I decided to bring them to Shoe Wiz Instant Shoe Repair since they were near my DTLA office with hopes they could assist. The two gentlemen took the time to carefully inspect my boots and explain exactly what had gone wrong with the previous repair. They walked me through every step of how they planned to correct the issues, and it was obvious they knew their craft inside and out. When I got my boots back, I was beyond happy. Not only were they saved, but they honestly looked better than they did when they were new out of the box. The quality of the workmanship, attention to detail, and pride they take in their craft really show. Talented, honest, and true to their craft. They've earned a customer for life, and I won't trust my boots or any shoe with anyone else. If you're looking for true craftsmanship and people who genuinely care about doing the job right, I can't recommend Shoe Wiz Instant Shoe Repair enough.

They are real cobblers as they repaired my straps on my Martens baby doll shoes. They're the real deal. So glad that after 15 years, their quality is comparable as they use the same products.

When I asked how much I owed, they told me I didn't owe a dollar because all they had to do was glue it. I was honestly so impressed by both their kindness and honesty. It's rare to find a business that puts customer service ahead of making a quick buck. Thank you so, so much! I'll definitely be back and will happily recommend you to anyone who needs shoe repairs.

Would absolutely recommend Johnny to anyone I cared about.

My shoes always come back looking perfect! They are incredibly knowledgeable, quick, and communicative. They tell you exactly when your shoes will be ready and even text you as soon as they're finished. I also really appreciate how they have different types of insoles for different types of shoes and how much attention they pay to every little detail. Their craftsmanship and customer service are both outstanding. If you need any kind of shoe repair, I truly cannot recommend them enough!

Miracle is an understatement! Ray and his artisans are expert craftsmen who know how to care for,…read moretreat, and repair leather better than anyone I've found. I brought in two vintage Coach pieces: a saddle bag purse that had been my mother's that I wanted to give to my niece and an old Day-Runner organizer. The purse has several small, dark stains inside and out that had been there for years and took away from the bag's overall beauty. I was afraid my niece would be underwhelmed with it as a gift, even though she collects vintage Coach. The Day-Runner was stored in our garage and had serious mildew inside and out. Ray's team returned them to me as good as new - even better than new, because Coach has retired these items. I couldn't believe the stains on the bag were gone with virtually no detectable change to the bag's original saddle color. Amazing work. Beyond that, Ray cares about the quality of every piece they work on - which is why he has my business from now on!

I moonlight professionally as a Medieval English Historian and there is something especially erotic…read morein trades that have stood the test of time like blacksmithing, metal-making, apothecaries, leather-making, etc. Also, on this list that I always find intriguing: cobblers. With the overconsumption of marketed goods nowadays; not everyone considers the repair of shoes/purses/leather goods; and rather just makes an entirely new purchase. If you need such work and are in the east valley vicinity; I introduce you to Deluxe Shoe Repair in Burbank. Burbank is the home to a very famous shoe repair shop who I shall not name here; but seems to be everyone's instant 'go-to' for cobbler type repair. I, too, had patroned that establishment and simply do NOT understand the hype: they aren't welcoming, they are abrasive and their work is not that great while also being overpriced (granted, this is a specialized, by-hand field of work so it isn't cheap). Point is, I wanted to find a different place for shoe and leather repairs which is how I discovered Deluxe Shoe Repair. Deluxe Shoe Repair holds real estate on Hollywood Way a few doors down from the Magnolia intersection (yes, the one with Portos) making it a tough spot for parking but there is a small lot in the back accessible from the next street. Deluxe Shoe Repair is THE place to go for shoe repair, resoling, cleaning, purse repair/cleaning/restoration, show dying... you name it and they do it. The thing that makes Deluxe Shoe Repair stick out is their handling of designer and high-end luxury items. It can be nerve-racking to leave items worth multiple hundreds of dollars in someone else's hands but DSR can make anything look better than new! I initially went to DSR because a pair of espadrilles wedges were becoming unglued and I was curious if there was a way to save them. DSR is a medium sized store with some seating, cases of gorgeous designer shoes that I am dying to have a pair (turns out DSR works with the wardrobe departments for the local studio and many of these were used in tv/film and DSR is selling them severely reduced prices), mirrors and natural lighting. Stroll to the back counter and you will meet the man who is the driving force behind DSR: Sam. Sam is welcoming but professional and his passion for his work is evident: he doesn't just do this for a means of living but actually LOVES it. Turns out my espadrilles couldn't be repaired because they are fabric and it is only leather and rubber that Sam can remaster. I was, bluntly, shit out of luck - BUT I appreciate that he was honest and didn't half-ass a repair just to make a few bucks. Sam and DSR seemed so great that I was determined to give them business and returned with a several hundred-dollar price tag Michael Kors purse whose strap was simply too long (I have this issue with most purse straps because I like wearing crossbody bags on one shoulder). I called ahead of time and Sam disclosed that he could punch a hole in the strap for a super low cost of $5/hole. But when he looked at the strap in person, it would create too much slack and frankly look bad which we don't want with designer purses, now do we?! I don't exactly know what Sam was going to do in terms of his operating table but his magic involves cutting the straps and gluing back together at the seam (I think, I don't actually know and honestly, you don't ask a master artist how they do their work but just trust them); and he took the time to measure the strap while I wore the purse so that it was exactly how I would want it. I was slightly taken aback that payment must be made upfront ($30 for my strap shortening) because what if I am not satisfied or he messes something up? But I tried to calm my fears knowing he has great reviews. I dropped the purse off on Wednesday and I received a text on Friday that it was ready. When I picked up the strap, it was a beautiful work of art. The length is perfect and there is no sign of a repair. Aside from the workmanship; Sam's customer service is also fantastic. As I said, he was honest during the first visit that he couldn't fix those particular shoes, he remembered me when I returned and seemed truly happy to see me and he was patient with me while I was crying in his establishment due to some personal health and life issues I am dealing with. Sam isn't just trying to make money off customers but also treats them with compassion. Deluxe Shoe Repair is definitely the only place I will be taking any shoes or purses for repair herein out but please note that cheap run of the mill shoes can't be repaired such as canvas fabric on fabric. So, if you are looking to pretend you are in medieval times and have a personal cobbler but with modern-day artistry; head to Deluxe Shoe Repair.
