I've had a tall pair of Ferragamo boots and Alexander McQueen ankle booties, both worn frequently…read morefor over five years. The Ferragamos had a damaged heel and some cosmetic scuffs in the black leather, while the McQueens looked fine on the surface but had soles so worn down that water seeped in whenever it rained. Romy managed to fix both pairs so they look and function like new. I'm thrilled to have my two favorite boots back. It was absolutely worth the money: he repaired both of my shoes, which retail for several hundred dollars, at just a fraction of what it would have cost me to replace them new. And all within 24 hours! I came on a Thursday afternoon and he had them ready for me Friday morning :) I will be back!

If you're in NYC and need shoe or bag repairs, you have to check out Cobbler Shoe on 225 W 23rd St…read more I had such an amazing experience there--the craftsmanship is seriously top-tier. They brought my shoes back to life and made them look incredible again. Not only are they amazing with shoes, but they do beautiful work on bags too. You can tell they really care about what they're doing and take pride in every detail. On top of that, they're some of the kindest, most welcoming people you'll meet. It's rare to find a place that combines skill, quality, and genuine kindness like this. Hands down the best shoe repair spot in town. Bring them anything that needs fixing--you won't regret it!

Paul is a wonderful, professional, responsive and caring guy that just wants to do a good job and…read moredo it well. I found him thanks to Yelp, and noticed he was local to my home and quickly reached out regarding my unfavorable damage to my vintage LV wallet. This 2004 coin purse wallet combo has seen better days, and when my wallet was rejected for repairs from the original source, I didn't want to give up on it. Paul asked me to send pictures of the damages so he could quote me properly due to the amount of work involved. We agreed on a price and even the amount I had to leave for deposit wasn't an issue. He wanted to make sure that I would trust his judgement and value his work. Paul said to give him a week and he delivered it to me in 5 days time! Be sure to always ask him what the store hours are, as he unfortunately is experiencing flood damages to his work space. How he was still able to fix this wallet for me in such dire conditions, I'll never know. He's chatty and friendly, and could use more foot traffic as this kind of work is clearly dying in the industry. He seamless repaired my coin purse compartment that kept leaking coins all over my bag, as well as the bills compartment that was fatigued. The work is perfect; beat that 5th ave! If you have a beloved leather good or wallet like me, be sure to reach out to Paul. I know that I will have this wallet for many more years to come!
