My shoes were old but I really liked the way they fit. The bottom of my shoes were wore out, the shoe guy did a great job, hopefully they will last many more years, but I know who to run to!

I thought this dude was GONE! I'm soooo happy he's still here, after the 17 years since I visited him. He's a cobbler. Truly. I can't wait to go back and take my Louboutin and Vans, alike, to him. Can't wait to see you, my friend. It's no longer platforms I need you to reinforce.

I needed at least 1/8 of an inch stretched on my new Nike's. They couldn't do that, and were very rude about it; but, still took my money.

Best bet when looking for custom work is to take them into the store. Then they will be able to see what you want done and offer an appropriate estimate or refer you if it's something they don't do. They can do literally anything related to shoes, shoe repair, soles, etc.
