| - This place is run by a little oriental man who speaks just enough English to get by in this wonderful shoe repair shop.
For $10 a pair he will take your shoes, replace the heel and do whatever else it takes to turn your shoes back to brand new! (Stitch holes, fix scuffs, glue, polish, clean, deodorize, etc). I've never gotten a pair back that didn't look like brand new after he was finished with them!
Rather than tell you how long your shoes will take to fix, he asks you when you are coming back. You can say anything from a couple of hours to a few days. No matter what though, he has them ready for you. (I generally come back the next day).
Once he even fixed a pair of broken thong sandals in an hour when the strap that goes between your toes fell out. An emergency fix before heading to the beach.
He giggles a lot, which is just charming, and on occasion you can get him to laugh out loud.
Economical, quick and shoes that come back looking brand new. I highly recommend this place.
