Once in there is a counter ahead and the staff are really friendly and welcoming - you feel like one of their friends. They are brilliant when you need repairs done to your boots and shoes and will try to get your items ready for you as quickly as possible if you are in a hurry, alternatively you can call back for them. They sell laces and shoe creams etc and do repairs to other items such as belts. Shame there isn't one of these on every high street so we didn't have to constantly buy new.

A pair of tall boots bought for my girlfriend as a Christmas present were a little too tall for her diminutive frame and so I was looking to get around half an inch taken off the top. The shoemaker in question was quick to point out it was not an easy job, as they are machined leather throughout, but he would give it his best shot. However the resulting job was perfect, exactly as requested and very well finished and stitched. The price was only £15 and they were back within two days. I think the exclamation mark in their name is warranted after all.

It was a pleasure to nip in here the other day with my Mum. I'd not planned to pop in, but she saw…read morethe shoe sign and made a bee-line for the door. Before I knew it we were discussing the ins and outs of suede and leather care with the lovely chap inside. He explained that for leathers it was a simple case of protecting with polish, but suede on the other hand was another issue. He in fact said he could end up selling us fifty pounds worth of care products, all of which we'd use fully, just to protect our shoes. So, an expensive thing to look after it seems! Nonetheless we simply made a purchase of some hardy looking suede protector spray and ended up having a lovely bit of banter in the meantime. As I looked around at the array of different items this place has on sale I was reminded just what a jack of all trades this cute little shop is. Need some make up? Plenty of cheap basket items check. Need a keyring? Check. Shoe care items? Check. And so on. A really handy shop with a lovely bloke to help you out!

It's been there for years and I think it's just a little family run business. Generally a shoe repair shop but it also does other jobs such as makes up dog collar tags, makes up numbers for your houses or little plaques with your house name on etc. They also take links out your watches as we found. Usually there is only one person serving behind the counter and they tend to deal with one person at a time, finishing a job before they move onto the next person so you may have to wait a while. They are quick and efficient though so you'll soon be served and out the way. The other thing is, is they're cheap. We've only ever been to have links taken out of a watch but it still only cost us £5, wheras it costs £10 in jewellers. The staff are really friendly and don't mind having a chat with you, very good service!

Last week I noticed my right foot was a bit damp so thought that's it. Off to the cobblers I go. Shoerenew in Horsforth is not a place you go willingly. They mend shoes and you'd rather have a pair of new shoes or boots but I do love these boots and times are hard. The chap in there really knows his stuff. I've been to him many times before. My boots (that I love) were really neglected but he really does have the Midas touch. He re-heeled them and put me a new sole all for under £20! My favourite boots are wonderful again and I can't wait to wear them tomorrow (and I hope it rains!). Well done Shoerenew man. You're worth your weight in gold.
