It's important to me to support businesses in my neighborhood. Solomon & Solomon is a shoe shine…read moreand shoe repair business. Both parts of the business were quite active when I dropped off my shoes and picked them up. I dropped off 4 pairs of shoes in dire need of heel repair Tuesday morning. They were ready Friday afternoon, when they said they would be. The work is awesome. The price was reasonable. The people were friendly and Mr. T thanked me for supporting his business. I WILL be back soon!

Wow. It's 2019. This long-running local business, well-insulated with regulars, is apparently stuck…read morein the past. I have tried to support the business twice over the last year and have left disappointed each time. First, I sought a repair on a boot sole. Granted, the boots are about 20 years old but they are high-end, super comfy and the simple sole repair has been done once before - albeit at my go-to downtown. I thought I would try a local biz and avoid the trip. The older cobbler smoked me over real good before getting on to the estimate, which was nearly 60% higher than what I had been quoted over the phone by my go-to, which regularly repairs high-end items. So I declined and returned downtown. Several months later, I returned to S&S for a shoe shine. One person before me was getting a shine; seven other gentlemen and a mail lady engaged in "shop talk" and flirting. Harmless and even fun, until I rose to pay for the service. I asked "How much?", and all chatter and yelling stopped. An indirectly disparaging comment was made by one of the guys and the others laughed. I paid for the service and left, vowing to never return. It struck me that this little "jewel" of a shop is enclosed in a very restrictive bubble and its patrons are perhaps largely regulars. If someone is neither recognized nor fits into their approved box, they are made to feel unwelcome and/or exorbitantly charges. Unfortunately, it has not moved with the times or learned some of the basic business best practices such as market comparisons. It's unfortunate for them because if the repair quality is adequate, they have lost out. I am a shoe FANATIC!

Fernando's Shoe Repair - I love the shop. I only asked him to replace zipper, and they did. But they seem to have put all new toggles onto the bag.

Very Gooooooood Work on My Shoes and Great Service ...I Will return with more items for him to…read morerepair‼‼‼

they did a horrible job on my shoes. I got them re-colored and clean and I can tell they just…read morecolored over the old shoe polish without even stripping them or anything. The color is flaking off. They got die on my souls and they didn't clean the shoes at all. I will not be going back. When I took my shoes back, they pretended as though they clean their shoes before coloring them, and the shoes were obviously not clean. They tried to say it was stain. when I told him I had another shoe shot that says that they could clean them with no problem. He got upset and tried to give me the shoes back. Tell me to go get them clean first and then bring them back and he will die, though, after I already paid to clean the shoes and die obviously if I took him to the other shop first and all of the dye started rubbing off the shoes they would not be responsible for it I had to argue with the owner and his wife for a half of an hour before they admitted it was their fault that died was coming off and the whole time he arguing he's rubbing the shoe with his thumb in the dye is coming off when I asked him if that was normal he had to admit it wasn't, these people are very deceptive and manipulative and would rather try to blame you or make you think you're crazy before accepting responsibility craziest part of it all that he told me he had a problem with me giving him a bad review on the Internet ‍
