"I work down town. Last year I spent the most money I ever had on a pair of Florsheim shoes and the sole of the shoes was wearing away. I have had shoe shines done at Andy's in the past so I decided to see if they could fix up my investment. \n\nThe actual shop is tiny. But what it lacks in size it makes up for in personality. The walls are all covered with sports memorabilia and pictures of Andy winning jackpots at the local casinos. There are several magazines to read of all kinds while you sit and get your shoes shined in any one of the chairs lifted up along the one wall. \n\nI dropped off my shoes on a Tuesday to Andy's wife. It would cost $65 to re-sole the shoes and she asked for a $25 deposit. They would be ready on Friday. \n\nI picked up the shoes in the morning and they had brand new Vibram soles and had been shined up. The job was very professional. I paid the remainder of my fee, switched out the shoes right there and walked out. \n\nGuys don't typically get facials or pedicures. But our version of a spa day is a barber shop shave and old shoes on your feet made new again with a simple shine and some new soles. Something about having some shiny new kicks really adds to the general attitude. I am extremely pleased with Andy's work and will be returning there again in a couple weeks when my shoes are ready for a shine up.\n\nOne tip: it's cash only. There is an ATM in the convenience store next door but they charge a $2.50 fee which is a little much for a less than $10 shine, so come with the dollar bills in your wallet. \n\nWww.andysshoeshine.com"^^ . .
