    Great attention to detail. I trust Romie with my best shoes, and others must as well as his case is full of Zegna and Ferragamo.

    I have been a customer for years. I wish I knew how to sew, but thankfully Footworks takes care of…read moreanything I need...alterations, zippers, tough and easy projects. And they sell the coolest shoes! Most importantly, they are genuinely hood people and always do their best to exceed expectations. Thank you Footworks!!

    1 Star- Would not trust them with anything of value…read more I reached out to FootWorks to repair a softball glove that had some sentimental value. Before dropping it off, I called ahead and was told the repair was something they could handle. I even brought it in first to confirm in person. I was told by the owner, Elizabeth, it would take a couple of weeks. It ended up taking over 3 months, and I had to follow up myself just to get an update. When the glove was finally picked up, the workmanship was extremely disappointing. The repair was incomplete, poorly executed, and not functional. There are exposed and rough areas that could actually cut someone trying to use it. This isn't just a cosmetic issue, the glove is no longer usable as is. I am currently searching for a trustworthy company to handle this glove, and a few others. What I needed was very straightforward: a clean patch and some binding repair. What I got back looks rushed, unrefined, and nowhere near professional quality. I even offered to re-string the glove myself to save time. Delays happen, and not every repair goes perfectly, but the bigger issue here is taking on work that clearly exceeded the shop's capabilities and not communicating that upfront. If you're considering bringing in something you care about, I would strongly recommend getting a second opinion or looking elsewhere. Based on my experience, I would not trust this shop with items of value or anything requiring quality craftsmanship.
