    Came here to drop Off some boots I needed shine. He charged $25 bucks for the first shine and $15 for any after that. I was in no rush so I picked them up in a week. There's a driveway where you can park since he's located on a busy street and with a red zone so no parking. You fill out a paper and you can call him to check if your shoes are ready. Very nice guy. He had lots of boots there which goes to show he did a great job.

    Have these really nice but scuffed up dress shoes that would work great with my wedding suit (!) - took em to Freddy, and these things look good as new! Fast. Friendly. Freddy is the real deal.

    Shout out to Freddy. I have been searching high and low for a new shoeshine specialist once my regular guy changed careers. I found Freddy here on yelp and decided to pull up. He works out of small house / business located on an Inglewood Ave. (Be sure to slow down or you'll miss it). Freddy is extremely professional and enthusiastic about his craft. I've taken my boots to him twice over the past few months and remained impressed. The first shine is more expensive than the follow-up shines. If you choose not to wait, he can get the boots back to you within a couple of days. Give him a shot! (I did not give him 5 stars because his location is out of the way for me. If he were more local, I'd give him 5 stars.)

    My boots have gone through the tribulations of being worn by a barista at a high volume coffee store. So they've had about everything dropped on them from: water, milk, coffee, to different juices. All while not being maintained. I took the boots to Freddy's. I swear I saw him shed a single tear for these used and abused boots and he told me he'd do everything in his power to breath new life into them....and he did. I forget the price, but it was affordable and reasonable for this monstrosity to be tamed. Fast and great service.

    I found this place on Yelp. I bought some new boots and needed them shined. It looks like a small house connected to group of houses. The gentleman that works there was amazing. He told me where to park and my turn around service was only one day. I dropped my boots Thursday and they were ready on Friday. Great customer service!!!! I will return and send people his way.

    Freddy has been my go-to guy for years because of his high quality shine. He used to be based at the LAPD academy but now has his own spot. Easy parking and comfortable seats. Also, he can shine any shoe, not just the work boots. And he's a great guy.

    Iggy is more than just a talented cobbler; he is an absolute legend! He and his shop have been…read morearound for 20-40 years or so. Every time I walk into his shop, I'm greeted with seeing how diligent and tired he is to do it all by himself. Unbeatable prices too. In the many years ago, I've lost count of how many pairs of shoes I've brought to him over the years, and I trust him completely with all of them--especially my favorite name-brand heels and boots. He treats every pair with such care, and I honestly hope he stays in business forever because I'm definitely going to keep him busy! I tend to wear my shoes down "like cray-cray," which always makes me think of my absolute favorite fairy tale from childhood: The 12 Dancing Princesses. You know, that story about the twelve royal sisters who would sneak out every night to dance until their shoes were worn completely through? I feel like a modern-day version of them minus the dancing lol but just daily usages, every time I drop off a bag of shoes at Iggy's! It remains one of my favorite stories to revisit--if you haven't read it lately, I highly recommend picking up a copy. It's such a charming classic!

    Probably not the absolute lowest rates you can find but they are fair for the good quality work…read morethat Ignacio delivers. He is respectful and pleasant so there is nothing else to be desired and I will definitely return for future work. -Cash only -Looks like he gets busy so it's ideal to drop off items well in advance of any dates you may need them for. It was a week to replace the caps on a pair of my high heels.

They have their own parking lot with free parking. Be careful not to park in their lot if you're not actually visiting the business (or the spa next door), as they have signs all over the place that clearly state that they tow vehicles. Dry cleaning only takes a few days, and hemming took less than a week. I didn't have any firm deadlines, so time wasn't of the essence, but let them know if you do and they can work with you. Keep in mind that hemming and tailoring will require you to change into the clothing on-site so that the tailor can pin the adjustments. There is a restroom in the very back for privacy - a bit tucked away and generally not for public use, but it does the trick. If you're trying to adjust pants or a dress, be sure to bring the shoes that you'll be wearing so that you have a solid idea of how the item will look once adjusted. Prices are a bit on the higher end compared to other small tailor and dry cleaning businesses that I've been to around LA. Tap to pay is your best bet for speed and convenience. The gentleman who owns and operates the shop is personable, efficient and polite. He has a huge fish tank and quite a lot of fun decor.
