I gave a honest review several yrs ago on this business however it was not pleasing to the owner…read more Instead of being a caring individual he was even ruder the next time I was in. When you think you're the only shoe repair man in town. As a business owner you have a choice to be a human or a jerk , he chose to tell me he did not want to serve me, my club foot was too difficult for his art. Talk about discrimination , sorry I was not a biker. You did me a favor. Be aware!! Keep it simple for him or he won't be able to do the job!

Randy shows skills of a master at his craft…read more I brought in a tired pair of Wolverine 1000-mile boots that had been neglected for 10+ years, asking him to replace the leather sole with a vibram half-sole. I was not prepared for the absolute show-stopper that he produced. Not only does sole look even better than what I'd expect from the factory, but he reconditioned the whole boot. These boots look better than the day I bought them. For the amazing work he puts out, I'd fully expect to pay double the price. It's obvious he puts in a huge amount of care and attention to each detail, and the professional pride absolutely comes through. I'm moving away soon but I intend to package and ship all my boots to him in the future. He is that good.

I understand that rent needs to be paid and that repair people need to make a living. It cost me $24. just after I had already paid $60 for a new sole onto the shoes. I thought if he had done it for under $15. I would have come back but for other repairs but next time I will shop around.

I am not saying good things about this business because they are some small business with a personal touch. I am also a customer who consumed some of their products and services too, and I have compared them to the large corporation stores. Corporation products have a planned obsolescence built in so their products will break down after a certain amount of times usage. That way they keep customers returning to buy more product. They have no craftmanship, just a money churning machine and you are just another customer number.
