The quality of repair is better than I have experienced at any other shop in town.

Incredible leather knowledge and workmanship. Many of my girlfriends will only take their designer bags here for cleaning and repair. It's our go-to for resoling my fiancée's dress shoes as well. Highly recommend this place!

I decided to have a sit and see what the gentleman could do for my tired and worn black leather shoes I had on. It was a good decision. He brought new life back into my tired old shoes. They look great after his very thorough shine. Working hard with his jams going on in background, it was quick and easy. The prices are pretty good as well, check out the pics for their full price list. If you have a few extra minutes in Terminal 2 of RDU during a trip, go by there and see what Superior Shine can do for your shoes. I was satisfied with my experience.

I found Kim's #1 through an online search and was impressed with their pricing compared to some of the other larger companies out there. My order, blouse, trousers, and patrol cap with name tapes and rank sew on services, was received in Michigan 9 days after ordering. Will be ordering again and recommend Kim's #1 to others.

I came to Raleigh from Oklahoma for a conference and inadvertently left my dress shoes at home,…read moremaking boots my only option to wear with a suit. "Rough-looking" is a massive understatement for the condition of my boots, so I went to Ealdwine for some shoe polish, and saw that the product had changed quite a bit over the past few years. I had a few questions about leather conditioner, how much polish to use, etc. (stuff like that), and Mr. Gray took the time to show me everything, on my boots at that. The difference is tremendous, and I'm not JUST talking about how my boots look now. For a business owner to take time out of his day, literally get his hands dirty, and go to such lengths for a customer who might come to Raleigh every five years or so... It speaks volumes about Mr. Gray as a person and business owner. I'm now more informed, equipped with some really good polish, and won't feel so embarrassed about wearing beat-up boots with a suit. Another cool thing, assuming most will be looking/shopping for more than shoe polish, the store's beautifully designed, and chockablock with some of the finest in men's clothing and beautiful footwear. Mr. Gray personally helped with the design in many of the latter (Alden's handmade in Massachusetts), so I definitely feel like I was in good hands, and had definitely come to the right place. Great owner. Top notch products. Perfect service. Great experience.

I was in town for a wedding and realized that I had forgotten to get my shoes shined. They were in…read morereally rough shape! I called one shoe repair place but they didn't inspire confidence in their ability to complete the work today or do the job, at all. Next, I called Love-Way and the gentleman who answered the phone responded with enthusiasm and absolute confidence that he could both complete the refresh and get it done as soon as I could bring the shoes to him. I immediately headed over and was greeted by the same enthusiast charm that I experienced on the phone. The shop is small and very cluttered with shoes, materials, machines everywhere! This is truly a workshop! None of that fancy retail decoration. This is where work gets done! He took my shoes and asked when I wanted to pick them up. Since the wedding was in a few hours, I said I could wait, if he could do them now. He replied "I'll get on 'em, like ugly on an ape!" And his partner started working on them immediately. As I waited, other customers kept coming, bringing him more and more shoes to repair, from single pairs to laundry baskets full! Obviously, they are very popular and do good work. Sure enough, he made my shoes look better than new in a very short time and I went on my way, a very satisfied customer! See the pictures for before and after, as words don't suffice.

If "good for nothing" was a business, it would be Gary's Shoe Repair!!…read moreMy visits to Gary's Shoe Repair have been a complete waste of time, and shows there complete lack of capabilities. On two separate occasions, I brought in shoes for repairs that I'm confident most cobblers could easily handle. However, each time, the response from the lady at the front was a shrug and an unhelpful "there's nothing we can do, sorry!" This business is either staffed by lazy people or simply lacks the fundamental knowledge and skills to provide even basic shoe repair services. This place also operates as a combination shoe repair and disc golf shop. This gives the impression that the shoe repair aspect is not taken seriously whatsoever. It seems more like a casual venture to "make money any way they can" rather than a dedicated, professional cobbler service. If you're looking for competent shoe repair, go somewhere elsewhere!

More than that, even though they took my number down, I've had to be the one to call every few days to check. Everytime I called it was like starting over. Terrible custom service. *Update* So I find out that the people working the desk are just fill ins because the manager and the owner who usually runs the business are out of town. I finally speak with the owner about the issue. He then asked for ANOTHER week to find my shoes (on a Fri). Gracefully, i oblige and they leave a message that Sun saying they have my shoes. I come in a WEEK later to pick up the shoes, and they hadn't been touched . He asks for fifteen minutes to shine them wasting more of my time. Bruh. Well, I ask "I dont need to pay for these right?" He replied "whatever you want to do" as if its still an option. As I leave with my shoes, he gives me a snarky goodbye as well. After months of patience with their mistake. Terrible business practice if I've ever seen it. Never again.

The first time I used KJ Shoe repair was for my favorite pair of broken-in, leather boots. One of…read morethe heels lost its sole. He replaced both boots so they match. I was quite surprised with how reasonable his price was and the work is quality! So the next shoe we bought in for repair was an expensive athletic trainer. These were new shoes that were a gift from my son. One of the Shoes' sole was separating so rather than sending them back for replacement, we just took it into KJ shoe repair. It cost us eight dollars to get it fixed well worth it and we got the shoe back in 48 hours. And he let us know that if the shoe comes apart again that he would fix it again at no cost. Phenomenal customer service! So far so good the shoe is holding! I have a leather purse with a broken zipper. I will definitely bring it in to see if he can fix it. I certainly hope so, because I trust his workmanship. I highly recommend KJ shoe repair! This is a hard trade to find. I think we're so fortunate to have him in Wake Forest.
