David’s Instant Shoe Repair

I have had a pair of Frye boots for 5 years and finally needed new soles. I went last week to get them fixed and he did an amazing job! One week later I have brand new dark rubber soles to match the boot and it looks so great. Definitely will be taking any and all shoe repairs to him from now on.

Satisfied customer! One of my tall boots had a small yet damaging rip on the seam. I had never been to David’s before but decided to give it a try. He was super nice and offered to do it for FREE since it was such a small job. Very impressed with the quality of the work, and, of course, the ‘price’! I’ll definitely go back as any larger jobs come up.

This store is clean and great. I’ve come here twice now and loved the service and results. Definitely a keeper to bring all future shoe repairs!

David’s is an absolute gem. I brought him a pair of much-​loved Frye boots that I scuffed and wore to pieces, and he gave me back something akin to a new pair of Frye’s. The price and turn-​around time were extremely reasonable, and the owner is a straight-​shooter. I will definitely return!

What you will not receive in service, you’ll receive exponentially in quality work.
I stumbled into David’s store after searching three other similar stores in the DT Crossing area. He quickly sized me up and I’m pretty sure I didn’t get drafted to his dodgeball team.
After he decided to help fix my messenger bag, I was skeptical. His quote was nearly $ 50 below the next best. I handed over the bag, expecting to receive a shoddy, but hopefully functional bag.
Fast forward two weeks. I took a vacation and it was awesome.
I cluck back into the store and he hands me my bag. My mouth slowly falls open as I test and pick at his work. It. Is. Beautiful. Not in the beautiful take pictures of it and send them to Haute. But perfect for me. The bag somehow looks better than ever.
After exchanging grunts I depart and whirl around my resurrected messenger bag.
It’s been a long time since Daddy’s been on the town.
Look for me on my bike with the killer bag.
I’ll have a helmet and lights.
And the perfect bag.
You’ll see me.
Don’t honk.

First, I want to say the owner is very friendly and always greets you with a smile. Second, everytime I’ve brought in a pair of shoes or a pair of boots to be fixed, I am never disappointed. His craftmanship on shoe repair is excellent! I even brought in one of my favorite leather belts that had ripped and he was able to repair it for me. His prices are very reasonable too.

The owner is so friendly and has always done great work on my shoes. He always offers to fix zippers instead of replacing them to keep the cost down.

Outstanding, friendly customer service and high quality work every time. I have brought 10+ pairs of shoes in here to have heels rebuilt, soles restored, heel taps added… you name it. It actually brightens my day to stop by here because I know I’ll have a great experience and my shoes will get years of life added on.

My heel broke off my boot at work today, and I scrambled to find this place… Nicest guys, they fixed my boot free of charge and had me out the door in 5 minutes.

Absolutely amazing! Fixed the rubber on the bottom of my high heels instantly. It looks great. Such a sweet guy. Thank you. I’ll be back.

Absolutely fantastic work. I read the reviews and went in with high expectations on my sole swap, and he’s looking at those expectations in the rear-​view mirror. Turn around time? What turn around time? I told him I was in no rush and it still took less than a week to completely rehab these shoes. My wife had to pick them up for me, and I honestly thought she’d misunderstood and just bought a new pair!
The price was a little bit higher than I expected, but still less than ¹⁄₅^th the cost of a new pair (and did I mention that these look new upon return?)! Knowing that David’s is around the corner from me has completely changed the way I’ll be doing shoe shopping from now on: I won’t be. Previously trashed shoes will go in for the full treatment, and future generations will thank David’s for enabling my frugality.

Reliable check. Affordable check. Friendly check. Knowledgeable check.
I went there for the first time a few weeks ago to get some shoes fixed. I brought in 2 pairs to fix. One pair, only one shoe needed fixing but he said he would need to fix both. I kind of debated with him about it, saying only one shoe is broken but I think his point was if one shoe is that broken surely the other show would soon follow (good point). It would have been $ 40 total to fix both shoes so it wasn’t worth it to me. Instead I let them go and trashed my beloved 14 year old shoes. =(
But the 2^nd pair both needed the heels fixed. They were hand-​me-​downs from a friend and were worn out from many late night dance parties. They were still comfortable and I enjoyed a small heel dressy shoe that was comfortable to wear all night. It was only $ 15 to repair both of them total, so that was worth it. I paid the fee, he said come back in 3 days, and I did and they were there waiting for me good as new.
Next time I need a shoe repair I will come back to him. He seems to know exactly what he’s doing and has been doing it for a long time. It’s also right by my work (recommended to me by a coworker).

It’s hard to rate the work he does because he has talked me out of doing more stuff than he’s done. I’m a volunteer firefighter and my leather fire boot has been giving me a nasty blister on my ankle every time I wear it. He took it apart, softened the offending spot and sewed it back together for $ 10. Another time I brought in a favorite pair of loafers – they are incredibly comfortable – for new soles. He told me that the shoes wouldn’t be nearly as comfortable if I resoled them and that they would be fine with the thin soles. Saved my shoes’ comfort and some expense.

David takes great care with your shoes and handbags. He redyed a pair of shoes that I bought 12 years ago and they honestly look new. It’s well worth it to spend the money to get your shoes fixed than to buy new shoes. I also don’t like breaking in new shoes so I keep mine as long as possible. David is the best!
