 hour and for the best price in the area. If you want thoughtful work, for a great price, from a kind and deserving craftsman, this is the only place to go in the area. He also seems to have a good selection of ready-to-go shoes and shoe care accessories as well. Thanks, Robert! You have a repeat customer in me!
