While she was helpful and thorough in her explanation, I remain frustrated that nothing could be done to honour it.

The last time I was here was yesterday for their October 2016 sale. I went on the last day of the October sale, and I found that the selection wasn't as good as from their sales about a year ago. First off, there wasn't much selection for women, and a lot of their merchandise are for guys. Last year, I was able to find a $10 warm hoodie, but now, the cheapest one I could find was $40 and I got the last piece with my right size. My fiance was able to purchase many hoodies, and there was a lot in stock - for guys. This time though, I was impressed by the abundance of Timberland shoes, I was able to purchase a couple of men's boots for my fiance with a good price. I checked my receipt and the calculated average of savings I get is 50%. I would recommend still checking this place out, as this is a big warehouse sale, and they have a lot of different types of clothing to shop for. They have hoodies, sweaters, t-shirts, work-out clothes, work pants, winter boots, safety shoes, winter jackets, golf apparels, even beauty products and jewelery! The warehouse is very organized, they have a lot of staff who can help, and the check out process was also fast and efficient. Review 100 of 100 - YAYY!

My old suede boots were very worn out and part of the sole of the boot came off. I looked up the…read morereviews of this place and took my boots there. They said the glue of the sole to the boot was really old and has expired and needs to be re-glued. I told them that they were given to me by my late mom and I am from out of town and I had to get them fixed. Normally it would take them a few days, but they were so kind that they expedited the repair and I was able to pick them up within a few hours. I am so impressed with Professional Shoe Repair. They are quick, and did an impeccable repair job. I highly recommend!

Mine isn't a fake review, and I can provide photos, so before you visit, please read my review. I don't know, maybe my expectations were too high, or maybe my request was just too hard? I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but after wearing the results, I'm afraid I have to give this two stars. I have a pair of shoes that I've worn for two to three years straight, every single day. I love it, and bought it in Japan. Not very expensive, only around $40. Recently, it's been flaking more and more, as it's waterproof and I will sometimes walk over snow and rain. I wanted to wear it for a lot longer, so I looked for places for shoe repair. Maybe this is on me, but I just went with the first place that had a good review and was relatively close. The guy was nice about it as I explained, and at first he said it was impossible. I just wanted to replace the leather, and I said that if he could do it, even if it was expensive, I would pay. That was probably a mistake, but I've never gotten anything repaired before, so please excuse my ignorance. He was like, okay, what if we put real leather and change out the sides, so at least the cracked part will no longer be cracked? And we resole it and make it look like new? I explained that I didn't care what he did, as long as he kept the inside and that when I slipped on the shoe, it would be as comfortable as the first day I bought it. And so we finalized and I paid, and left to await the news to pick it up, which he said would be a week later. Let me preface this to say, I did not request a resoling, he was the one to bring it up. I only wanted to cracks replaced, and I thought, oh, if he's changing out the sides, then maybe he needs to resole? When I got back to my car, my dad asked me how it was. I told him I paid upfront, and it was $200. He told me it wasn't worth it, and that I could've bought four new shoes with that money. It was actually closer to $226, I guess with tax? But he didn't say that when I was paying, and I didn't pay attention to the price when paying, so I assumed it was a flat $200. Also, I paid upfront, but my dad told me that I shouldn't have, as he had the shoes, and I couldn't guarantee he would do a good job. In retrospect, that maybe should have clued me in to the product I was getting. But I also can't be sure that maybe that's how things are done in the shoe repair industry now? But I was pretty nervous and didn't think of these things. My dad also said that if I wanted to keep the comfort of the shoes, the guy wouldn't have said to resole it for me. As the soles were part of the comfort of the shoe, and the insides were not the only thing that was important. I tried to call him after I got home to tell him not to resole, but he told me that he had already started fixing the shoe. Okay, it was too late, but I figured, since he knows about shoes, maybe the sole wasn't as important to the comfort as my dad had said? And here's where we get to the crux of the matter. When I got the shoes, it looked... well, not that great. I was expecting better integration of the leather, and not this slapdash stitching. Maybe that's just my unrealistic expectations or that I'm an artist, fine. But the most important part, the comfort and pillowy feeling of the shoe when I put it on... it's gone. Now it's like stepping into tap dancing shoes, or those really cheap shoes you get at fast fashion stores. The sole feels flat, thin and cheap. I didn't ask for the resoling. I only asked for the cracks to be fixed. If he was only going to stick the leather on top of the shoe and stitch it, like it totally looks in the picture, why did he need to resole it? I can't guarantee that's what he did exactly, but it looks like that, and it kind of feels like that too. I guess he polished it too, but it's not noticeable because he didn't fix the other small cracks. As a shoe repairman, shouldn't you know that when a person wants to keep the comfort level of the shoe, that a sole replacement would change that? But no, he told me that the comfort level would stay the same. That's a lie. My dad told me straight off that the sole would change the feel of the shoe, and he's a layperson. I didn't know that, and now I'm paying for shoes that don't look that great, and the soles are making my feet hurt. Every time I wear these shoes now, I'm depressed, and I utterly regret getting these shoes repaired. This actually made me cry. These were my favourite pair of shoes, and I was hoping I could continue wearing them for two more years. Now that the comfort is gone, I don't know what was the point. I don't even feel like wearing them as it feels like I am stepping on flat floor instead of wearing shoes. I had such high hopes, but now I'm never getting any shoes repaired ever again.

Knowledgeable staff! Nearly miraculous shoe find…read more I've been looking for a comfortable pair of shoes for over a year (maybe more). I have specialty orthotics and struggled wearing the wrong shoes with them which meant they added little comfort and I had no clue why. I usually take hours shopping for shoes and can't find something satisfactory. Bev, working there, asked me if I needed help and I gave her the rundown with the expectation that she wouldn't be much assistance as has been the case in every other store. Instead, she blew me away by finding the perfect pair of shoes I needed. The second I tried them on my jaw dropped due to the comfort. She explained to me exactly why my current shoes didn't help (they weren't built for orthotics at all!) I was out of there in 20 minutes. Anyway I'm very happy. They train their staff well and ensure that they are familiar with the kinds of product they sell (she explained to me that's how she knew so much). A very worthy store of your dollars.

I tried on 3 dresses and I fell in love with the last two that I tried on, I ended up picking one very nice one. Nancy also gave me a wallet that matched both my shoes and my dress that was absolutely gorgeous and I ended up getting that too! Nancy helped me pick my shoes and was extremely helpful!! When we were about to pay for my dress and shoes Nancy asked if we had my jewelry yet (which we hadn't gotten any yet) so she brought us over to the jewelry racks and she helped me pick out very pretty jewelry that matched my dress and shoes. Nancy also recemened some helpful products to me! After my experience I totally recommend coming to Le Château for getting prom dresses and graduation dresses!

Please consider where you get pointe shoes fitted as I would say, stay away from Gabie's Boutique…read morein Newmarket. They call themselves "experts" in fitting pointe shoes, but that's not the case. Unfortunately my daughter had a very poor experience with the recommended shoe and fit, and while I understand that it's outside the return/replacement policy, the arrogance in response from the store is astounding. They don't care to make the situation right when they were clearly wrong in their recommendation and not only contributed to a horrible experience by a first time pointe shoe user, but also jeopardized her foot health in the process. Of course, they don't see it that way and say that they would never have said this or that. They hide behind "come in and let us have a look and see if we can recommend anything to improve the situation...if not, we may offer a discount on another shoe if this one can't be worn". As I said to the store owner, if I need to buy another pair of pointe shoes, I will be doing it at another establishment, not their store. I'm saddened that my daughter's experience was marred by their lack of knowledge and an incorrect recommendation and improper fit.
