Manuel’s Shoe Repair

The boss there is arrogant, neither friendly nor patient at all. He told me that my shoes were not repairable. But later on I went to another store, they helped me deal with the problem. Highly not recommended.

Awesome service, awesome product! I highly recommend Manuel! He got my dancing shoes ready JUST in time to NYE! And stayed open a few extra minutes so I could swing by and pick them up! FABULOUS customer service! I found my new shoe place for sure!

This place is a rip off dont waste your time and money. 28 dollars for new heels way too high

I have been coming to this place for the past year and have never encountered any problems; solid quality, fast and friendly service! Highly recommend!

Excellent!!! My shoe ripped and he was able to fix it the same day. Great service and highly recommend him.

This place is a money saver! Quick, easy, and affordable shoe repair for my favorite shoes!

Friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Quality work. Quick turnaround — I brought the shoes in at 9:30 and picked them up at 3:30. I’m so glad I found this place. I will definitely be back!

Have had two pairs of shoes repaired here so far. Owner is sweet, prices are great, and work is always high quality and done on time.

I took my monk straps to get re-​heeled at the beginning of the week, and the first thing he asked me was, «When do you want them?»
Manuel got it done by the next day! He handed them back to me and exclaimed, «Now you’re ready to go dancing again!»
I highly recommend his work. Great service!

Manuel is the real deal. I consider him the doctor of shoes. My sole came off several times and the previous shoe repair couldn’t fix it right so came to Manuel. He diagnosed the issue and gave a probability for success and a prognosis for future issues. He’s honest and passionate about what he does. He even gave me some advice about shoes in general to prevent me from purchasing shoes that will have the same issue. Oh and he charged half of what the other repair guy charged! He is fair honest and loves his unique craft. If you want quality knowledgeable service, see Manuel. Don’t bother going anywhere else.

I’ve gotten a pair of really comfy Cole Haan heels and a pair of knee high leather boots repaired by Manuel so far. Both were in pretty terrible shape, but he did a great job. Definitely going to start getting shoes repaired instead of throwing them out now.

I went to Manuel to have some glue put down. The insole was coming up. The dress shoes have the back insole which comes to about halfway down the shoe. The end of the back insole was coming up (about where the arch of the foot is). Because of this issue, the pair of shoes was slightly discounted at purchase. For $ 8, I expected the glue to be put down professionally and for the shoes to look like new. When I took the shoes out of the repair shop I already noticed drops of glue on the insole (visible and about where my heel goes). Took a few minutes of scraping and rubbing, but I got that off. After wearing the shoes, I then discovered that Manuel left glue on the side (inside) and on the bottom insole. Not just a few drops either. Figured that out after wearing and removing the shoes a couple times. Had to spend time cleaning that up too.

I have had three pairs of Teva sandals since I was 21. The first two lasted 7 years each, but my third only made it to year 4. The right sandal leather strap that holds the back part of the foot broke — tore away from the right side of the sandal and I was sad because it is the fall and sandal availability is low in stores.
I had seen this guy’s shop many times before in this mini-​mall, and after checking Unilocal decided it was time to put him to work. I wasn’t disappointed. He fixed my sandals in a day for like ¹⁄₈ the price i paid for the sandals, which I figured I’ve to spend again on new ones. Instead of having to throw away otherwise perfectly fine sandals, I’ve got my broken-​in, but not too worn sandals back and i love it.
Manuel took a look at my other sandal (the left one) and saw that it was starting to fray in the same way, and reinforced it in a few minutes for a few bucks. My wife’s sandal also broke soon thereafter, in the same way as mine, and i took it to him and again bam, fixed, fast and cheap.
Manuel is friendly and professional. This guy is just awesome. If I ever have more shoes that need fixed, I’m definitely coming back here.

A few weeks into moving to California, the heel of my favorite pair of boots came off. I was major sad faced. I would have pouted longer if I hadn’t hopped on to Unilocal and found this wonderful cobbler! Super friendly and affordable, Manuel gets the job done beautifully and I haven’t had to complain or go back with the same shoe in the past year I’ve been living in California. And yes, I have gone back with several other pairs of shoes that needed repairing, as well as referring friends and co-​workers to him.
The only downer is that he only accepts cash and checks, but since you don’t have to pay until you pick-​up, it wasn’t really much of an issue.

I needed a pair of heels reheeled really badly. I had worn the pair to the point where the plastic under the heel was actually fully exposed. Manuel offered to fix it within the hour and did it for a very reasonable price ($ 13.95 for the pair). The shoes came back in much better shape. He reheeled and polished it so it looks almost new!
This place only accepts cash and checks.

Manuel is the best! Super friendly, funny and extremely competent.
He repaired a pair of leather sandals for me and I couldn’t even tell they were repaired afterwards. Great craftsmanship and quality.
He turns things around super fast and always with a smile.
This is the kind of small business you love to support. Go here if you have any issues with your shoes, boots or sandals. Manuel is your guy!

I went to see Manuel to get my favorite pair of heels fixed. My Chinese laundry heels were in desperate need of attention. I had worn through the soles of both shoes and wasn’t sure if they were fixable. Brought them into Manuel and he had 2 options. He could glue on a new sole for 28.95 or replace the sole with a new leather one for 32.95. I chose the leather soles since I thought they’d last longer. I picked up my shoes and they came back looking brand new! I’ve worn them for a weekend of dancing and also to work and they seem to be holding very well. I will definitely go to Manuel again for all my shoe repair needs!

Ever since I took my first pair of shoes, I’ve been going back. I’ve been taking shoes out of the closet. I’ve had heels redone, boots buffed, leather laces re-​attached and each time the prices have been very reasonable, the customer service is fabulous and friendly, and it’s like I get brand new shoes each time!!!

He is friendly, direct. He repaired the lining of my shoes for $ 20, covering them with real leather, so I think a reasonable price. He polished them as well. He is sometimes there late, after the hours listed. I also had him estimate repairing the handles of my tote bag, which would be $ 10 each (while replacing pleather with leather), $ 40 total, which was too much for me so I did not have him repair it. Next time I have shoes that need repairing i’ll definitely return!
