I have been using Johnson's Shoe Repair for years. Not only does he do a great job he is very friendly and a great person to talk to. I even take my friends things there when they need work done. I will continue to take my repairs there in the future. read more

For those of you who didn't know, shoe repair is back in style. It's tough economic times after all and it's trendy to be economical. So, why buy a new pair of shoes when you could just repair your old ones? Because you've worn through your old ones you say? Well before you toss those aside, you might want to cruise by Johnson's and see if he can't breathe some life back into them. Here's a story: I bought a pair of Birkenstocks back in 1998. Where I come from, they were super stylish that year even when worn with wool socks. I wasn't the guy who kept a hacky sack on hand and wore them year round but they got some consistent wear during the summer months. As you might guess, my sandals wore down over time and about four years ago one of the rubber soles detached. This was a career-ending injury for this particular pair, but being the hoarder that I am, I set them on a Yaffa block tower down in my basement. The story doesn't end there though. No, this is a comeback story. A few weeks ago, while planning for a trip, I began to realize that what I would really like to bring with me is a nice pair of sandals. "Kind of like those Birkenstocks I used to have" I thought. (Picture light bulb illuminating above head) I ran downstairs and found my sandals on the Yaffa block tower. I called up Johnson's and asked if he repaired Birkenstocks. "Uh, yeah" he said. When I took them over to him, I knew he wasn't kidding because there's a huge sticker on his front door that reads "Authorized Birkenstock Repairer" - I instantly forgave him for his annoyed tone on the phone. Anyway, he gave them a physical, diagnosed some issues and asked me to give him a few days. A few days passed, I returned to pick them up and they were as good as new. Not literally, I mean there are still some scuffs on the straps and the foot bed is the same (= still broken in) but the cork was all rebuilt and he put new soles on. Now I'm back in business and feeling like a high schooler again. Thanks Johnson! read more

See all

They did a great job on re-soling my boots. They look good as new!

***Update*** The owner of this business called me to apologize and explain the situation. I appreciate anyone who will accept responsibility for their actions, and will probably be willing to give them another try sometime. read more

I had some heels recapped here about a year or so ago, and he did a totally decent job. Prices seemed fair, and turnaround time was reasonable. I'd definitely go here again! read more

I just had a pair of shoes re-heeled here. Looking at them now, I could not be happier with the job done. The heels look great, he polished the shoes, and recolored the edges of the soles. All of that for $20 and my shoes look gorgeous. He was very prompt and friendly and I truly enjoyed my experience here. I never write reviews here but I created an account just for this experience. I know how important reviews are for small businesses and Johnson's deserves a lot of credit for the work they do. read more

I have kept a pair of sandals for years. I took them in, and Johnson's completely rebuilt them: platforms, heels, etc. and even did clean up work on the sides to seal in rough areas. After 10 years, I'm back in my shoes! They're comfortable and look brand new again. Definitely quality work and reasonable turnaround time. I will definitely be a returning customer again in the future! read more

I left one shoe repair store because the cobbler would not listen to my specific request. Arrived at Johnson's shoe repair where he was also not listening to what I requested to have done. I was trying to relay specific directions from the manufacture of my expensive belt for the work that needed done. Giving up on personal service, I opted to have him complete the work. Price is reasonable and the work was OK. I will try to finish sealing the edges of the cuts when I get home. read more

I took a pair of boots in two weeks ago to add a rubber half sole (to protect the leather soles) and after wearing the boots 5 times one half sole has already started peeling off. Never coming back here. read more
