Cobbling (aka Shoe Repair)
Our shoe repair and cobbling services include full soles, half soles, topys, welts, stretching, and a variety of sewing. We only use trusted leather and rubber brands such as Vibram, Topy, and JR leather to ensure long-term quality repairs.
Have a beloved pair needing a tune-up? Want to prolong a pair that you haven’t found a replacement for? Did your pup chew the heels off your loafers? We’re happily here to help save your soles! If you’re not sure if we can do the job, please send us an email (with photos preferably!) or swing by in person for a free assessment.

Safety:
We’re committed to operating a safe leatherwork studio, which is why we’ve installed the best preventions against cancers that stem from working with leather cement, leather dust and dye fumes – a common ailment for life-long cobblers. We’ve installed modern ventilation systems and provide our staff with multiple forms of safety equipment. We take safety very seriously here! See our COVID-19 protocol here.
