JR did an amazing job restoring my Steve Madden wedges that were completely falling apart on the bottom and in the soles. One week turn around time. Thanks so much!

Highly recommend this shop! JR does excellent work at a reasonable price and is great to deal with. We've brought him several pairs of boots as well as some bags for zipper repair and the results are always fantastic. Pictured are some vintage Dirk Bikkembergs boots I had JR fit with a new rubber half sole.
