I have a pair of espadrilles that need some stitches on the sides. And it turned out it has to be done by hand. No machine can do that. They really did a good job there! The stitches matched the old one and the price is super reasonable! Will definitely come back again! read more

For the longest time since I've been living in Pasadena - from my days living in Culver's city I've been looking for a shoe repair shop. I finally found it. Lucy the owner is a kind soul and super friendly. I felt extremely comfortable and now they got my business. I literally was leaving out town and my boots were fixed right the next day with brand new heels. Reasonable prices. read more

Had such a lovely experience here! The owner of this place is so kind of helpful. I needed a same-day repair and she was able to fit me into their busy work schedule. Additionally, the craftsmanship is amazing and the cobbler really knows what he's doing. I needed the sling back on my heels to be tighter and instead of just resizing the elastic, he took the time to resize it properly to ensure I can easily fit into my shoe. We will definitely be coming here from now on. The price is super reasonable and service is amazing. read more

Shoetorium Shoe Repair - Got the sling back on my heels adjusted - Shoe Repair Near Me - Pasadena, California

Had the best experience with Shoetorium! I lost the heel cap on a pair of heels I loved, so I brought them to Shoeotorium to see if they could be repaired. They got my shoes fixed quickly and for an extremely reasonable price. When I got my shoes back, not only did they fix the shoe cap, but they also took the time to shine my shoes and glue down a part that was lifting - they look brand new!! This will be my new spot for shoe repairs and are the kindest people ever. Thank you!! read more

I'd definitely recommend to get your shoes repaired here! I had some boots that were terribly cracked at the sole and they did a great job replacing them. They look great and feel like they will last me a long time. They have reasonable prices & great customer service. I had a lot of questions when I brought my shoes in and they delivered on what they could do. I'm glad I came here. I don't have photos of what my shoes looked like before, but portions of the sole were cracked enough for liquid to seep through. read more

Happy to recommend this business. They stretched my shoes, and I find walking to be much more comfortable.

Nicest owners. Explain everything and don't try and upsell. Great job on the repairs.

Quick, friendly service. The quality of their work was good, shows back in the closet for the rotation. Thank you. read more

Lucy was so so sweet! I brought in 5 pairs of suede shoes looking to get them scotch guarded for my trip to Europe! She got them done in 2 days and was there when I picked them up. Very fair pricing as well. No attitude, just a sweet business woman who works hard and loves her customers. Will be back for sure! read more

The loveliest people and they do excellent work. The best place in town to help with bags and shoes!

I found Shoetorium on Yelp and I will agree with all the 5 star reviews. What a great find. The place is sort of a hole in the wall but the work is really great. Last visit was for an 'Emergency'. My son soccer cleats have a rubber-band to hold the tongue in place that goes below the sole and it broke. Showed up on a Saturday at 3.30pm explaining he had a game the next day, at 4.30pm it was fixed. You can't beat that, and the price was right. My wife used a different shoe repair place in town that sort of lost its primo work quality over the years and she also switched to Shoetorium. Had heals replaced, broken leather straps replaced, etc.....all 5 stars. read more

This is the spot to bring your shoes in for repair! I have taken a few of my boots in and have been satisfied with the results. You may need to wait a bit as they are quite busy and popular, but it's worth the wait. Good craftsmanship and they take pride in their work and charge a reasonable price for the amount of work they put in. I just got my knee high boots back, and they were able to replace all the bottom parts of the boots. They also gave it a nice polish. Lucy is friendly and knowledgeable. Street parking or parking in the rear lot. Highly recommended. Support local small business :) read more

Excellent quality of repair. I went in to have repaired a rain boot that had been chewed up by one of my dogs. The top edge of the boot was damaged and the pull to help slip my foot in was gone. Shoetorium did a fantastic job with the repair. My middling rating is for 2 things: one is that they told me several times things like "I'll call you tomorrow to tell you the cost" or "I'll call you next week when it's fixed." These things didn't happen. I had to call them proactively to find out the info they had promised. The second thing is that they ONLY TAKE CASH. This turns one errand into 2 as I now have to go and get cash, which I don't carry because it's 2024. I would gladly pay the 90 cent service charge for paying by card (the bill was $30, which is excellent value). They said they "tried a card machine one time, but didn't like it." With excellent work and excellent value for money, I suggest they consider adding excellent service to their business. I will be going back, and I'll make sure to have cash with me next time. read more

I brought in a pair of birkenstocks my dog ate and i thought they were beyond repair. They charged a very reasonable price and the shoes came back looking brand new. Front desk was super sweet. read more

I came in a couple days ago for my client with 5 pairs of shoes. Lucy helped me and was very kind and patient in answering all of my questions. The shop is conveniently located on walnut in Pasadena. I had a bit of a hard time finding it but was able to park my car a little ways away and walk to the shop. They do good work at reasonable prices. Thank you Lucy! Thank you Shoetorium! read more

I needed a good polish on my Gucci boots that were scuffed and somewhat dull. Glad that I found Lucy and Shoetorium on Yelp since it was close enough from home. It only took a day for her to buff and polish my boots before I got them back, which look new again! Lucy is "old school" so she'll only take cash or check - $25 for a job well done! read more

Lucy and co. do a fantastic job with my shoes. I've been coming here for a couple of years, and her work is consistently excellent and very reasonably priced. It's a family shop, not fancy, but with a pride in doing quality work. And while you're there, check out the artisan shirts, gift cards and tote bags made by her daughter. read more

This is the only place I trust with my designer and vintage! The prices are fair and the work is unmatched. They resoled a pair of torn flats I thought had seen their last day. And on top of all that, Lucy always calls when things are ready to be picked up. Old school places like this are hard to come by. I recommend Shoetorium to everyone I know! read more

Lucy is just an incredible human! She's so kind and does such incredible work. I had these darn cowboy boots (which were over $200) that were needing to be stretched out. I have tried everything but nothing worked. I decided to visit Shoetorium were I met Lucy. She took her time, asked questions, and went into details as to what she needed to do. This woman is incredibly hard working and did a great job! I will absolutely be returning for any repairs I need in the future. Her valuable work ethics are outstanding! If you ever need shoe repairs, please support this business! read more

Great job on my Grandson's cowboy boots! They were able to darken boots and remove red tone. Very pleased!

My pair of Chanels needed cleaning really bad. I obviously didnt want it do it myself because I know I will ruin the shoes. While I was out running errands with Mom, I yelped and found this shop which was closest from where I was. I parked right in front of the shop and walked in and the owner greeted me right away. She seemed really friendly and nice. I explained what service I needed and I told her if cleaning is going to ruin the leather or discolor it, to give me a call and let me know. I mean its leather. So she clearly understood and she also was nice enough to let me pick up the day after because I had to wear these shoes this weekend. My shoes look clean and theres no dirty spot on the back of my shoes which has bothered me for the longest time. I'm hoping it stays this way for awhile because I do not wear these pair as often as before. I am super satisfied with the service and I am so glad Yelp has randomly recommended another great place to me and I will be back here for future cleaning or any issues with other shoes. Owner is very very kind and understanding. She will try her best to accommodate you as best as possible. read more

Friendly service and great prices. I needed to have a flap on my leather Piloti Prototipo GT's restitched, along with various outsoles to be glued back on. I was quite pleased when Lucy quoted my repair at only $20. The shoes were repaired in a day so the price and speed of the service was perfect for me. Shoes seem to be as good as new now. read more

Excellent shoe and handbag repair. They replaced the heels of my Chelsea boots and created a new handle for my leather Tory Burch handbag. Each service was $30 each. Cash only! Excellent craftsmanship! read more

Old fashioned shoe repair service. They did a great job putting new heels on my patent leather loafers and restitching my Kizic's on the side. Prompt and open on Sunday. I had both pairs back earlier than expected and in time for my trip! Very reasonable pricing. read more

They have done a great job with all the shoe repairs I have brought in so far. One of my leather sneakers' thread came off- they repaired it perfectly, I can't even tell where it's been fixed. The other repairs are for the rubber pieces on my heels and they did a great job with those as well. The owners are very pleasant and hard working. They are quite prompt with their service too, especially considering how everything is done by hand. Grateful for small businesses like these that deliver high quality service and work. read more

This was the first time I've ever had shoes repaired and I am so happy! I needed a pair of high-heeled sandals fixed. They were friendly and helpful. The service was so fast and the price seemed really fair. Highly recommend! FYI, they only take cash and they like 50% of the cost paid up front. read more

My Doc Martens were falling apart at the sole. Docs are difficult to resole, but Shoetorium was able to do it, and they look better and feel better than the original soles. The original sole was heavy, clunky, and that weird off-yellow color. But now because of the vibrant sole, they're lightweight and the black sole just looks so much better. Lucy is an angel, very sweet woman who runs the front. She was very communicative and professional. read more

Lucy is absolutely amazing. She made my Givenchy shoes better than new and it was even more affordable than other places! Saving my shoes was the best decision ever! read more

Fantastic repair work that I was told could not be done by 3 different shoe repair places!!! Shoetorium exceeded my expectations!! Thank you for the beautiful work which was done at a fair, reasonable price!! read more

Shoetorium is awesome! I've been here twice. The first time I had some really cheap heels (known to have the heel break off easily) reinforced so I don't suffer an embarrassing mishap mid-graduation on stage lol. I also had anti-slip grips added on the base. It was super fast and the price was way less than I expected. Second time, I had a really nice pair of boots stretched. They came slightly narrow (I have narrow feet!) and I already sized up knowing that. I couldn't go any larger or else my toes would be swimming, so I called and asked if they could stretch it out for me. It cost $12! And it was done within 2 days. The owner is super nice and they're really kind, honest people. read more

I am really disappointed with how my shoes turned out. I gave them two pairs to do: one needed a polish, and the other needed new heels. The polished one looks fine, nothing special, but they weren't too bad to begin with. The heeled ones look awful. They were a pair of black boots with a slight heel that I had worn through. When I gave them the boots, the bottoms were a light brown wood color (the heel, the sole, and the sides that were visible of that). Now they are black. Why?! They made no mention of this to me when giving them back, nor did they call me at all through the process to say something like "hey we only have black heels for the replacement, is that ok?" Because I would have said "no" and taken my shoes elsewhere. Instead, they did this without asking, and now it can't be changed. I will not be going back here. read more

Lovely owners - very friendly. They just have reopened after losing their lease at their old place. Their new place is at Hill and Walnut, at 1188 East Walnut Avenue. In addition to shoes, they also repair leather handbags and shorten straps and belts. Highly recommended! read more

Shoetorium Shoe Repair - New location! - Shoe Repair Near Me - Pasadena, California

Don't be fooled by surrounding five-star rated places. This place won't look like much on the inside or outside. However, this is it. Lucy knows how to invest that one-on-one time with the customer and ensures the care and meticulous work that will be done for your shoes. If you like the customer-to-owner relationships to make you feel at ease when dropping off your goods, you'll enjoy Shoetorium. I've brought some serious work here. Carol Christian Poell has an unorthodox way of creating each shoe where one could question the design's stability. I assure you, this place figured out a way to still protect my precious collectibles. This is where I would take my footwear that is actually worth investing in. The only thing I would comment on is that they are sometimes limited on their supplies because it is a small-owned business. read more

Can't say enough nice about this place. I took my dads Gucci briefcase in to repair bottom and remove initials. Fixed withing 2 days and even cleaned up, looks like new. Prices are down right reasonable. This place is awesome. read more

Lucy at Shoetorium is really helpful and did a great job making sure my purse (needed some leather repair work) as well as my new Birkenstocks (needed a quarter inch heel lift on the right shoe) were done correctly. The price for both was very reasonable. The wait is well worth it. I highly recommend Shoetorium! read more

A wonderful place in the neighborhood run by a kind lady and her family friend. Not only can they fix shoes, but they also offer other repair services! I recently visited the shop with a stroller seat fabric had a large tear on the side. After searching online for a replacement seat with no luck, I decided to give this place a try. The owner was extremely helpful and took the fabric in right away, knowing that I needed it urgently. To my surprise, they were able to fix it perfectly on the same day, and at a very reasonable price. My child is almost outgrowing the stroller, so I was thrilled to have found a place that could fix it and make it last for another year. I can't thank the owner enough for her excellent service and friendly demeanor. This shop is definitely a hidden gem in the neighborhood and a must-visit for anyone in need of repair services. read more

They did a wonderful job with my boot repair, and it was not the run of the mill repair. I had melted the front of the rubber sole on a friends fire pit. They look brand new. The price was so reasonable, and they were ready when they said they would be. read more
