I brought my pocketbook in for a repair of the handle. The price was reasonable and the service was excellent. It was ready before the scheduled pick up time. read more

If "good for nothing" was a business, it would be Gary's Shoe Repair!! My visits to Gary's Shoe Repair have been a complete waste of time, and shows there complete lack of capabilities. On two separate occasions, I brought in shoes for repairs that I'm confident most cobblers could easily handle. However, each time, the response from the lady at the front was a shrug and an unhelpful "there's nothing we can do, sorry!" This business is either staffed by lazy people or simply lacks the fundamental knowledge and skills to provide even basic shoe repair services. This place also operates as a combination shoe repair and disc golf shop. This gives the impression that the shoe repair aspect is not taken seriously whatsoever. It seems more like a casual venture to "make money any way they can" rather than a dedicated, professional cobbler service. If you're looking for competent shoe repair, go somewhere elsewhere! read more

It's hard for me to find comfortable shoes so I had lifts put on a pair I wanted to wear a little longer. It cost about 1/2 of what another pair would have cost. The work is good and they were ready when I expected. I'd take another pair but will check the price of getting a new pair first. read more

Gary is terrific! He fixed my heels quickly- and at the right price. I love those suede pumps. Gary brought them back to life. No muss no fuss. read more

I read a lot of good things about this store so I took a pair of fashion boots in for a much-needed cleaning and polishing. I received a claim ticket which is standard procedure in order to get my boots back. However, when I went in to get my boots back I was met with sarcasm by a young man who is either the owner or a relative of the owner. He could not find my boots and insisted I give details. I thought it was ridiculous because most men have no clue about women's fashions. I had a ticket and just because their so-called system is not organized to find their customers property should not be my problem. They did a great job, but I could have done without the nasty attitude. read more

They also sell wood here. Lots of great choices Walnut, Maple,Cherry, Ash, Poplar, red heart, Purple Heart, Cedar. Prices are great they have everything from short pieces for small projects to huge slabs for custom tables. I have been buying wood from them for the last year and have always had great customer service. read more

Gary's Shoe Repair - I can spend way to much time in here looking three all the wood for my custom projects. - Shoe Repair Near Me - Jacksonville, North Carolina

Had the inside of the heel backs repaired on an old pair of Dr. Martens that I wear everyday. They did a great job and had them done within a few days. Cost me $30, which I thought was a great value considering new ones are well over a hundred bills. read more

This family run shop has been around for ages and continues to provide excellent service in shoe and boot repair, re-soling, etc., and some leather work as well. There may be other shoe repair shops in J'ville, but none better. Rather incongruously Gary's is now apparently also the "Disk Golf Pro Shop" (since "Frisbee Golf" is, I'd guess, the trademarked property of Whammo). I love oddly eclectic little shops. Whatever works. Now if I could just find that picture of mama's new non-skid heels. read more

Do not expect a modern building, or fancy setup inside. It's a little bit cluttered with the smell of Lincoln shoe polish in the air. Do expect top notch repairs, customer services and employee knowledge. Because that's exactly what you will get from Gary's. Local business with a large amount of products made in the USA. Just the way it should be! read more

They are a family owned shoe repair business and always friendly. Took an old leather jacket there that was faded and they restored it back to looking very nice! read more

These guys sell wood and it is phenomenal! I can't say enough about how excellent and professional they are. Extremely competitive pricing, and they even planned and jointed the wood free of charge. I build furniture in my off time and these guys are my go-to for wood. Don't waste your money at Lowe's or Home Depot! These guys are the way to go!!! read more

They are honest folks thats what I know. Sometimes they fix my shoes and sometimes they tell me it that the repair price would better be spent on a new pair instead. I like that. They will be honest and let me know if I will get my money worth out of the repair or not. I do hate wasting money. Glad they are still in business cause the shoe repair shop where I live has closed down after coronavirus. read more

Great shoe repair shop! They stretched out my Clark's shoes which I absolutely loved in the store but when I got them home I found they were too tight. I took them into Gary's and they stretched them and now I can wear them all day without hurting my feet. read more

I'm more the happy with all the work I've had done at Gary's shoe repair. Great family owned business with a very knowledgeable staff!

I had a pair of dress shoes resoled and they did outstanding work. They were fished with my shoes and polished them within three days at a reasonable price. They also have a nice selection of work boots for sale. I would highly recommend Gary's to anyone in need of shoe our boot repair. The small staff is friendly and helpful. read more
