Do you know the old saying, men have one pair of brown shoes and one pair of black shoes? (Except for me, I have shoes that razzle dazzle) The reason why men have shoes for decades, there are shoe repair spots like The Shoe Fits to keep our favorite shoes going the distance. Not only does The Shoe Fits repair shoes, they sell high end brands of footwear. My wife needed a heel replacement on her shoes, I said I only trust The Shoe Fits with this type of shoe repair. I dropped her shoes off over the weekend and were available the following weekend. My wife was thinking about buying another pair of shoes! The heel was replaced and I was told they felt like new again. If you need a great work boot, The Shoe Fits is an authorized Red Wing Boots retailer. read more

The Shoe Fits - New heels! - Shoe Stores Near Me - Miller Place, New York

Once again, after researching boots for weeks, I walked out with something I didn't even consider. Nick and co. Showed me what I wanted to see, but then improved dramatically on what I thought I wanted. I wanted side zip boots. Walked out with the king toe BOA easy dial, and after a week, of wearing these, it's my new favorite thing. These are more comfortable than my last style, and have the ease of keeping them loose while driving and not tripping on my laces when I get out. Grand slam once again Nick. Ty so much. read more

The Shoe Fits - Tuff toe and eyelet mod performed by TSF - Shoe Stores Near Me - Miller Place, New York

For the last decade I've had the great pleasure of receiving the finest cobbling craftsmanship in America. I require 3 cm lift on my left boot and here's an example of how it sometimes goes; redwing shoes and boots does the work in house, I received the boots and they're virtually unwearable due to extremely poor craftsmanship, at which point I take them back to the red wing shoe store and they send them to the A-Team ....- Lenny Passiglia @ The Shoe Fits. When I receive the boots back from The Shoe Fits, they are perfect! I am fortunate to have this craftsmanship still available. Thank you Lenny for all your fine work. read more

I have taken a number of leather goods here for repair. The first was a Madewell handbag that came with defective hardware (a lobster clasp that was constantly coming undone). I emailed Madewell about this and they approved up to $50 of repair that they would reimburse me for once I sent them my receipt, so I brought my bag to The Shoe Fits based on the fact that they have been around for a long while and they have good reviews working with leather. A very nice woman informed me she would not be able to get the exact same hardware but it would be a similar piece that she would use with a matching bronze finish. About a week later, I got the bag back and the results were wonderful! The repair involved undo-ing the stitching on the leather strap, putting in the new lobster claw clasp, and then stitching the leather strap again, and the results are beautiful and professional, you can't even tell it wasn't made that was from the start. The repair was about $40 (for two lobster claw clasps), which was ultimately absorbed by Madewell. Then I brought two pairs of leather boots. My brown Frye boots had the heels worn down and were very scuffed up. My black Italian made boots had unfortunately been worn past the heel into the heel base (was a total mess). The man who I spoke to at The Shoe Fits recommended not only replacing the heels but also putting on new soles at the forefoot for better traction as everything was pretty heavily worn. It was $110 for both pairs, took a week, and everything looks brand new as you can see in the photos. I should have taken a "before picture." I think the black boots were $65 because they had to do the work on the heel base as well as add the new heels and rubber soles; the brown boots were $45 for heels and rubber soles. The scuffs and scratches were also cleaned up. I am very satisfied with the quality of work, pricing, efficiency, and communication, would highly recommend, and will be back for future repairs. It's worth the investment if you have good quality leather as these boots will last me decades! read more

I love this store. I buy my New Balance sneakers here a couple times a year and the people there still remember me! The staff is so friendly and helpful, most of all owner Lenny! Customer service here is #1. Customer for life. read more

The shoes I am wearing today were purchased from Lenny in 1997. They are J & M Wing Tip shoes and have been maintained by Lenny and kept in fantastic condition to this day. When I first met Lenny he was in a small store in Port Jefferson, NY with one employee. Today he has two large stores in Miller Place, NY. He must have over 10 employees. read more

Working with Lenny, Jesse and Family has been a great experience! My Dad started using Lenny's Father back in the 70's. That's when the store was in Port Jefferson. My husband and I started in 1984! The personality has not changed only the selection has gotten bigger. Thanks to everyone in Miller Place!!!!! read more

I've been going to The Shoe Fits for a number of years. I must say the service has been going down hill. Some months ago, I had a simple heel lift put on my wife's pump and it immediately fell out. It seems the immediate family is no longer as involved and the service decline shows. I went last week and spoke with two women behind the counter who were tripping over each other. I asked a repair question and they both went to the back to consult with the repairman. They came out and told me that what I asked for could not be done. I then asked a follow up question and without the courtesy of even asking the shoe repair man, they responded that it too could not be done. How frustrating. It was as if they were afraid to approach "the great and powerful Oz" who sat in the back room! It was laughable! Anyway, I took my shoes to Lenny's Shoe Repair in Port Jeff Station and he made the repair in two days! The repair is perfect. read more

Shoe Fits (also known as "Red Wing Shoes") has been around for as long as I can remember. They happen to be in the same strip mall as Blond restaurant, one of my favorite places for a decent din din. The Shoe Fits is a fantastic place where you can get anything leather fixed for a very reasonable price. I've had my husband's shoes repaired after the dog mistook them for a chew toy. They've also fixed my Dooney & Burke bag after one of the rivets came off. The quality of the work is exceptional. They also sell high quality foot wear. What a local gem. read more

I've been shopping here for years. Excellent customer service all around. They have a huge repair shop in back. Lenny has done a great job of turning a shoe store into a destination shop. Both work and play. read more

During a recent visit to Long Island, I found I needed new heels on my shoes. I dropped off my shoes on a Friday afternoon and discussed my plan to wear the shoes on Saturday evening. The sales associate confirmed they would be ready for Saturday and that someone would call me on Saturday between 2:00p.m. and 5:00p.m. when they were ready. I am confident the cost included an expedited fee. On Saturday, by 5:05p.m., I had not received a call, so I called The Shoe Fits. When they answered, I was advised the shop was closed. I politely described the scenario and was told someone would wait for me if I was on my way. I said I would arrive in 20 minutes. They called while we were traveling to reconfirm my arrival time. When I arrived, I was greeted by a gentleman who said, "You know you made me half an hour late for a family engagement." Surprised, I simply thanked him and explained I was waiting for the call. He rudely told me I could have called at anytime than reprimanded me for a) calling at 5:05p.m. and b) subsequently making him late. Again, I attempted to reiterate his sales associates statements on Friday and the fact that I was not at fault. He again reminded me that he had to wait 30 minutes for me and was now late for a family engagement. At this point, frustrated by his rude behavior and accusatory words and tones, I exited the establishment with my shoes in tow. He never understood or accepted the fact that his establishment was at fault and never apologized. If this is how The Shoe Fits treats its customer, I can assure you, I will find a more customer supportive, positive, and respectful shoe repair shop and recommend you do the same. This is no way to treat a paying, respectful customer. read more
