Every time I walk into his shop, I'm greeted with seeing how diligent and tired he is to do it all by himself. Unbeatable prices too. In the many years ago, I've lost count of how many pairs of shoes I've brought to him over the years, and I trust him completely with all of them--especially my favorite name-brand heels and boots. He treats every pair with such care, and I honestly hope he stays in business forever because I'm definitely going to keep him busy! I tend to wear my shoes down "like cray-cray," which always makes me think of my absolute favorite fairy tale from childhood: The 12 Dancing Princesses. You know, that story about the twelve royal sisters who would sneak out every night to dance until their shoes were worn completely through? I feel like a modern-day version of them minus the dancing lol but just daily usages, every time I drop off a bag of shoes at Iggy's! It remains one of my favorite stories to revisit--if you haven't read it lately, I highly recommend picking up a copy. It's such a charming classic!

Everything came out perfect! What I appreciated most was the turnaround time. I didn't have to wait long at all to get my items back, which was a huge plus. Fast, reliable, and high-quality service.

With that said Mr Kim gets five stars there are a few other stores a few other footwear repair and finishing locations that are going to take over 75 pairs from me within this year.

My shoes always come back looking perfect! They are incredibly knowledgeable, quick, and communicative. They tell you exactly when your shoes will be ready and even text you as soon as they're finished. I also really appreciate how they have different types of insoles for different types of shoes and how much attention they pay to every little detail. Their craftsmanship and customer service are both outstanding. If you need any kind of shoe repair, I truly cannot recommend them enough!

I brought in two vintage Coach pieces: a saddle bag purse that had been my mother's that I wanted to give to my niece and an old Day-Runner organizer. The purse has several small, dark stains inside and out that had been there for years and took away from the bag's overall beauty. I was afraid my niece would be underwhelmed with it as a gift, even though she collects vintage Coach. The Day-Runner was stored in our garage and had serious mildew inside and out. Ray's team returned them to me as good as new - even better than new, because Coach has retired these items. I couldn't believe the stains on the bag were gone with virtually no detectable change to the bag's original saddle color. Amazing work. Beyond that, Ray cares about the quality of every piece they work on - which is why he has my business from now on!

I found Rainbow via Yelp - initially for dry cleaning and also for hemming / tailoring work…read more It's super easy to drop off your items here. They have their own parking lot with free parking. Be careful not to park in their lot if you're not actually visiting the business (or the spa next door), as they have signs all over the place that clearly state that they tow vehicles. Dry cleaning only takes a few days, and hemming took less than a week. I didn't have any firm deadlines, so time wasn't of the essence, but let them know if you do and they can work with you. Keep in mind that hemming and tailoring will require you to change into the clothing on-site so that the tailor can pin the adjustments. There is a restroom in the very back for privacy - a bit tucked away and generally not for public use, but it does the trick. If you're trying to adjust pants or a dress, be sure to bring the shoes that you'll be wearing so that you have a solid idea of how the item will look once adjusted. Prices are a bit on the higher end compared to other small tailor and dry cleaning businesses that I've been to around LA. Tap to pay is your best bet for speed and convenience. The gentleman who owns and operates the shop is personable, efficient and polite. He has a huge fish tank and quite a lot of fun decor.

I'm on my feet a lot and didn't want to buy new shoes for work, especially with the rising costs,…read moreso I decided to have a couple worn out pairs repaired. I live in my work loafers and they were coming apart at the toe all the way to the arch, and were also in desperate need of new insoles. Since they were nicely broken in after 2 years of constant wear, I took them to Carson Shoe Repair, and within the week they were seemingly brand new. George, the owner, did a great job! My loafers look and feel incredible. With the repair and insole replacement, (which was much better than buying a Dr. Scholl from a big box store), I did spend a couple nice pennies, but I felt it was totally worth it. Both pairs of shoes have been holding up nicely. I loved that George even shined and cleaned them up. Hopefully, the repair will last me another 2 years, especially in today's economy. If you are in need of a good shoe repair, be sure to give George a call.

I noticed this shop took over the old One Hour Photo that had been here for decades, but closed. It's in the CVS shopping center, right next to Noah's Bagels. I took my shoes in, the proprietor and shoe repairman came out from the back. He gave me a quote of $30 to re-glue both heels. I took them in on a Saturday. He asked me if Friday was okay? I said yes and paid in advance. He gave me a copy of my receipt and stapled it to the ticket. Not too talkative, but he's a busy guy. He has quite the workshop back there, behind the counter. From the front, you can see his work bench and machinery. When I came back, there was a line. I also noticed there was a significant volume of shoes that were repaired and ready for pickup. I gave him my ticket, which he used to pull the plastic bin my shoes were in. Yay, new glue. I'm happy. I noticed he repairs purses, so that may be next on my list. He also sells merchandise. Ie Shoelaces and insoles.

For those of you who are from this area, and/or may remember, this business is located in the same location that used to be the one hour photo forever. The one hour photo is long gone, but this business has taken over the space. Once inside, you'll find a whole lot of shoelaces. I find this really helpful, if you really want to get some colorful shoelaces, or a very specific type of shoelace, this business probably has it hanging on the wall. Great stuff! Mainly, most people come in here to get their shoes repaired. FYI, this business also does luggage and purse repair, extra key creation, and a few other things, as well. We went to this business to have a pair of shoes repaired. Basically, the processes is, the owner takes a look at what needs to be done, tells you a price, you pay it upfront, and then you come to pick up your shoes when they are done. For us, it was one week later. This all seems very fair and very reasonable. So, if you need some shoes repaired, or some luggage repaired, or even want a great set of shoelaces, this is your business to go to.
