Bought a replacement snap back but can't sew... so I took it to a tailor to see if they could fix, but I was referred to a shoe repair shop whose machines could pierce through the plastic to stitch back in place. Was ready to give up but went to JK Shoe Repair since I was around the corner... and lo and behold, he said he should be able to fix. Quoted me $10 and told me to come back tomorrow. Picked up earlier today and it looks good as new. Paid the quoted $10 and walked out the door (literally a store front) and was about to get in my car when the owner ran out to give me $3 back... he gave me a discount! I was actually willing to spend the $10 so that was a bonus! Will definitely repeat business when I have shoes to repair.

I have this shoes for over 10 years just because of this gentleman. I am planning to keep it for next 5-10 years with his help.

Thank you and that's why I keep coming back to you even if I moved away from the area.

I paid in full - no receipt given and he didn't ask for my name or phone number. LOL. I said, will you remember me? He said yes.

Workmanship 0 : I wouldn't get my Louboutins soles repaired…read morehere. I specifically asked to do red sole. He said yes and when I came to pick them up. My $800 pumps looks like $20 fake piece of shit with the ugliest looking black rubber role on the red sole. I wish he asked me b4 ruining my favorite shoes or not did anything. He said he was going to but couldn't find my number and instead went ahead and placed a black rubber sole despite my request not to. It is visible from the back. Price 0: He charges a lot for cheap jobs. He charged me $220 for a few pairs of shoe repairs and none of them were cleaned. He charged $35 to make designer shoes look like fake. Doesn't even look fixable. Essentially lost a few thousand dollars. Service 0 Mr Lin lacks intelligence why people would get their shoes fixed for $35 a pair. Can't comprehend that he should call customers before putting on a black sole when I specifically told him not to put on a black sole on top of the red soles. I wanted to give better rating because Mr. Lin seems like a nice person but his workmanship is poor. Who repairs cheap shoes these days? It is cheaper to buy another pair of cheap shoes. Most people get their shoes repaired if it is worth fixing. He made my designer shoes worth-less. If you have a cheap shoes that has sentimental values, might be ok to go get them repaired by him. If you have anything that's more than $200, don't come here. One of the worst shoe repairs. Go elsewhere.

I was choosing between 2 places and figured try this out and if it is salvaged, I could wear these hopefully for more seasons to come. He was a bit backed up so they were ready after a week since I said I wasn't in a rush given then 75 degree days in Nov!!! Anyways I'll update w how they look or last after the season but first impressions i am thrilled w the craftsmanship. I really wanna support a local shop and it was a positive experience conversing w him and his wife. Ultimately the work, process, price, results and longevity have to make sense such that I would rather spend on fixing my shoes than buying new ones! I hope to bring more to bring life back to my existing collection.

The Ferragamos had a damaged heel and some cosmetic scuffs in the black leather, while the McQueens looked fine on the surface but had soles so worn down that water seeped in whenever it rained. Romy managed to fix both pairs so they look and function like new. I'm thrilled to have my two favorite boots back. It was absolutely worth the money: he repaired both of my shoes, which retail for several hundred dollars, at just a fraction of what it would have cost me to replace them new. And all within 24 hours! I came on a Thursday afternoon and he had them ready for me Friday morning :) I will be back!

He initially quoted me Friday and then changed it to Saturday due to the holiday. I showed up and panicked when I didn't see my shoes. I handed him the ticket and then he started looking and apologized and said he wasn't able to get to it but asked if I could come back in two hours. I said no, because when I dropped them off Wednesday, I specifically told him I was leaving Sunday. Additionally, I'm going to the game today that starts at 4 (he closes at 6) and I'm leaving tomorrow. If you can't fulfill the job, don't agree to do it. If I had agreed to let him do it and come back in a couple hours, I know it would have been a rush job and everything he would have done would have come undone.
