Eugene is a very fine craftsman and his work is excellent. I brought in my hiking boots to be resoled after a decade of use and they were returned in less than a week looking better than new and with far superior soles than I had been using. I highly recommend this cobbler. read more

Eugene's Shoe Repair - freshly polished and resoled boots - Shoe Repair Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

Eugene's comes highly recommended from Baltimore natives. It sits right on the corner off of Cold Spring, so be careful not to drive right past it. I needed these shoes for a wedding I was attending. I dropped the shoes off on Monday and they were promised to me by Friday. The repair was for my high heel shoes that needed a replacement heel cap as they were old and needed to be refreshed. The repair was super reasonable and affordable. It was 20 bucks. The gentleman that took my shoes for repair didn't seem all too friendly but he definitely made me feel like my shoes would be repaired correctly. I picked up my shoes on Friday and They were perfect! I was wedding ready! read more

Show repair is so old school. So if you want it, you gotta look. This tiny place is something you may not see unless looking. Very friendly and professional small team. The work done to replace heels on two dress shoes was excellent. The service I requested was done quickly and I actually was the problem with a delayed pick up ha. Value is the eternal question. To fix or buy new? That is the question!!! For me two men's dress shoes replacement heels and cleaning was about $80 ($40 a piece). The shoes were new $80-90...so this was on the line for me, but I guess I was sustainable! Right??? Great place. Give it a try. read more

I took 2 leather bags to Eugene's for repair. One the shoulder strap was torn and the other the zipper needed repair. The leather used on the shoulder strap repair looks terrible and the zipper that was used to replace the broken one didn't line up with teeth wise. He took the bag back to try to repair it and it still was messed up. I asked if he could lower the price because the work was POOR to say the least and he took $10 off. The bag with the zipper can not be used and the big black patch on the blue bag is an eye sore. read more

I truly love this place. In today's world, it's becoming harder and harder to find an establishment that still focuses on the craft of repairing shoes, and Eugene's does it exceptionally well. From the moment I walked in, the staff were pleasant, professional, and welcoming. They took the time to listen carefully to my requests, were patient in understanding the refinements I wanted, and offered helpful suggestions without ever being pushy. I will absolutely be returning in the future and highly recommend Eugene's Shoe Repair to anyone who values excellent craftsmanship, friendly service, and a business that truly cares about its customers. read more

Quality work, affordable but pay in cash to avoid surcharge. we will go back any time we need work done, polishing, new zipper etc

I found this place on Yelp. I brought in a pair of boots I bought and were a little snug to be stretched. I came into the shop to ask about the boots and he advised me he can stretch the boots and advised the price, which was very reasonable. There was a section where you can purchase shoes left behind. I saw one great pair of platform suede shoes, but they were not my size...bummer. Before I left, the clerk advised he will call/text me when my shoes are ready and gave me my ticket. He offers several items for shoes, like shoe horns, shoe stretchers, laces and more. Also he cuts keys and sells key accessories and more. I hope to return to see how he does on a pair of shoes that got damaged at a graduation. read more

I bought a pair of tan suede boots but found them to be too dull for my liking. On a whim, I decided to come here to see what could be done to salvage this purchase. Eugene wasn't sure if he could make them my desired color, red, since he never had attempted it. I was willing to experiment and he proceeded to knock it out of the park. In a little over a week, I returned to pick up a pair of boots that pleased me to no end. I was so impressed, in fact, that I brought in another pair of shoes to be dyed with equally stunning results. I will definitely return for any and all of my shoe maintenance needs going forward. read more

Responsive! Reliable! I found this shoe shop on Yelp, called to see if I could bring my heels in to get and replaced within one day. Without hesitation, the owner responded 'Yes'. I dropped my shoes off Friday around 10am and picked them up Saturday around noon. Quick, easy, zero issues, inexpensive. Highly Recommended read more

The man's hands are as strong as iron but have the touch of a craftsman who repairs violins in Vienna, works on my shoes, and goes by the name Eugene. Whenever I need shoes repaired or simply want a few pairs buffed up, I go to Eugene. Eugene practices a very high level of craftsmanship. He offers a no-nonsense inspection, recommendations for what he will do, and a price when you walk in. I refuse to go anywhere else. Respectfully, William J Earley read more

Eugene is a real cobbler from the Ukraine. Service is quick, high-quality, and reasonable priced. I had a pair of Tecovas boots redone - half leather sole w vibran saver, toe, and heal taps and heel, all for less than $140 and completed in less than a week. Half of the price proposed by two other shops. read more

A Master! There is no one I trust as much with my most precious shoes. Truly a craftsman! read more

Had a pair of 15-year-old lattice loafers that needed some glued insoles, polish and new soles and heels that Eugene of his eponymous repair shop made well again. He also repaired a leather watch band of a watch belonging to my late dad. I could've just gotten a new band, but it was of sentimental value, and his workmanlike repair job was much appreciated. Eugene is a gem in our area, his demeanor humble, his pricing fair for the high quality of his work. read more

This place is legit. Fast repair, quality work, excellent service, fair prices. Recommend

Fantastic job on my precious cowboy boots! I brought them in on Thursday and got them back Saturday morning with a new half sole, heel, and full stitching all around. They look brand new. I'm extremely happy and will definitely bring everything back here in the future. Thanks Eugene! read more

Reliable, fast, high-quality service and craftsmanship. Resoled my beloved Hogan boots and they are more beautiful than ever. Glad Eugene's is close to home! read more

When I moved from NYC/Brooklyn to Baltimore, I was worried that I would not be able to find a place to have my shoes repaired that would be comparable to the service and quality of where I had my shoes repaired in New York. After searching for options on Yelp, I found Eugene's and I could not be happier with the experience. On Saturday, I dropped off my leather Chelsea Boots to have the sole repaired and the leather cleaned/waterproofed for the fall and winter seasons, and they were ready to be picked up in under 48 hours. I'm very happy with the quality of the work and how quick the turnaround was. I can't recommend Eugene's enough! read more

Fantastic service, fast turnaround, reasonable price. Put a heel wedge on my beloved Timberlands. My boots came back looking better than when I got them! Absolutely will go back. Big thanks to Eugene! read more

Excellent, quick service. Did the repair I needed on the spot, in a few minutes. Reasonably priced and friendly.

My wife and I have both been using Eugene's services for many years on all sorts of different types of shoes. He provides a high level of skill and derive, with an efficient turnaround time, and at reasonable prices. He has greatly extended the life of many of my dress shoes. But he will also tell you when a repair job is no longer worth the effort. read more

I was quite pleased with the work done on my worn out Birkenstocks. The service was done timely and the price was competitive. I would trust Eugene's with any pair of shoes. Hi read more

Eugene offers high quality, prompt and professional service! I come from Belcamp, MD all the way down to Roland Park, MD, just to patronize his business. He's added sole protectors to my exotic cowboy boots, Ostrich and Stingray! read more

Eugene's Shoe Repair - Sole protectors added to my Stingray boots. - Shoe Repair Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I brought a pair of chukka boots to get resoled that I had resoled here about 1 year ago. The first time around the midsole tore pretty quickly and I walked around in wet feet, but I did it because I love these shoes. I also walk a lot so I thought maybe I just wear shoes out pretty quickly, so I decided to come back again. When I picked them up from the store this time, they looked great. Nice brown shine on them. The midsole had a few gaps, but they seemed pretty solid. The owner commented that whoever had repaired them previously hadn't replaced the midsole for me, so he did that this time around. I chuckled to myself as he was the one who hadnt replaced the midsole before. When I got home and tried them on, I realized that they were reduced in size to the point I couldn't comfortably fit in them anymore. Now I normally buy shoes about half inch larger than I need because I like the room, and now I had to scrunch my toes to fit in the shoes. It seems logical to me that shoes may shrink in the repair process, but if there were issues with the repair to the point that more than half an inch was lost I wouldve expected this to be brought up during pick up/payment. Poor waste of $85.00 if you ask me. I'll never waste my time or money here again. read more

Eugene's placed full leather soles on a pair of suede desert boots which had one hole on each shoe. The price was in line with other shops. Shoe repairs were outstanding, replacement soles (and half rubber heel) were of quality and were even ready two days early (received text notification). I recommend Eugene's without any hesitation. read more

I had my Frye boots resoled and I am overwhelmed by the exceptional quality! I highly recommend Eugene's Shoe Repair.

Eugene did a stellar job restoring my favorite pair of mules. The leather was quite wrinkled and peeling up on the backs and he reshaped, resoled, and polished them with the utmost care. read more

Efficient, high quality work at reasonable prices. Will breath new life in to your old shoes!

I have been in the footwear business for over 50 years So when I tell you you can't find a better shoe man ANYWHERE trust me BBRAVE read more

He can repair anything. I think he gives fair Prices and a short wait time. I've had him repair the strap on a backpack, the strap on a purse, the soles of boots, and re-attach broken sandals. He works wonders and would highly recommend. As a heads up only cash is accepted read more

I take all of my shoes here. Don't settle on mediocre. My shoes and purses have always been ready earlier than expected and much better than anywhere else I've gone. read more

Having been raised on what constitutes the best shoe repair by a fashion designer mother in NYC, I will tell you that Eugene's Shoe Repair is comparable to the best in The City. At a VERY reasonable price, Eugene (is that his actual name?) restored my treasured pair of patent leather Stuart Weitzman stiletto boots. This review comes a bit late, as this work was done last year, yet I'm still not over his craftsmanship. He also superbly reinforced the shoulder strap of a leather handbag that I've had for over 15 years. I highly recommend Eugene's!! read more

I recently brought a pair of very worn out boots to Eugene's to have the sole and welt replaced, he was upfront about work that needed to be done, cost and time frame. He even brought out the welt and sole he would be using to make sure I was ok with it since it wouldn't look like the original( all black boot that had a black sole from a previous repair) My boots were done in two days--and I was notified via text when they were ready to be picked up--and they look perfect ! I've taken my shoes to other local shops and they've taken WEEKS for poor repairs, very happy I brought my boots to Eugene's and I will be using them from here on out! A heads up because most people rely on cards, they require a deposit and only take cash or check for payments. read more

I have brought my shoes here many times and was satisfied with the work. Unfortunately about a week ago I brought two pairs of shoes in to him. The black pair was supposed to have a heel fixed and be polished. The second pair was a natural color and was only supposed to be polished. He gave me a total that was written on a ticket. When I went to pick up the shoes on last Friday I had prewritten the check amount based on the total he gave me when I dropped them off. He gave me the shoes and I looked at them. The natural colored pair looked as if nothing had been done to them. He said nothing about not working on them so I mentioned that they didn't look polished. He said he didn't have the polish color to fix them. I said ok and handed him the check forgetting to correct the payment amount. Of course he didn't mention the incorrect payment amount. On Monday I realized that I overpaid him but they were already closed. So early Tuesday morning (only about 2 business days passed at this point) I called and explained the situation asking if I could just bring in another pair of shoes since I overpaid and then we could call it even. At first he acted as if he had no idea who I was and said he had 100s of customers. Odd response since I'm sure that 100 customers hadn't just been there and written a check only a few days before. Then he remembered who I was and said he cleaned and glued something on the shoe. When he couldn't provide the service I requested he should not have done anything to the shoes. In addition I could not see where anything was done to the shoes. He claimed that the amount I paid was the correct amount for the shoes although I had submitted to him the ticket showing that that price had been quoted with polishing. Although it is my fault that I overpaid, I find it to be very poor customer service that he would suggest I was lying and not simply make the situation right by giving me my change (money) or polishing a different pair of shoes. Although he does good work, I don't plan to bring my shoes here again. I also have witnessed him talking rudely to another customer in the past so I should have taken that as a sign of his regard for customer service. read more

He does awesome work ! I brought shoes and boots here a long ago to have taps put on to be cleaned up. My shoes n boots are still in great shape . Excellent craftsmanship! read more

I have taken numerous pairs of shoes, boots, and heels to be repaired here over the years, and I would never go anywhere else. I am extremely picky about my shoes, and when I find a good quality pair I love, I wear them into the ground and get them repaired over and over again. The man who works in the store (I am assuming that he is Eugene, but I'm not sure), clearly treats his work like an artform. He uses the best materials for the repairs, and has never used overly thick and distasteful rubber soles and heels on my shoes like I've seen other cobblers do to my friends. He must be from somewhere in Europe because of his accent and the aesthetic sensibility he brings to shoe repair. Cash or check only, deposit due up front. Quick turnaround depending on how busy he is. He's a one-man shop. read more

Should you ever find yourself in your favorite leather booties in a bar that notoriously has a half an inch of fluids(?) across the floor ... rest assured you can still enjoy your time and wear your shoes out in public again.. but not until you let Eugene work his magic on them first! read more

This man is amazing. Not only does he do a great job on basic replacements and repairs, but his custom work is fabulous. He replaced a lost piece on an expensive Kooba purse for me about a year ago and it looked like the original. Today, I picked up my designer watch on which he had replaced the broken unusual slim leather band with one he made and - again - restored the piece to its original design. Craftsmanship like this is a gift I truly appreciate, especially in this time when all around us is mass-produced junk. Thank you, Eugene. read more

I had some severe problems with two pairs of shoes some five year-old (Clarks) flats which I use for musical purposes (long story) and a 20 year-old Birkenstock sandals from which the sole had fallen off, so I headed over to another shoe repair shop, but it was closed, so I decided to drive up to Roland Park and try Eugene's; and I'm glad I did. Not only did they fix the problems with both pairs, but when I got them back, they were as good or better than new. They really know their stuff. I hope I won't be back there too soon, but I'll be back. read more

We used to live in Brooklyn, NY and would go to Minas Shoe Repair in the Wall St. area of Manhattan. Eugene's is just as good, period.
