Bring In Your Soles

We offer a range of solutions to repair all manner of damage*, along with many maintenance products for your good shoes! Chris Tovar, owner and cobbler, has over 35+ years of expertise in the industry and is a sole miracle worker. From re-soling, re-heeling, re-gluing, shining, stitching, patching, there’s very little that we can’t do to put it back together. Our seamstresses can fix bags, jackets, zippers, velcro, elastic, and much more.* The question isn’t what we can fix, but what can’t we fix!

All work on bottom of shoes includes a shine unless you specify otherwise! We’ll make them as close to new as possible.

*not every item can be saved, as much as it pains to say

Yes, we were formerly Roger’s Shoe Repair. Chris Tovar, who had been the cobbler for 5+ years, bought the business in June of 2025. So we’re the same work you know and love with a fresh coat of paint and a new LLC. Learn more on the About Us page!

“They don’t make things the way they used to” could not be more true now than ever. Older, well-made shoes are absolutely worth reviving, the modern replacement would be half the quality. Leather is fantastic in that until it hits the point of no return and starts to crumble, leather can almost always be revived. The bottoms of your shoes are the most replaceable part of the whole shoe, and why wouldn’t you want new shoes that are already broken in? Not to mention doing your part to keep the landfills as empty as possible!

Kind, collaborative, honest, and straightforward. As much as we want your business, we do abide by the Macy’s method: we will help however we can, even if that’s sending you elsewhere for a cheaper DIY solution, a service we cannot provide, or letting you know the repair isn’t worth your money on the damage in question. We want you to be happy and pleased with our work, and

Soles split? Rivet popped? PLEASE do NOT use super glue, hot glue, epoxy, or Shoe Goo! They can make a fix significantly harder (if not impossible) for us to accomplish. Bring it right to us, and we’ll take a peek. We can steer you in the direction of the best solution, whether that’s us fixing it for you or a DIY project.
