Era's Shoe Repair

Feb 2023

Incredible. I have a pair of Allen Edmond Shreeveports that had a hole worn through woven leather. I asked if he could repair it, and he said it was unlikely. So I asked him to put a new heel on and buff the wood soles. I came back a week later and he had individually cut, stitched and glued leather strands to match the pattern in the shoe, replaced the heels, buffed the wood side of the soles and polished the leather...he essentially saved a $450 dollar shoe. Rarely do you find someone these days that under-promises and over delivers for pennies on the dollar.

Wish I had taken before and after photos of my shows before they were taken in. This gentleman did phenomenal work on my Ecco’s. Restitched the upper foot piece of leather, patched up my worn out heels from taking them on/off, and polished them to look like they were brand new again. All for a reasonable price considering the cost of a new pair of Ecco’s. I will definitely be back as needed. Thank you for the top tier work!

I've used this shop several times over the last 15 years and always walked away with high quality work. This mostly for hard use footwear such as back country ski boots, heavy Italian made mountaineering boots, military boots and more. Expensive boots that after many hard Alaska adventures are worth putting a little re-hab into vs. buying new. You'll leave confident in the getting more years of heavy use of your outdoor gear for a lot less then buying new. (After all, once you get them broken in, there's no need to do that again!) He'll do heavy sole replacement, internal repairs to worn footbeds and linings and often hand drill/stitch shoe bottoms to inner soles in order to rebuild them. He's an old school craftsman who is a credit to his profession!
