I've always wore Keen boots practically all of my adult life, and almost always the same type: the…read moreTarghee model, and have had nothing but great results wearing it in almost all situations around the world: walking hiking and exploring in Palma de Mallorca, the too-many streets and calles of all parts of Spain, in Sweden and Norway, the hot streets of Morocco and Alexandria, Egypt and the pyramids, Germany, and in other places/cities like up and down too many streets of New York City, and too many other countries, as I love hiking and walking any and everywhere, and in all sorts of extreme weather! For example: in London alone in the early 70s, I walked 10miles to see the Tower Bridge, then walked back to a rented room. In Mallorca, I took the tren to Puerto de Soller, saw a mountain, then climbed it and snapped a pix, then discovered, oh, there's a road! I've been wearing Keen boots for more years than I can remember. So recently when the lug that holds the shoelace cracked in half, I looked high and low online for a shoe shop that could fix my boot. Finding this little shop wasn't too much of a problem, and after giving him the shoe, he looked at it, then simply asked when I wanted it done. If you want it fixed tomorrow, then it will be done tomorrow. WoW!! I was impressed! I'll be picking it up in a few days. Will update when it's picked up in a few days! UPDATE: Perfect work done and very quick! I told him when I dropped it off that I'll pick it up over the weekend, about four days later. He said okay. Actually I think I went during a chore to pick it up on Wednesday; not only was it ready, it looked as good as new! Impressed and happy were the emotion felt upon seeing the shoe!!

I was beyond impressed. A small black decorative patch that matched another design elsewhere on the boot was applied. And it looked like it belonged there. I was overjoyed with the results. This "Cobbler" is an artisan not just a shoe repairer. Highly recommend. And totally affordable.

My wife and I had an acute issue with a chair that was uncomfortable to sit in. Due to recent…read moresurgery, this chair required careful, expert attention to permit comfortable sleep during recovery. In short, it was a very challenging situation for us. Aware of our issue, Rocco and Joel came to our home twice to assess and remedy this situation for us. As a team, they analyzed the chair stuffing and structure, devising a solution in close consultation with my wife. Taking the time to make this work, their actions were successful. Recovery happened. We called upon them again to assist in covering a scratch on a leather chair. Once again, expert outcome. I have to say, Rocco, Joel at Fibrenew are at the top of the who-to-call list if we have any related issues with our other furniture. Simply Outstanding.

Extremely satisfied with the work they performed to repair a torn seat bolster on a 2004 Corvette…read morefor my business. They were easy to work with, got the car in their shop in just a few days, and got it back to me with 24 hours. The quality was great, and Rick even went above and beyond to reinforce it so the same tear wouldn't happen again due to a plastic piece inside the seat. I went to another shop first who said it was impossible to fix it, and the only option was a complete new cover for $800- for less than a quarter of that I've got it taken care of. I would recommend taking your auto upholstery needs here.

I sent Upholstery Unlimited photos of the two pieces of furniture that I wanted to have recovered…read more They called back with an estimate of the cost of labor and the amount of fabric needed. That all sounded reasonable to me. We made an appointment for me to come in and pick out fabric. They have lots to choose from. As I narrowed down what I was looking for the sales lady helping me called to get prices - the fabric I liked the best was $92/yard. I needed 18 yards for the large piece so the cost of the fabric alone would have been $1700 plus cost of labor at least $1400 = $3100. I was also told if I found fabric at a lesser cost they would charge me a $15/yard cutting fee to use fabric I didn't purchase from them. That all sounded fishy to me. Bottom line I was able to source the SAME fabric from another fabric store in Lockport for !/2 the price these robbers were going to charge me. That store also gave the name of a few upholsters that they recommended - one which I hired to do the work. So now labor is cheaper, estimated less fabric, purchased a different fabric that I like better at the Lockport store at an even better price and this guy will not charge a cutting fee. I am getting the work done for almost 1/2 of what these theives at Upholsters Unlimited wanted to charge me. DON'T DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE UNLESS YOU WANT TO GET RIPPED OFF. Shop around you will be happy you did.
