Shoe Spa

I’m very pleased with their workmanship and customer service. I will become a regular cusomer. I not only took in a couple of my shoes but my mom’s as well. My mom was very impressed. Yuri and Jamie made her shoes look and feel brand new.

«Do you need to have your shoes cleaned? «
I looked at my cousin as he asked me that question. I replied «No.» and walked away. I thought it was a trick question. I tend to over analyze at times but didn’t want to pursue this further.
But then I noticed several pairs of shoes that looked almost brand new. They were so clean and in great shape. My cousin then informed me of this shoe cleaning business. I found this very interesting and this got my attention.
Apparently the shoe cleaning service is popular in Korea. I was told you can pretty much find this type of store on every block in Korea.
This is what Shoes Spa is all about. They provide a shoe cleaning business here in Honolulu. Located several doors down from The Sake Shop on S King St., this small yet very bright, well organized store opened for business since October 21^st.
It’s pretty simple here. You drop off your «dirty» shoes and can pick them up in about 48 hours. I was able to speak with the co-​owners Jamie and Yuri. Both speak Korean while Jamie speaks English and Yuri speaks Japanese. Both provided me a lot of information. Friendly and great service here.
They have special washing machines that not only clean, they also disinfect and deodorize your shoes. I was shown the special washing machine with hot pink bristles that are gentle to your shoes. Then it gets placed into the special drying machine. Hot air is blown from the inside so your shoes dry as well as deodorize!
In addition to shoes, they also clean handbags, comforters, baby strollers and car seats. However, I was advised handbags take about a week to clean.
Compared to washing your shoes in the washing machine, you mother or wife won’t get mad at you for tossing filthy shoes in the machine at home and you won’t easily damage your sports shoes! The Shoes Spa offers such a unique and great service. Shoes protect your feet and we travel a great distance with them. It makes sense to treat your shoes to a day at the spa for some pampering. You protect them and provide longevity. And they’ll smell great when you get them back!
Take the time to check this place out. For a nominal fee you can now clean and deodorize your shoes.
