Cobbler Express

I brought two pairs of leather boots to cobbler express and am so pleased with how they turned out. It is reasonably priced and I was so happy with the result. They saved my favorite pair of boots that had a huge hole in the sole. They’re great for serious repairs or if your shoes just need a little refresh.

They did a great job re-​soling the bottom of an old pair of louboutins. I learned my lesson the hard way so I also had them out the rubber sole in a brand new pair. They did a great job! Very nice and super understanding when I had trouble picking them up!

Excellent service! Came in with 2 bags, both vintage; one Hobo International and a Coach. One bag had a broken zipper; the craftsman told me it’s expensive to replace ($ 70) — but he will fix for $ 25, and he did — right then and there. The Coach just needed to sew the strap back on the bag. I was out of there in under a half hour. Would highly recommend.

I really can’t work out the good reviews. ¹⁰⁄₁₀ for service, ¹⁄₁₀ for execution. Took two pairs of shoes to get re-​soled, next day the lip on both started pealing back. Fair play he (hastily) re-​glued them back, though saying I must have tripped to cause it. Next week same issue reappeared, and he nailed a clip in to support it. Now two weeks later, the entire sole on both shoes is bubbling up, have to take them back. Sending them to Jim’s shoe repair this time.

Super fast and friendly. Great quality work. I was making one of many quick work trips to the city and didn’t have time to have my rubber heels replaced before I left home. I hoped I could find a place that could get this done for me quickly before I needed them once I got into town and was not disappointed! Less than 10 minutes and I was on my way!

Cobbler Express is amazing.
(1) Boot alternation (specifically on calves): I brought in a pair of expensive over the knee boots to Cobbler Express to have the calves taken in. At first, I was pretty nervous because of the lack of reviews on this specific type of alternations on Unilocal.But a week later, I went back to pick them up, and I’m very impressed with the result.
The part that impressed me the most is not just how perfect the boots look on the outside, but also inside the boots. When I flipped the calves inside out, they look exactly like original even though no one will be able to see them. This is how professional and attentive Cobbler Express is!
For those who needs to have your boots taken in, here are the photos of the «before and after» of the impressive alternation Cobbler Express did on my boots.
Pictures don’t lies.
(2) Adding protective soles: Job was done in 15 minutes. And no surprise there, they were done beautifully!
(3) Bonus: They even added the toe plate on my expensive boots for free!
Thank you Cobbler Express for the amazing job done!

One of my many Christmas gifts last year was a pair of patent leather Christian Louboutin shoes. I wore the shoes twice (New Years (briefly) and Valentine’s Day). I had no idea how easily the red soles become tarnished. I researched and found that many people get a sole protector placed on their shoes prior to wearing. After researching which businesses provided this service, I narrowed my choice down to Cobbler Express due to the reviews. I brought my shoes in on Monday. I requested them to be stretched and sole protectors. I was told that my shoes would be ready either by Wednesday or the following week. I called on Wednesday and they were ready for pickup. The job they did was fantastic. Service was impeccable. I will be bringing my bags there to be cleaned since they do this as well.

I’ve been going to Cobbler Express ever since I got my first pair of Louboutins 3 years ago because they had good reviews. This is the only place I will go with my high end shoes, and I come all the way from Central Jersey with them.
Edouard and his father always do a wonderful job with applying the Vibram soles (they don’t cover the signature, etc. like I’ve seen on other people’s shoes); the soles are put on while I wait; they have cleaned my suede shoes and they looked perfect afterwards; and I’ve had the long lasting heel taps put on that don’t wear down after 5 uses.
The work is always quickly and professionally done. I have recommended this cobbler to many friends and fellow shoe aficionados.

What a joke! I brought my cordovan boots to clean up gum residue. They handed the boots with the residue still present, and worst yet, they weren’t even polished. In fact, they looked glossier before they got their hands on them. Will never go back!

I work for a luxury shoe designer and went to Cobbler Express with a shoe emergency. They were extremely nice, helpful, fast and professional and the outcome was perfect. I strongly recommend!

Amazing shoe repair service! I dropped off my favorite pairs of shoes for complex alterations and they did a fantastic job. I was able to sit and wait for the work to be done, which is not common for adding a sole insert. Highly recommended!

I am a crazy person when it comes to my shoes. I keep them in the box for as long as possible and will jump over puddles to avoid getting new leather wet and dirty. After excessive research online, I brought two new pairs of Frye and Ugg Collection boots to Cobbler Express. Could not have been happier. They look beautiful and the owner is extremely personable. Will be going back for sure for some bags that I thought were a lost cause, but just need a good repairing. Definitely recommend!

Best in the neighborhood. Actually. Best on the east side. I have tried a few of others and cobbler express trumps all of those.
Work done:
1) Patent leather Louboutins
I’ve had them sitting unworn in my closet for close to a year because every time I’d put them on, my toes would scream in pain. Yeah. I bought my first pair of Louboutins in a size too small. As in one whole size.
**NOTE: Ladies shopping for patent leather shoes, size up. ALWAYS. Regardless of how often you size down in non patent/​regular finish. I’ve since learnt that patent has the reverse effect upon wearing it. It shrinks and sucks inward rather than stretches. Makes zero sense but if you need a good lesson in designer shoe shopping, see the woman who works at the Louboutin boutique inside Saks 5^th. She’s helped me a ton (post patent purchase).
Mr Express stretched the living daylight out of those puppies and they’re PERFECT! They were a 39 and now they fit like a 40. A patent leather 40: P
He also put a grippy red sole on the bottom — I’d recommend it since the original soles on louboutins are so delicate. (Any dude reading this definitely has the words «girls are crazy» going through his head. For your info, men, we are refined beings who appreciate fine art).
Total cost: $ 45
2) Ferragamo lamb skin handbag
I wish I had taken a before and after photo.
He doctored my stained bag back to full health!
I had let it sit next to a black leather bag overnight and what I discovered in the morning was a black smear across the baby pink front of the ferragamo. Brand new Ferragamo I might add.
He had a look at it, buffed it down (yeah I cringed) but then finished it with a custom color spray to match the rest of the bag exactly!
You honestly can’t tell.
Thank you Cobbler Express!
I will definitely be returning for any future leather repairs!

I brought 2 boots with me from dallas on a trip out here and just so happened to think maybe I should get the bottoms redone. Not only were the work (1 on a pair of cowboy boots and another on a pair of frye’s) expedited for me, they are sooooo phenomenal! Beyond impressed with their work! Thank you Edward! I’m even telling my dallas friends about you!

Really fast service. I dropped in for a heel replacement (rubber heel) and it took 10 minutes all-​in. Cost of $ 25, which I thought was pretty reasonable for the speed and quality.
The location is within an office building in case you get confused.

My new Kate Spade purse strap was on the verge of breaking. Took it here on lunch break… he fixed it within 10minutes and its like new! Amazing service!

I always bring my brand spanking new luxury shoes for protection, as well as my shoes that have already taken a beating. Staff is courteous, fast and they do a superb job.
You pay for value, longevity and excellent service.

Still loving! The owner/​main guy is super nice. He stretched my Tribtoo YSL patent leather nude platforms… In happy to say my pinky toe now has room to breathe. My pinky toe says thank you Cobble Express. $ 10 to stretch. I had the toe box widened.

These guys are really good. I had a pair of Lacoste shoes that I got on one of my trips, the shoes got scuffed up really badly and I heard great reviews about this place. I took my shoes and they told me «Don’t worry boss» and they were absolutely right.
I picked up my shoes in about a week and they were in perfect condition. Thanks Maurice for helping me out.

«Don’t worry Boss»
Whenever I hear the Cobbler utter those words I know that my shoes are in good hands. The service here is top notch. I came here in a rush and needed my Gucci shoes completely resoled for a special occasion and they did an amazing job. They resoled my shoes in about 2 hours where other places would take days. They were fast, considerate, and efficient. The guys here really know how to provide top notch customer service and a high quality product at an affordable price ($ 60)
My feet feel happier than ever I will continue to come back!!!
