This is by far the best service I have ever received. I dropped off my red bottoms and they were finished in two days. I had the red bottoms replaced and they look brand new!!!! I will be sending all my friends here! read more

**** EDIT**** READ THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS BEFOR YOU MAKE A DECISION TO BIRING YOUR FAVORITE SHOES OR BOOTS HERE! Picked up my shoes Friday everything appeared to be amazing. I was so happy. My boots looked great. He cleaned them up nicely. The heels looked great too. These are my absolute favorite shoes, Lord & Taylor. On to Saturday. I was in my shoes for a total of 3 hours. About 2 hous in is when I noticed they were peeling. I was getting so many compliments on my shoes and I looked down and I can see the peeling pieces poking out the side from under the ball of my foot. I contacted Rafi first thing Monday and sent him a text with video. He is taking no responsibility. I feel like he was trying to do a good job. He replaced the heel tips and I believe he used some kind of cleaner on the shoes which caused them to peel . I definitely would not trust this business with expensive shoes! I went here because of the high revenues but I neglected to read the bad ones that include pictures of the workmanship or lack of. Big mistake! I feel bad about editing this review because so many people had bad experiences with him initially and initially my experience was great until I had a problem. Then he got defensive and deflected any and all responsibility. He has offered to try to fix them, at my expense, but I would no longer trust him after this experience and after reading and seeing negative reviews and pictures. ***** Initial Review before wearing my beautiful shoes***** Been sitting on 2 pair of boots and 1 pair of heels in need of heel tips for some time now. Special event comes up and I want to wear those heels so badly. So I went in search of a shoe repair / shoe cobbler. Found the most welcoming individual here at the Shoe Cobbler in Norco. He is friendly. He is fast. He is efficient. He went above and beyond, not only to replace my heel tips but to bring my shoes back to their Glory Days. All in all I highly recommend this business. If you are in need of shoe repair you will not be disappointed. Don't throw those shoes away bring them back to their Glory Days! Hahaha. This is not a paid for review. He stands by his word and so do I. read more

Quick response to an inquiry is always much appreciated. Service requested: I reached out to see if they could fix the inside of my peeling shoes and they explained to me that they couldn't be fixed. I appreciate the time they took to reply to the request even though it wasn't the outcome I'd hope for. read more

So quick and friendly service! I just thrifted these leather casual heels that was missing the tip of one heel and he fixed it within the day! AND cleaned up the shoes as well all shiny! Very friendly and welcoming environment :)) read more

Raffi did a phenomenal job on my Danner resole and boot shine. As u can see my boots were on their last leg, literally could feel the rocks beneath my feet at work. Raffi made them look brand new.

The zipper busted on my docs that docs no longer makes and my heart broke. I called around and no one would grantee that they could change the zippers. Thank god, I found this shop.

I will totally come back with my other leather goods. read more

Raffi was able to do same day service. Knowledgeable and the service was quick to recap my pole heels and add new suede to some Latin dance shoe. read more

Rafi is an absolute craftsman. My friend Reggie Foster recommended him, and I'm so glad he did. Brought in a pair of leather boots I thought were beyond saving -- scuffed, worn-down heels, busted stitching -- and he returned them looking better than new. His attention to detail is remarkable, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his work. Quick turnaround, fair pricing, and he took the time to explain exactly what he did. This is the kind of old-school quality that's rare to find. Rafi has a customer for life. read more

I had such a great experience today with our local shoe cobbler, Raffi! I reached out to him after a disappointing visit to another shoe store. I explained what happened and what service I needed. Although he didn't have the machine to fulfill my request, he went out of his way to help--he asked if he could call me back, then contacted another shop on my behalf. He told me exactly who to speak with and sent me their way. I followed his recommendations, and everything worked out as he said. I'm incredibly grateful for Raffi's over the top effort in helping me with my requested. Amazing customer care! read more

Raffi was a joy to work with! Our interaction started when I texted him for a quote. He responded immediately and he gave me the info I needed. I then went to his shop and he put heel taps on 3 pairs of boots, while I waited. You can tell he loves his job and has been doing it 25 years. It's so nice to be helped by such a cheerful person.

Raffi did an amazing job on my husbands boots. They look great and we couldn't be happier. The service is top notch, and he had a 24 hour turnaround. Highly recommend! We will be back for the next time we have to resole his boots! read more

DO NOT COME HERE!! Broke my shoes!!Extremely rude argumentative and rushed through the repair of my shoes resulting in permanent damage. When confronted about the ill quality of repair I was told they were already damaged before being brought to him which was a complete lie. He broke my vintage flats and tried to cover it up poorly and argued with me about the repair. These are vintage irreplaceable shoes. I am extremely disappointed and baffled by this service. Do not bring your shoes here if you care about them. read more

I've utilized Shoe Cobbler's services on several occasions to repair heels, straps, and padding. Quick turnaround and fair pricing (saving me lots of $$$). The only repair shop I trust with my high quality shoes. Expensive shoes can be irreversibly damaged by allowing a less than competent person to repair them. The owner Raffi is always welcoming, very knowledgeable, and provides nothing less than superior service and quality craftsmanship. Far more deserving of a 5 star rating! read more

This place is amazing. Fast service and guaranteed satisfaction. I have been coming here for years and the quality is always top notch. He has shined multiple pairs of boots for me as well as work shoes. Cheaper than most cobblers around!! read more

After doing some research on Yelp, I found Rafi with the highest/most ratings and figured he was the guy. I took my Red Wing Pecos to him to be resoled and sent him a video on Instagram showing him exactly what I wanted. I took my boots to the shop and told him exactly what I wanted too. He explicitly told me it was not a problem, he was a man of his word, and he'd get it done. What I got back was a massacre. Instead of removing the original stitching in the welts of my boots, he stitched over them with new stitching. It looked like a toddler stitched the boots. One stitch is completely coming out of my left boot. He forgot to put in a midsole like I requested as well. Lastly, he didn't finish (color) the new leather on the heel. When I sent him an Instagram message with many pictures stating my issues, he was clearly irritated that I sent the message after 10pm (it's Instagram, check it in the morning if you don't want messages) and told me it was "just a boot" and he'd re-do it. No apology. No remorse. Just dismissiveness. I've had two other cobblers look at it and tell me that the welts are ruined and need to be replaced. I don't trust Rafi to re-do these. For someone who has been in business over 52 years, I expect better craftsmanship. Instead, I lost $140. I'll have to spend more money somewhere else, but at least I'll find someone who knows what they're doing and isn't all talk. read more

I brought my new Chanel ballet flats to Raffi because the bottoms were super slippery, and I wanted rubber soles added for better grip and to protect them. I messaged him on Sunday night, and he actually replied really fast, even though it was the weekend. I dropped the shoes off on Monday, and he said it would probably take about a week. The next afternoon, he called and said they were ready, which surprised me because it felt so quick. At first, I was a little nervous that it might not be done well, but when I picked them up, they looked amazing! The new soles looked like they were part of the original shoes, and everything was done super nicely. I've included some photos of said shoes. Raffi was fast and did such a good job. If I ever need something fixed again, I'll totally go back. Highly recommend! read more

Hi, There are not enough positive adjectives to describe Raffi and the Shoe Cobbler! After conditioning my ranch boots, i noticed a small hole forming on the sole of one boot and some cracking on both soles. Knowing I wanted someone good to work on my boots, I immediately jumped on Yelp and searched for a cobbler in Norco. Where else would you look but horse town USA to have your favorite cowboy boots repaired?! The shoe cobbler popped up with a 4.9 rating and over 500 glowing reviews! I almost could not believe what I read. I went straight over and sure enough, every single thing I read about Raffi and his business was TRUE! Raffi is incredible nice. Been in the family business forever and took incredible pride in his work and his business. He took a looked at my boots and recommended a complete resole. He asked about how long I had my boots and how I used them. He gave me some excellent advice on some simple changes on how to make the soles last longer next time. Something I totally appreciate! I left my boots and told Raffi to take his time getting them done. I wanted a good job done. Literally two days later, I got a phone call from Raffi telling me my boots were done! I was pleasantly shocked! I picked them up a few minutes ago. He did a BEAUTIFUL job! He even conditioned my boots again! I am thrilled with the job Raffi did. I also found the pricing for the quality of work to be quite fair! Go see Raffi for ALL of your shoe needs! Jim read more

Took care of my girls boots just in time for Christmas! Best customer service ever! I truly appreciate how kind he was

One year later, yet another amazing job done. These boots are my everyday riders and I desperately needed them polished and retouched for a formal event. Raffi fixed these boots to even-better than pristine shape, and they were ready as soon as the day after I brought them in! Pricing is always honest and more than fair. Raffi is a skilled & punctual professional, as well as extremely warm to his clients and community. read more
