They're now blue! $50 to ruin my shoes. I hate baby blue!

I recently bought a pair of Brooks running shoes that had a few stains on them, so I decided to try and get them cleaned. My shoes are white/off-white. When I went to pick them up, the stains were gone, however, they are now blue! Baby blue, to be precise. Blue! I'm blue! Also, it was US$50 to get them cleaned and you have to pay upfront. No refunds. Sad!

Classic Dooney and Burke with stains still there.

BEWARE!!! I just left there and my purse looks the exact same except a coat of conditioner on there in which I could have done myself. Literally did not clean it as they said they would. Just a top coat over the stain. I feel so ripped off. $75 for that? Check out photos.

He secured the gold balls on these.

Sal is so communicative and gives you quality craftsman ship. I've taken designer shoes and airmax 1s there.

Herber is a gem! He fixed a strap on my purse and made it look like new. Originally, I took said purse to the LV store for a repair and they quoted me $800 to repair the strap and said I'd need to replace all of the original leather. Yeah, um, no! Thanks be to Yelp for directing me to Herber at Escobar. Not only did he provide excellent service, but he made my purse usable again...and at a reasonable price. Service was prompt, friendly, and completely professional. Will be taking my shoes and purses here for repair in the future.

Overconditioned leather, the white patches is conditioner still remaining on the jacket.
Robert M.

They overconditioned a $1200+ leather jacket and left it sitting in a ball. I came in to pick up my jacket and the man behind the counter pulls it out from under the counter in a literal ball. No hanger--nothing. He immediately tried to charge me $50 and I pointed out to him that it was still covered in leather conditioner. He had to take it to the back 3 times--each time he brought it back to me I pointed out more leftover leather conditioner. Moreover, my receipt said $50 yet my credit card bill says $51.95... won't be bringing anything here again. One of my favorite jackets--somehow looks worse after bringing it here.

I was so lucky to discover Escobar shoe repair!!! I'm obsessed with expensive high heels, but sadly I got trapped in the cracks on a side walk or rain water drain occasionally. The owner of the place is just a gem! Always has my shoes fixed so you even cannot see it was damaged before. He rescued 15 or more pairs already! Really the best service ever, blessed to have him here in LA!

Before - hand sanitizer stain under logo.
Sacha M.

I took my Prada bag in to see if they can get rid of a stupid hand sanitizer stain that sits promptly under the Prada logo..UGH! So mad at myself. But Escobar fixed it & my bag looks brand new!! Thank you!! I'm so happy. Not cheap to have it fixed but way cheaper than buying a new bag, so it's totally worth it. They fixed a handle on my Gucci bag too. I highly recommend!! Also, don't put hand sanitizer in your luxury bags!

They did an awesome job repairing the exterior leather of my Louis Vuitton. Best leather repair shop in L.A!

See all

I have a military backpack that needs to be repairs(strong buckles, strong sewing ) but is that possible? Is so from how much? Thanks

Just call the store, he'll give you an estimate.

I have a Louie Vuitton bag with a broken strap, can you fix it, it also needs to be cleaned?

Yes

I was running late when I dropped off my most recent items, and Herber was so kind to stay a little later to assist me.

My husband has been going to Arturo's for probably 30 years. They are the premier spot in most of…read moreLA in my opinion for any shoe issues or cleaning that one might have. They moved and they are now in a new location. Still the same great service. We highly recommend them. I completely ruined my blue suede Gucci Loafers and they came back as good as new. Whether you have your high-end items or just everyday shoes, these guys will meet and exceed your expectations.

In between this review and the previous one, I brought in some boots which had a heel issue. Funny,…read morethe guy working had said they were pretty much on their last wear, but I said I'd like another round before tossing them, and they came through. Since I haven't had to come here in years, they're now in a different part of town on Beverly. Parking is on Beverly or Flores (metered or some residential on Flores; read the signs). Once again, same issue with the heel but another pair of stilettos. Was quoted $18 and approximately two weeks will be notified by a text when ready. Cramped entry since it's a small space, but I was in and out fairly quickly. When I returned, there was a girl in front of me who had a ton of shoes with her, and the guy barely acknowledged me to let me know someone would be with me shortly (I admit I'm not a looker) but thankfully, another nice guy came over and helped me with my easy pick up. Was offered a bag but I had the dust bag for the shoes with me. What pleases me about this place is all the shoes I've had fixed here are ones I'm still actually wearing; even if I thought they'd be in disarray shortly after repair. I've had no issues, and this is years after the fact... Cash or check only!!
