I have deemed Craig the official plastic surgeon of Cobblers because he's the only person I know…read morethat can transform a boot from utter shambles and make it look almost brand new. I recently got these boots and they've now turned into my favorite pair. Over the holidays, I went to a bar and my heel got stuck in the vent. Not once but twice in the same night! Suffice to say, the heels were wrecked! I already knew I would need the bottom repaired but wasn't sure if anything could be done about the scuffs on the heel since I've never been able to have them repaired before. I usually take them to the cobbler on Olive, but after the reading the reviews for this location and people commenting on him restoring the part of the heel I needed, I decided to give them a shot. Upon walking in, I noticed it had a similar layout to the one in Creve Coeur except it's bigger. They have a ton of various items from boot inserts, shoe stretchers, polish, and etc. Craig came out and asked how he could help. I explained that these were my favorite pair of boots and asked about getting the heel fixed. He said he could take care of it no problem, but then took it a step further and mentioned how he could probably clean the heel up as well! I was excited and intrigued, especially since no one has ever been able to do it before. He quoted me at $25.00 (paid upfront), told me what the service would entail, gave me my receipt, and said I could pick it up Tuesday. So Tuesday came and I went to pick them up. When he handed them to me, I was in utter shock. Not only did he fix the heel BUT he managed to repair the leather on the heel and eliminate the scuffs, tears, and stains. I thanked him profusely because I was so happy with what he had done. Being the humble guy he is, he said it wasn't a big deal and insists he could have done a better job. Craig literally brought my boots back to life and did it in record time! Additionally, I have the utmost respect for him since he works alone! I can't wait to have him work on more heels and boots. I can't recommend him enough.

They had some curated kitchen items that would be perfect for gift giving, other odds and ends, and some really wonderful perfumes from Oliver Fragrance Co. They had their bougie sticks and the full size bottles! I bought one of the bougie sticks (Sunset 57) which smells divine and the scent actually lasts throughout the day. Best of all, I purchased the bougie stick for $24 and the manufacturer's website have them for $22 which isn't a ridiculous price difference and I didn't have to wait or pay for shipping. They also carry B**chstix which is a brand that supports survivors of domestic abuse and is a cruelty-free product. I bought one for the friend I was meeting for dinner. The store carries many other items such as some fashion jewelry, curated baby items (clothes, books, etc), hair ties, scented candles and so much more! I am definitely going to stop by here another time since it's on my way home from work and it seems like the perfect place to find some wonderful gifts. The lady at the counter was friendly and super nice. She greeted me when I first came in and left me alone to browse. They had some sales as well. If you haven't checked this place out, you should! You never know what you'll find.

I had been considering a new piece of luggage to replace my Hartmann tweed garment bag that has…read morebeen my faithful travel companion for over 20 years and has logged over 2 million miles. It's showing it's advancing age and becoming more difficult to patch for the next adventure. I considered replacing it with another Hartmann, but upon looking at their company website, since their acquisition by Samsonite, the line has dwindled to three pieces, none like my old faithful. I started looking for other options which led me to Briggs & Riley. After watching about 3 hours of YouTube videos on their product line and studying their website, I learned they had a local dealer at West County Center, Riviera Luggage. My wife and I went to Riviera Luggage and were greeted by a gentleman, Ryan. I had my list of questions ranging from the pros and cons of domestic vs. international baggage to a number of product specific questions on the Briggs & Riley line. Ryan patiently answered all of my questions and taught me things about luggage and the product that helped us make the perfect selection. In a world of so many online options for shopping, our experience with Ryan reminded us of the pleasure of person to person interaction with someone who really knows their products and is interested in making sure they help you get the right thing, as well as establishing themselves for support after the sale. If you are a traveler, either casual or frequent, would highly recommend a visit to Riviera Luggage. Ryan is a highly knowledgeable resource and you'll definitely find something in the store, even if just a simple thing, that will make your future travel a little nicer.
