| - My favorite work shoes, of which I have multiple pairs and do not come cheaply, have the annoying issue of needing the small rubber pad at the base of the heel replaced fairly frequently. Because of this issue, I have become familiar with shoe repair shops. This shop is closest to my new condo, and had good reviews, so I decided to try it out.
Now, I'm torn. The workmanship, customer service, and friendliness at this shop are top-notch (shoes cleaned and polished, scuffs buffed out, a phone call when the shoes are ready - a day early). BUT - I just cannot wrap my head around the price. $15/pair for a replacement piece of rubber the size of a chickpea. This is about double what I've paid at several other shops. I get we're in Arcadia, but sheesh.
