| - I seriously LOVE this place! One of my favorite things about it is that it's called "Tony's Shoe Repair" and when you walk in, you get Tony! It's so rare these days and you can tell that he takes a lot of pride in his work and has been doing it for a long time. He's a master!
When I moved back to AZ from Houston I was in dire need of a shoe repair place. Like every fashionista out there, I have a weakness for shoes. More specifically, super expensive designer heals (Dior, Louboutin, Burberry, Gucci, Jimmy Choo, Manolo...need I say more?).
I got spoiled living in Houston because there was literally a shoe hospital (yes...a shoe hospital) every few blocks and I was able to get my shoes fixed up and looking like new without actually paying $500=$1000 for new pair...on a college student budget that's not really (ok, not AT ALL) plausible.
When I moved back to AZ and the heal completely broke off my fave (7-year-old) nude Dior pumps I had one of those mini heart attacks like when you lose your iphone lol. So I started looking for shoe repair places and came across Tony's who had very high reviews. I also noticed that it was in Scottsdale so I figured he was used to dealing with high-end shoes.
I decided that since I was going there anyway, I'd take a few other pairs that could use some sprucing up. When I got there I was greeted by Tony with his warm, cheerful smile and comforting disposition. He assured me that it would definitely take some work but within a few days he's have them all fixed up (did I mention that the "nude" pumps were so scuffed and dirty at this point that they looked nearly black around the toe and heal??).
A few days later I returned to pick up my 4 pairs of shoes and I was amazed by the results. They literally looked like the day I'd bought them. He's even been nice enough to put a protector under the front of one of my shoes to prevent from further damage and make them last longer. I basically got 4 new shoes for less than a tenth of what it would have cost to actually buy a new pair of the same style.
It's been over a year now and whenever my shoes need a bit of help (even if it's just a cleaning or conditioning) I always take them to Tony's and have always been completely satisfied and smiling when I leave. Tony is amazing at repairing shoes and he's truly one of the kindest people I know. Always smiling and willing to help you out however he can (he even stayed late for me one day when I was stuck in traffic and couldn't get there before closing time).
I highly recommend this place!
