Randall was amazing, it took a couple of weeks, price was not bad, very affordable. You need to pay up front and he gives you a ticket and to come back and pick it up. I came back and my boots are all fixed up and I am happy with the service. I will definitely come back for other shoe repairs and try the cleaning service for the shoes.

HIGH SCHOOL REUNION SHINE…read more When I went to the Men's Wearhouse to buy an attire for my high school reunion one of the sales associates recommended either a black dress shoe or casual shoe with my attire. I looked at the black casual shoe, which I preferred over the black dress shoe. I also liked the price. However I wasn't sure how often I would wear the black casual shoe. At home I had a pair of black dress shoe and black casual shoe. Instead of buying a pair of casual shoes from the Men's Wearhouse I brought these pairs to A-1 Shoe Repair for shoe shining. I went here about one week about my high school reunion. When I asked about my black Florsheim dress shoe if I can add a heel protector, Randall stated due to the condition of the heel he would need to insert a new heel that costs $15, which I didn't want to pay. I then asked him how much for a shoe shine for both pairs of shoes. He said $40, which is less than a pair of casual shoes I was interested at the Men's Wearhouse. I dropped off my pair of shoes. The day before the reunion I picked my two pairs of shoes. I liked the shine on both shoes. I think overall the shine on the Florsheim stood out more. I decided to wear the black Florsheim dress shoes for the reunion not because of the shine but I felt those shoes were more comfortable to wear than the black Nike casual shoes. Overall I'm glad I came to A-1 Shoe Repair for a shoe shine for my two pairs of shoes.

(aka Union City) I finally had the time to check this place out on my lunch break - given, I was in an instant desire to let go & get my hands off of some fresh kicks (Air Jordan 4 Retro Bred ReImagined - sz 10), that I had bought over a ShockDrop from their Nike SNKRS app hat my homie hooked up for me not too long ago! Don't let that person know, tho! (cuz I will find out! Haha JK) I used to be somewhat 'so much' involved in the shoe game / hypebeast lifestyle growing up.. I remember so much back in high school, with my part-time job in the library shelving books, yet I'd fork over almost my entire paycheck to get some J's... but then, it sorta just stopped once I graduated high school & went to college - up 'til I was gettin' into my early twenties, and had phased out of it & moved on to 'grown man shoes', as my best friend would say back in the day not too many years back. Like a saying I once heard in my teens, you gotta know where to "deal with the real" AND having done a smooth transaction with Kyle Goudie (the proprietor of this humble abode of a buy/sell/consignment shop) was definitely a foreal, foreal REAL one! Honest, Legit, and Transparent. Thank you for being friendly & patient - especially for someone like me not having a peer-to-peer mobile payment app that allows users to easily transfer funds from a linked financial institution account to another recipient - I did have PayPal, tho! Haha. I originally bought the shoes at a higher price & offered the , but I wasn't trippin' out since it was only a few dollars difference - and with my side hustle as a musician - can't complain to be 'too blessed to be stressed'. #mindfulmatters I definitely recommend ya'll check this local business when you find yourselves on this side of the East Bay!! Don't say I didn't warn you! Once in awhile, you'll find yourselves craving for some fresh kicks, just wanting to browse on some vintage apparel & footwear & other knick knacks, and/or even getting yourself donned in what's "in" to be "it", cuz you know you just can't stay away from being & looking "fit"!

I went inside the shop and a Hispanic man with silver tooth said the shoes weren't ready, and asked me to wait for a few minutes. I said, "I was told that the shoes will be ready for today pickup, how come it wasn't ready. Then, he asked me if I still wanted to wait or not." I waited for less than 10 minutes then he gave me the shoes it was ruined, he cuts off the fabric without tucking it inside before putting on a new heel tips. He was so rude to customers and told me not to ever come back to the shop. This man has no work professionalism. Please think twice before you come to this place for services.

I had been hesitant after reading mixed reviews of other places, so I reached out to Maselli first to see if they could meet my expectations. Their responsiveness and honesty immediately gave me confidence, and I decided to bring my boots in. I did have to pay the full amount upfront before seeing the finished product, which made me a bit hesitant at first--but the results truly speak for themselves. What impressed me even more was learning that the restoration was hand painted, not sprayed on, which shows just how much care, skill, and meticulous attention to detail went into the work. You can really tell they take pride in what they do. This place is truly a gem, and I'm so glad I took the chance. I've finally found a shoe repair shop I can trust and will absolutely be coming back.

When working in the city I would sometimes drop them of at places there just for convenience but nothing as good as The Cobblers. Not only a shoe repair place but a store for boots, work boots, hats, coats etc. I even stock up on Shoe Goo here for my Merrill running shoes with the sole that can't be replaced but was told it would be more expensive if they did it so just get the Shoe Goo. This place has been around since the late 50's and run by the same family.  Shoe repair is an art that won't get taken over by AI. The only thing that will put a place like this out of business is disposable shoes and clothes.  We are not there yet for the nice stuff. So once again my partner needed heels on her boots and since nothing local it's of to Hayward. $20 up front and a few days later boots look as good as new. New heels and all polished up. So for the ladies not sure if ya'll in the clackety heel camp or the more cushie no clack camp, but they have both. My partner is in the clackety camp. You can get hear her coming on a tile floor a mile away. So not just heels but resoles and all types of repairs. There is free parking on the street and in the back. Go there, it'll be great.

They have excellent selection of shoes, western wear, leather, etc. Most importantly - they do repairs and even full rebuilds of shoes, boots, high heels, etc. I have a pair of duty boots for the fire department (Chippewa brand) that I purchased from them 20+yrs ago for the community college fire academy. After 15 or so years of daily wear and abuse, the Cobblers rebuilt them - and it was as if the boot were brand new!! I had a pull tab / loop tear off on my expensive ostrich skin western boots; they repaired it & it looked brand new. They are also INCREDIBLY skilled at re-soling shoes & boots. I have another pair of western boots, that I wear for outdoor activities; hunting, fishing, camping. Not only did they rebuild them to like-new, they installed an "aggressive" sole, so now I have a pair of western slip-on cowboy boots, which have a pair of hiking style off-road soles!! They work absolute magic at this place! Particularly for your leather shoes / boots, don't throw them away... Take them to the cobblers, they'll make them as if they're brand new!!

I…read moredo not have a washer dryer and used to go to the laundry mat, but was tired of lugging everything and taking my time at the laundry mat. My friend told me about this service and when I looked, I was able to book a pick up for the next day. The turn around is just so insanely fast, I love it. They pick up on laundry on Tuesday and it's back by Wednesday, folded in seran wrap and put in bags placed in my front yard. I don't think I'll ever do laundry again. I think the price point is there and worth it. The laundry mat was pricey, and this is comparable especially with the work being done for you. I have placed very large orders bc I refused to do laundry for so long and to me it's worth the price. However, what I do not think is worth it is that blankets are $25 a piece no matter the size. So if you have tiny blankets like from Amazon I recommend getting a friend to do them bc the wash will cost more than the blanket itself. If it's your first time, you'll use garbage bags and they'll bring back your order in a purple bag so you can reuse that bag for future orders!

Once they verified that it happened during the dry cleaning process and was not repairable, they've offered to pay for my dress.

I was about to throw away these shoes I bought for my husband and few years ago he worn them down to the point it just didn't look good because they were so dirty. He loved them so much though, so I figured ok, maybe someone can clean them up. I yelped around and found the Hood Cobbler. I called him before 10AM (he opens at 10) to try to leave a VM and was pleasantly surprised when he picked up. I asked if I could pay extra for drop off and pick up and he agreed. It is worth every single dollar! He's honest about what can and cannot be done. I wish he fixed woman's heels. This man would be on my payroll!! Bottom line, if you need to get your sneakers cleaned or fixed, this is your guy right here to fix it! 5 stars all around. The only hiccup was the time frame being a little longer than the assumed turnaround -however, I did a little research and evidently it takes a long time to get the yellowing out of the soles- so I don't even count this against him at all. 5 stars all around.
