European Shoe Repair

I bought a brand new pair of $ 700 Alice & Olivia boots for $ 10 because no normal person could get their feet into them. I just KNEW that a brilliant shoe repair person could find a way to make these work. This gentleman is AMAZING! I’m so happy with his work. And am happy to know that all of my shoe, belt & bag repairs will be in hands of a genius!!!

Fantastic service and good quality work! The location is very convenient as there is a small paid parking lot. Cost is reasonable. Closed on Sunday.

These people, a lovely gentleman and his wife, are pure genius! After two hip operations I had trouble keeping my favorite patent leather Jimmy Choos on my feet… they added a little strap and now the shoes are as sexy and adorable as ever, and now the are comfy and safe!

If it’s broken and you love it bring it here. The gentleman that runs this store with his wife are from the old country where reduce, reuse and recycle have true meaning. Need an opera glass fixed? A purse? Luggage? Zipper jammed? A broken a birdhouse? Need a wet suit repaired? A patch sewn on the bottom for your backpack? He can fix practically everything and of course your shoes will be repaired, cleaned and returned looking better than ever. I’m so glad I found this place. Old world craftsmanship at it’s finest.
Best of all the prices are old world too!

Amazing and efficient and very cost effective service. I dropped off my Prada boots which were all scuffy and two days and $ 18 later, I had a brand new pair. Highly recommend.

This place will remind you of what the word «craftsman» means. The gentleman who runs the store with his wife does an amazing job with my shoes and my wife’s purses, boots, etc. He spent two weeks dying her brown boots black and the job was so perfect that even with a magnifying glass we couldn’t tell the original color. The last time he worked on about a dozen shoes and not only was the quality outstanding but the price was so low I actually told him so and added an additional few bucks — and if you knew me you would know that’s not a frequent event. I just really appreciate quality workmanship for a reasonable price. They only take cash or check so keep the plastic in your wallet.

After getting severely dissed by a local cobbler, who informed me that repairing a pair of knee high leather doc marten boots was ‘not worth his while’, I brought my beloved footwear to LA before I flew out on vacation, hoping that not all shoe repair shops felt the same. Lucky for me (or not), Tahoe’s a special place, and I was welcomed by a nice woman at European Shoe Repair. She assured me that not only could they fix the zipper on the boots, but they would polish them as well (!). Cue to 2 weeks later, and I pick up a veritably brand new pair of boots — with a functioning zipper.
Reasonable rates, good service, and excellent quality work makes me realize that I’ll have to save all my shoe repair needs for trips to visit my mother. They’d get a 5^th star if they took credit cards (saving me the need to run around the corner to an ATM).
