It needed a full replacement of the main zipper along with a few minor repairs. These folks are consummate professionals who clearly respect both materials and workmanship. The quality of the work is exceptional--you would never know any repair had been done. They restored the bag to its original splendor, carefully cleaning the leather and canvas while preserving the wonderful patina that only time and use can create. It's refreshing to find true craftspeople who take this level of pride in their work. I couldn't be more pleased with the result and highly recommend them for any of the services they offer.

It's kind of off the beaten path so I hope they get more traffic. It's a cute store and they have a nice selection of shoes for kids. I found a nice pair of new balance sneakers for my daughter as well as socks, a winter hat and gloves. My mom wanted to check out their Clarks selection. I didn't look around too much but would recommend checking them out if on the turnpike. Service was friendly and prices for the items I looked at were reasonable.

My one son has orthotics in his sneakers and they know how to find shoes to properly fit it. We love Mr. Joe and how he talks with the kids. We will come back as long as it is here. The shoes are a lil higher in price than at generic stores, but better quality. I learned working in schools (former teacher turned homeschool mama) from the PT and OT therapists that shoes are vital for proper development and posture. I saw the difference in their sessions with different shoes... I will always save so they have good footwear. They are on their feet all day just as we are and us adults notice cruddy shoes... why subject our kiddos to that.

He didn't realize that I wear a 35 instead of a 36, so we needed to return the m. Other than the size, I love the shoes. The reason for my 1 star, is because of Famous Footwear. They charged $7.95 to return the shoes. So my birthday present was paying Famous Footwear for an innocent mistake. I understand this isa discount shoe store, but they should cover the cost of returns. We won't use Famous Footwear again.

The general manager, Catherine Fuller responded, but was unwilling to help me. She could have at least offered to check with another location to see if they were in stock there.

I'm disappointed in my first East Coast contact.
