My cobbler did a pretty kickass job resurrecting my destroyed leather goodies. Some Before and After pics, as proof:
Dr. Cobbler didn’t just fix the strap on my broken Botkier. He reinforced every loose thread on the thing.
He also re-heeled my gnarled Aldo motorcycle boots, like whoa. They’re totally good as new!
The salvation of my Botkier and boots cost me $25 and $35, respectively. So basically, I got a $550 handbag and a $120 pair of shoes for the bargain price of $60.
It just doesn’t get much better than that.

ok, please don’t hate me for asking this question so late in the game– i’ve never bought a pair of aldos, but the girls i know swear by them (but last time i heard this was a couple of years ago) because they fix up wear and tear on heels and junk for free- some kind of lifetime warranty or something? is this some kind of urban myth?
ok the only google result i’m finding on point is this: http://www.whatsthediff.com/2007/10/these-shoes-wer.html
i duno what to tell you love…
No, it don’t. I just had a handbag re-handled last week – the finish on the edge was peeling off in the most unsightly way. New handle: $40. SWEET.
Any chance you’d tell us the name of your cobbler? I’m looking for a new one!
