To my surprise he was able to fix the chewed heals and even touch up some of the scuff marks. They turned out great! They went from pretty much new to chewed up to looking good!

Like most shoe repair, a job can take 2-3 weeks to complete but I believe that there is no rush when you're doing quality work.

My lace-up midcalf boots were elderly, to say the least. The sole on one was separating, and when…read morethe owner examined it he pulled it completely off. Yikes, they are goners for sure. But he took them and gave me a ticket. That was October, 2025. This is mid-January, 2026, and I've been back twice and each time he can't find them in his shop but said he must have taken them home to work on. I would understand if they were not fixable. I guess they are gone, one way or another. Too bad, I can't seem to find similar ones anywhere. I loved those boots...

Lee's Shoe Repair is reasonably priced and does excellent work. I brought in a pair of leather…read moreboots that I had accidentally left outside. They got wet, dried out, and warped so badly that I couldn't even wear the right one because the toe had completely caved in. Mr. Lee told me it would take a week. When I came back, the boots looked incredible. The toe was fully restored and looked almost no different than it had before the damage. In fact, this is the best these boots have looked in years. They are well loved and well worn. I use them for work, yard work, hiking, vacations, and everyday wear, so they have truly been lived in. Seeing them brought back to life like that was impressive. I even received compliments on them after getting them back. He did such a great job that I almost wish I had more shoes that needed repair. If you are looking for quality craftsmanship at a fair price, this is the place to go.

When I got them back he completely painted the boot a new color. He even had the audacity to paint over the stitching " Ariat stitching" and it just looked like shit. I don't recommend going to him. He promised services he didn't give and when I got them back he even said he didn't have time to give them the "finish" and still charged me full price. He also doesn't have a shop like the maps show he works from home.

It's too bad because I have taken my shoes and boots to northside a few times for service. I don't know the guy's name but i think he's in his 30's, wears glasses and is a bit on the " husky" side.
