The latter, they not only fixed the scratches, but matched the turquoise dye perfectly! *see pictures The other shoes were repaired brilliantly as well. The folks here are awesome and very straightforward with pricing. The price is reasonable. I don't know how they are with speed, as I've always told them to take as much time as needed. I like how they offer repair services outside of leather shoes, it's a great place to take any of your leather goods that need repair.

When I arrived, I immediately noticed several pairs of Louboutin's which let me know, George's is the place to go in Minneapolis! The service drop off was so easy and I had been given the time frame of 2 weeks. Exactly 2 weeks later, I got a call and picked them up! The red sole protector they use really is a perfect match to the classic red. So incredibly happy with this experience and look forward to bringing more shoes their way!

I took a before photo and after photo. I spilled Windex on my boots that left an ugly stain. When I brought them in, I was told two weeks and he asked if I wanted anything else done besides taking care of the stain. I asked his recommendations and he pointed the heels (under) were worn down and that he could take care of some of the scratches on the front near the toes. Two weeks would be tomorrow but I figured I'd see if they were ready. The phone number went to voicemail and it gave clear instructions to contact by text for questions and that hours on Google Maps is accurate. I didn't receive a response by text so I decided to head to the store. He was actually putting the finishing touches on my boots at that moment. Brother felt alive again! I am pleased with the final product I will come back for future needs I do recommend I paid about $75.00 up front and I feel pretty dang good to have my swag back

I guess my questionable mountaineering skills must have made him nervous! Heimie's hero was just the Sherpa guide I needed for my mini-Everest expedition. I can't thank him enough for helping, especially since he wasn't even wearing any winter gear...just his fancy shmancy suit. Heimie's snowbank conqueror was so impeccably dressed that I'm sold on purchasing a bow tie here for my six-year-old nephew very soon. He will be going on his first official chaperoned ice cream date with a young lady determined to marry him in the future, and he specifically requested a bow tie for the event. Clearly there is a lot at stake for this very serious date, so he will need a dapper tie that is sure to impress! No pressure, Heimie's, no pressure.

You can get a straight razor shave or a traditional men's fedora. With a bit of notice, they can tailor clothes or fix a torn shirt/suit. I think they even sell cigars. I spent about 30 mins looking at shirts/pants/ties (!!!), got a few recommendations, and made my purchases. Heimie's has a good selection of high quality men's clothing at reasonable prices. The staff could not possibly have been nicer. It's unlikely I'll ever need to come back but I wouldn't hesitate to do so.
