I usually go here to get dress shoes redone. New leather soles, plastic or leather heels and having the insides redone will set you back 60~80 euros... that's cheaper than getting new, really cheap dress shoes... definitely worth the investment to extend the life on good shoes.

A place to avoid! I bought in a pair of soft leather shoes yesterday which had a few water stains…read moreon them. I wanted to have them cleaned and to see if anything could be done about the discoloration. The person who was working (and older gentleman who claimed to be the owner) told me it would be 90 € for the service because it would take me at least 1.5 hours to do the work. He told me I could do it myself at home and sold me two products for 12 €. I did exactly as it said and it didn't help my shoes at all. Today I went to another shoemaker with the products I was sold and asked if anything could be done for my shoes. He told me the products I was sold were not for this type of leather at all and that he could fix the discoloration for around 12-15 €. I have yet to pick my shoes up from this other place. Not only was the gentleman at Vakschoenmakerij unfriendly, but he tried to charge me an outrageous price and proceeded to sell me two products which he claimed would improve the color, but was actually just a water-repelent and a block for a TOTALLY other type of leather. I am very disappointed.

The heel for one of them came out and this place came up as the closest cobbler to my house, so that's how I ended up coming to this shop. Hakan (the cobbler) is just a totally great bloke - very friendly! I initially only bought into the shop the boot with the broken heel, but Hakan explained that he needed both to make sure what he put on the sole of the boot wouldn't be uneven with my other boot and so I dropped off the second pair one morning before work. You have to give him your cell phone nos and that functions also as your ticket number. He texted me when my boots were ready for pick-up and his cost was most reasonable. All in all, most happy and definitely recommend!! Yelp 233/ 2018
