    Cap Replace

    I took my dance shoes to replace the heel cap on the end of the shoe. In two days he was done. The service was easy and friendly. I will be back again.

    What a great little shoe repair shop and very efficient and reasonable. I have dropped my shoes off here twice while I town visiting and both times my favorite shoes were repaired. First time seeing on the side at the seams second time my heal broke and he repaired both I recommend this little shop to anyone that needs repairs.

    I have been using this guy for many years and I can't believe I have not stopped by to review this place! Not only will your item be repaired for a reasonable price, but he works his magic in no time, for I have never waited more than 24 hours on anything I have brought his way. He has revamped heel after heel of mine (am I hard on shoes?) and most recently my 30 year old Louis Vuitton purse given to me as a college graduation gift from my mother. Could I have gone to the Louis V store here in Dallas to get my backpack strap restored? Yes, but I chose Walter's Shoe Repair because I needed it back for an upcoming trip quick, fast, and in a hurry for a good price. The owner is very sweet, so please be nice to him. I'll continue to use his services until he has fixed everything of mine. Say hello to his cute little dog(s) too!

    He put new soles on a pair of ladies flats for me. He did a great job and I was very pleased!

    Excellent work and accommodated my need to have my boots a day early. My father-in-law passed away & we had to fly to Ohio for the funeral.

    He really knows what he is doing. Needed some shoes to have a little more room in the toe box and…read moreit was done perfectly. Yes the shop is small and a little messy but I only care about the quality and it is there.

    I dropped off my shoes two weeks ago in preparation to have them ready for my birthday. When I came…read morein (on my birthday) to pick them up (a week later than he said they would be ready) it was a mess. I was inside for 15 minutes before he even knew I was there. I called "hello?" twice with no response. The only reason he saw me is because he was on a phone call and happened to walk past the waiting area. When I told him I was picking up my shoes, he couldn't find them!!! It took 10 minutes of him looking AND me pulling up photos of the shoes before he found them in a bag on the floor. Here's the worst part... HE HADN'T EVEN FIXED THE SHOES!!!!!!!! It was two weeks of my shoes sitting on the floor! He said that it would take him 10 minutes to fix the shoes and asked if I could wait. I did wait, only because I wanted my shoes back and to get OUT OF THERE. While I was inside, another man walked in to pick up his shoes on the day he was told to (Wednesday) by the man who works here. The man who works here said that his shoes would be ready NEXT WEEK despite telling the man they would be ready today. Unprofessional, untimely, and overall THE worst experience I've had with any repair shop. If you need shoes repaired, I suggest you go elsewhere. I will not be returning.

    I drove to Rico's Shoe Services to get a quote for a bag repair and was disappointed with the…read moreexperience. When I entered the store, nobody was at the front counter for about 40 seconds to a minute. After waiting, I finally called out to see if anyone was there. Eventually, I was helped by the owner's son, but he was unable to provide a quote for the repair. I suggested that he take a quick photo of the bag and send it to his father so I wouldn't have to make another trip just to receive pricing information. In today's digital age, where photos and videos are commonly used for estimates and consultations, this seemed like a reasonable request. Unfortunately, he refused. What frustrated me most was the lack of effort to find a solution or accommodate a customer who had taken the time to come into the store. The situation could have been handled much differently and would have reflected far better customer service. As I was leaving, I informed the owner's son that I would be leaving a review. His response was to encourage me to do so and even suggest that I take my business elsewhere. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this business. Customer service and communication are important, and unfortunately, both fell short during my visit.

I brought one of my Jimmy Choo lace up heels in for him to fix one of the laces where the leather was coming off, he gave it a week for pick up. when I came to pick it up He wrapped a big thick leather cord around it. It was so big and bulky like the thickness of a pencil. I asked him to please remove that and if he could do it more thin, matching the rest of the cord he freaked out didn't wanna do it said it's $50 or he'll cut it off and I can take my business elsewhere. I asked him to please just fix it and I would pay the $50 if it looked like $50 worth of craftsmanship. He kept it there for another week. I went to go pick it up and he handed me my shoe with the cord, cut off and all the glue stuck to the leather. Do not take your shoes to hand if you want quality work. He is an asshole.
