Customers praise Perry’s skill and professionalism, noting his neat and experienced craftsmanship. He creates bespoke shoes that are cherished as special possessions, with clients valuing the personal attention he provides throughout the process.

He designs lasts with clients’ names on them and crafts unique, one-of-a-kind shoes around those lasts, offering a truly custom experience. The process can be a bit challenging, involving scheduling difficulties and some frustration, especially with travel and coordination, but most agree that the final product is worth the effort. Customers advise clear communication upfront about pricing, scope, timelines, and expectations, and recommend patience during the long crafting process. Despite the costs and occasional frustrations, clients find the shoes to be stunning and durable, with one customer describing them as a “gorgeous lifetime pair” that remains a cherished possession over time. Beyond shoes, Perry’s expertise extends to repairs, such as fixing a favorite bag with barely noticeable stitching that looks good as new and ensures durability. Overall, Perry Ercolino offers a rare combination of craftsmanship, personal attention, and quality that stands out in the northeast corridor, making his business a trusted choice for bespoke footwear and leather repairs.
Perry does good work. Through the years, I have taken my luxury quality designer shoes to him for various reasons……vibram resoles, subtle protective toe taps, and pointed toe box refinishing. Highly recommend.
