Shoe repair

by C. Devlin » Sat Sep 15, 2007 4:11 pm

I've not been able to find a decent shoe repair shop since we moved here. I keep shoes forever if I can, having them resoled and so forth. I did take a pair of shoes in to a place near Lotsa Pasta for some work last year and wasn't particularly happy with the results.

Any recommendations?

Check out this thread on the old forum. I ended up going to the gent on the west side of Fifth just north of Chestnut (about two doors north of Saffron's Buffet), and he turned out to be a real craftsman, and not terribly expensive. Going in there was like stepping back into the 1940s or something.

Cinderella Shoe Repair: I've used them for twenty plus years. When I first used them but they were in Mall St. Matthew, but rent got to high so they moved on down Shelbyville Road toward the Christian Scientist Church, but they rent got to high so they moved to Plainview Shopping Center - 9977 Linn Station Rd. They once put back together a pair of my sons sandals that were so bad I couldn't tell what were the soles and what were the straps.
