I've been back several times now, to bring new life to old shoes, and I have to say that these…read morechaps are fantastic. En route to town, I dropped in my solid favourite heels to be fixed up, and was greeted by the ever friendly and welcoming guys that man the shop. I'm sure one of them must be Steve, and one day I might venture to ask which one, but on this occasion I wasn't so brave as to make introductions. It costs just over a fiver to get re-heeling done, and I've never been in without being able to collect the shoes about 30 minutes later. Basically, it gives you enough time to pop off for a coffee, take in the world, and pop back again before going about your day. Of course, if you need keys cut, and the various other cobbler odd jobs, they're ready to provide good service for that too. They're always smiling, they're cheap and cheerful, they're fantastic and I've them to thank for not having to buy new shoes. It's always a pleasure. Cash only, but as Hannah says, there's a cash machine right next door!

Steve's is probably the most traditional business in the whole of Headingley - amidst a sea of…read morestudent pubs, bars and modern delis, it stands proud, providing ye olde cobbling and keycutting services for anyone who so desires. The keycutting services are as fast as they are cheap (very) and on the two occasions I've needed a key cut here, I've had no problems with the finished product working in my doors. Can't say I've ever needed to have a shoe cobbled though. I'm a firm believer in the if-a-shoe's-broke-bin-it school of thought, so I can't comment on Steve's shoe skills, but I'd wager they're as professional as his key-cutting skills are.

Set on Brudenell Road, though lacking a decent name, this DIY shop and locksmiths must have helped…read moreout hundreds, if not thousands of students who have lost their keys in a drunken haze. As a DIY shop, it is not nearly as large as, say, the one around the corner, but no matter, they still have a few essentials lurking, you just can't browse due to the teeny interior, you have to ask. The man behind the counter is always chirpy and helps where he can. Any shop keeper with a great sense of humour and a smile always goes down well with me. In fact, last time I was here, the guy cut a key for my mate. When he handed it over the counter after an impressive 20 second wait for it to be cut, we saw that the key he'd cut said 'Pimp' on it, the man couldn't stop laughing, and neither could we. Easily pleased? Perhaps, but I wont forget him, or his shop!
