Whenever we need to have our shoes or bags fixed, or have an extra set of keys made, it's nice to know that there are small, community-based shops like Mr. Kiwie.
We all have our favorite shoes and feel more than a little sad when they break apart. But if that pair can be saved, there is Mr. Kiwie to the rescue.
I've had this pair of leather shoes for the longest time, more than 10 years. Some time ago, the sole cracked open, and I was just about ready to throw it away. But I decided to head for Mr. Kiwie to see if it could still be salvaged. Lo and behold, they fixed it good as new. Best of all, when I went to retrieve it, they actually gave it a shine. How's that for a little extra worth noting?
I've also had office and house keys made because like everyone, I have a tendency to lose these little buggers.
Incidentally, Mr. Kiwie is one of two chains that offer this type of necessary service. Their main competitor can be found in SM Bicutan, and there is a big price discrepancy. I guess the rent at the mall must be way higher than the little shop at Dona Soledad. But I'm sure there's no difference where service is concerned. Fact is, they have exactly the same equipment. read more
