This shoe repair shop has no credit for their service. I am very disappointed with their unreliable working manners.

It's an old store, but Mr. Poitras is a lovely man, and a real cobbler. I brought a pair of boots, and was impressed by his wonderful job that I brought another pair, and I'll be definitely come back in the future.

He repaired my boots by gluing cheap foam over the holes in the soles. Once the warm weather came, I started wearing them again and the cheap repair scraped right off, exposing the hole in the sole again. A repair I expected to last for years only lasted a few weeks. The pretend-repair was not worth the two trips to the store, let alone the price he charged.

Poitras Shoe is a local gem. A few years ago I brought in my favorite boots with holes in both soles. I wore them until my feet got wet every time it rained. I hadn't been able to find a similar pair, so brought them to Mr. Poitras. He fixed and polished them up for me at a fraction of the cost of.a new pair, and I still wear them several years later. I highly recommend this shop when you need a shoe expert!

I wouldn't bring my boots anywhere else. Every time I've had my boots re-healed here, you can't even tell they're not original. The interior is old school, but in a quant and comfortable way. Arthur is also extremely friendly and a pleasure to talk with. I also wasn't disappointed with the cost for the services provided. The turn around time was also fast, about a week.

Don't ever bring your boots to this business. I dropped off my boot for a zipper repair in February. I was told 2 months because of backlog. She said up front the zipper would not be the same style. I said that isn't a problem. I just want it replaced so I can wear the boot. I called her in May thinking that would be PLENTY of time for the repair. She said she left me a voicemail asking for permission to use a different zipper. WE HAD ALREADY discussed the zipper when I left the boot!! So it was NOT fixed in May. I called again in AUGUST and it was still not fixed. It is now September and I still don't have my boot!!! She doesn't call you, you have to call and follow up with her. I now have to pick up my UNFIXED, but taken apart, boot and bring it somewhere else. Completely furious! This is just awful business practice.

It was like stepping into an old world shoe cobbler's shop from the 1950's! Which I totally enjoyed talking to Joe & Caroline! Several measurements & asking me to walk, They'll be ready next week...better construction, with better materials, these orthotic inserts will cost me a fraction of the price & time to receive!! Try the medical world, and I don't need to tell you, several doctor visits & several weeks later with a substandard(comparatively) insert that lasted a year and a half, at twice the price! It's a no-brainer! Their business has been around 105 years!

Although an older gentleman, Mr. Poitras is nothing short of a wizard in fashioning orthotics. Because of his skilled work, I am a 70 year old woman who is able to continue walking several miles along woodland trails almost every day. I have incredibly flat, arthritic feet, and, because of an unfortunate foot surgery, I am now missing some bone in one foot. A foot surgeon recommended that I try Mr. Poitras' orthotics prior to having another surgical procedure, and his hand crafted orthotics have made a very positive difference in my comfort and ability to enjoy life. He is very polite and extremely courteous in an old world kind of way, and my husband and I both enjoy talking with him. His helper is a very entertaining - a really unique woman - and she adds a bit of fun to this old fashioned cobbler's shop. I highly recommend J. Arthur Poitras Footwear!

I do not think there is any better, they know their craft, prices are within reason and you could not ask for better SERVICE. KEEP GOING FOLKS! ARTHUR HAS ALSO A TERRIFIC ASSISTANT ALWAYS SMILING!
