Today I took one of my new water proof buck work boots I accidentally cut a 3" slice across the toe with a utility knife. I asked if she could seal or repair. She told me yes but it would need glue& stitching to hold the cut together. I really wasn't expecting anything other than an ugly looking repair job. Just picked it up & I was pleasantly surprised. She not only made a nice tight even seal but she even color matched her stitching to my boot. $15 was a very reasonable cost compared to replacing my $110 boots. GREAT JOB CHOE!

After Abbott's in Newark closed, I was at a loss to find someone to do leather repairs. I went to…read moreChoe's with a favorite purse that needed some stitching repaired. We talked over what they could do and I left the purse with them. They did a perfect job. The repair is invisible and I am able to use it again! After that good experience I brought a treasured vintage handbag to them. It is 50 years old. It is petite point on leather and the needlework was separated from the leather. She looked the bag over. She said she could repair it, but suggested I do it myself. She sold me the glue I would need and showed me how to place the glue and clamp the bag. I was nervous, but it worked wonderfully. And, I saved the cost of the repair. I was doubly impressed. First with the repair on my leather purse, then with the honest advice for my vintage purse. I recommend Choe's for leather repair.

They put black heels on brown soles/boots that are much thicker and have a more aggressive tread than the original. It looks completely off. They said they tried to find brown but couldn't. I wish they would have called and told me before doing the repair, I would have just sent them to Red Wing. They also resoled a pair of dress shoes and those were well done.

Visited this establishment because sandal strap had come loose. 1st time I wore "repaired" sandal, entire sandal separated. Took sandal back to the store and was met with immediate attitude and accusations that I was trying to trick them. But, hello, it doesn't take much common sense to realize that if you're not seeing the glue you use to repair, then you forgot to use glue in the 1st place! Now I understand low review score. Not to mention that you are out hundreds, if not thousands, as I prefer to fix rather than throw. Gorilla glue, here I come!

After multiple trips back, one shoe was overstretched and now both pairs are unwearable. When I tried to get the mistake corrected, I was ignored, interrupted, and mocked -- even told "all I hear is blah blah blah." Instead of professionalism, I was met with disrespect and left with $260 worth of ruined shoes.
