Cobbler Tri-Valley & Boot Shop

I have gone here several times. Each time, I receive top customer service and exceptional product back. Today I took my daughters softball glove in to be fixed and needed it back by the following day for another game. He was able to accommodate me. If you want to go somewhere to receive a top value product at a fair price, this is the place to go!

Great workmanship and a very nice guy!

My puppy destroyed my favorite and expensive shoes. I had my husband take them to Danny along with a very old worn out but the same pair hoping he could use the old pair for parts and repair the newer pair. My husband was told they would be ready Saturday 4 days from drop off. We went Saturday to pick up the shoes. I was pleasantly Surprised and even a little shocked that both pairs were repaired and looked great!!! He went above and beyond my expectations on the repairs!!! They were ready on time and both pairs were repaired when I was only expecting the one thank you much!!! I will be using his shop again!!!

Wonderful quality, timing & pricing. Very lucky to have this caliber of a cobbler in my town. I frequently have pointy toe tips repaired, scuffed & worn stilletto heels revived and my boot heals resoled. They do a wonderful job restaining/​coloring/​polishing old boots too.

This shop has served me well for boot repair. Boot polishing is not very detailed, but that may not be the business he is in. Good guy, gives discount for cash. Really shows appreciation when tipped.

I’m shocked at how this place got great reviews! Maybe friends or family or paid reviews, arggh who knows. It took about 1 week to get my bag back. The only problems it had were the corners slightly rubbed off and it needed to be reconditioned. Dan asked when I needed it back so I said a day later thinking that was an option. He said ok. I come to get it and the bag is not fixed. It looked like something I could’ve done with a Kiwi color kit in 10 mins. Mind you, there was no sewing repair or any other complicated thing to be done. So I left it with him for another 4 days. I came the morning of the day he circled on the ticket and then he told me to come back another time more like at the end of the day. This whole time it has been sitting there and not being repaired. So he finally calls me around 3pm to pick up. Well guess what! Looked the same as when I left it with him. Dan is impolite saying «Don’t rush me» after he asked when I needed it in the first place and said ok to my day. Then again he says «too soon» after coming back on the circled day! Waste of time & money.

Dan at Trivalley cobbler is amazing!!! He worked on my beautiful fried boots until they were stretched to fit me perfectly and they look gorgeous! Thanks to all who recommended him he’s truly the best in the valley. I will definitely be referring everybody I know who has need for a shoe genius! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Dan! I can’t wait to wear my new boots!

I live in San Francisco, but when I need my shoes worked on, I wait until I’m visiting family in Livermore so that I can take them here. Absolutely top notch work at reasonable prices. My only concern: is he passing the knowledge and craft on, because I never want to take my shoes anywhere else.

I went here because of all the positive reviews and feed back this company receives. Man I am impressed!
I am writing this review because they have no one in the reviews that stated they have brought their high end designer shoes here and I wanted other’s to know this is a safe place to bring your high end shoes.
Skeptical at first, I decided to leave my Louboutins to get the red re-​soled on them. Needless to say they came back perfect! Bonus it only cost me $ 18. If you pay up front rather than later he offers you a discount.
Not only do my shoes look perfect (Posted pic for reference), he answered every annoying question I had about other shoes I was planning to purchase, and gave me good insight on which shoes are best to buy and which shoes are best to avoid. I highly recommend this company.

Quick repair, great price. No complaints here

Amazing work! It’s always done on time and if the results aren’t exactly what you want, he fixes it. I’ve had several shoes reheeled here and they come back looking brand new. I’ve also had several pairs stretched and resized; he does so gradually so he doesn’t overshoot the mark. The work is very impressive and the price is very low.

Great shoe repair guy! he has given new life to my old shoes, purses, and son’s backpacks many times. Highly recommend him! Plus he’s very sweet and I enjoy his Nashville country music too.

Back in March, I needed to get some old and very dusty dress shoes shined. They had been in box for years, unworn. I found Tri-​Valley Cobbler through a web search. The reviews I read were good, so I decided to give this place a shot. The service I received was simply outstanding! The cost was less than I thought it would be, he remembered me when I returned to the store to get the shoes, and he made them look like brand new. I couldn’t be happier!
Granted, a shoe shine isn’t as involved as getting shoes resoled or anything, but I was very impressed with work and service I received. I will definitely return for future shoe needs!

They did a decent job on my boots I had resoled but I was dissapointed that they do not accept Credit/​Debit cards. They offer you a semi-​discount if you pay upfront by cash. I was a first time customer and was sent by Baughmans, the guy at the counter seemed annoyed that day and semi rude. However I will give them another shot with a different pair of boots. Hopefully the second time I come in, i won’t feel as uncomfortable as I did the first time.

Heard about this fabulous gem (and Dan) from Baughman’s Western Outfitters’ referral when I was in desperate search of a shop, who could stretch my two brand new pairs of boots for my über wide, gymnastic calves. Though this place is a drive for me, after great reviews and local friends’ referrals, I had much faith. Dan was very polite and honest on what needed to be done, over the phone and even nicer in person.
I must share when he gave me the quote for both pairs, I had to ask him to say it again and confirm it was for BOTH pairs, under $ 20. Um, awesome! Cash Only, FYI.
So how did my boots turn out? One pair had to go back to the store (unworn) as it didn’t fit after the stretch from the partial elastic design — which Dan forewarned me could happen over the phone and my choice to try anyways, but the second, all leather pair fit great, but I wanted more to fit my jeans inside them. Dan gladly took them back the following week to stretch them even more, if not to the max and without charging me again. He also waterproofed my boots that I wore into the shop! Even *Awesomer* Customer Service!!!
A little effort and small fee to make my fancy Ariats, my dream boots. Thank you again, Dan!

Solid service.

This guy made a fan of me.
First: I went in to see if he could do anything about the creases developed in my leather dress shoes. I bought the shoes used at Goodwill ($ 15 for some Cole Haans — great deal). When I bought them, the leather was already in bad shape with creases throughout. After using them for about 3 years while in law school, I decided to see if something could be done. I didn’t know if creases could be fixed, but since I loved the shoes I decided to try my luck.
When I brought them in, he looked at them and told me he’d try and see what he could do. He advised that the creases were pretty bad, but he’ll try. I asked how much, to which he replied, «We’ll see how good it looks then I’ll let you know.» To that vague answer I was a little hesitant but trusted he wouldn’t be shady. Anyways, I go back to pick them up and he says he was able to make them look a little better, but most of the creases there’s nothing he could do.
Okay, I said, well how much? He said, don’t worry about. I thought they looked pretty good and was surprised we wouldn’t charge me for anything.
Impressed by his honesty and generosity, I decided to re-​heel the shoes. He explained what he would do and since I told him I’d most likely be working in Seattle, he recommended some rubber soles (I’d prefer leather for style-​sakes, but that risks slipping on my ass in the rain). It would cost about $ 44, but a 10% discount if I prepaid. They don’t take credit cards, so I asked if I could come back in later that day to give him cash. Sure, he said.
Next: When I came in to pick up my re-​heeled shoes they looked really good. Even more, he said I could keep the shoe-​trees he had in the shoes so I can maintain the form and prevent creases. Wow, he would give me the shoe trees for free. I would have bought them, but he said he would throw them out anyways.
Summary: Pleased with his work, pleased with his prices, more than pleased with his courtesy.
This shop gets a big recommendation from me! (Just remember to bring cash or check)

I want to buy more things made of leather, just so I can come back here.
This guy is amazing. I took in my Lucky Brand, genuine leather purse that had a pretty large rip in it. I had been pretty depressed because it’s my favorite purse. I showed it to him and he said he could fix it but it wouldn’t be too pretty. I said go for it. I came back a week later to pick it up and looked AMAZING. I couldn’t tell where it had ripped! He even fixed a couple other areas that needed some repairs. It looked amazing and gorgeous. The man is a master of his craft! I was so happy that I could’ve given him a giant hug.
Oh, and it only cost me $ 19.

He is amazing! I brought in a pair of patent leather heels that needed heel re-​tipping and had a scuff on the patent leather and he fixed it within 2 days for $ 10. They look brand new again!
I also brought him a pair of brand new Marc Jacob leather heels to be stretched (bought them online but they ended up a half size to a full size small). I came back after two days and tried them on. They were still too small, so he took them back and I came back three days later… a pair of shoes at least a half size to a full size too small now fits my feet! I would rate him 5 stars even if all my repairs weren’t as cheap ($ 5 for stretching, and he even offered to continue stretching them if I need to bring them back), but his amazing prices makes me want to give him 10 stars.

What amazing work he does! My Coach tote handle broke and I took it in to see if he can fix it — he can and he did! You can’t even tell which handle was broken! Prices are so good here I want to look through my closet and see what else needs fixing. His price was WAY cheaper than me sending it back to Coach! And I got it back in 2 days… because he asked me when I wanted it back and I just said Saturday.
Love that he is local and very friendly and great fast service!
