Italian Cobbler

Horrible...Avoid! Ruined my leather coat, and refused to admit the problem that they created. I will never go to their shop again! I never got to see who does the repair work, just the girl at the front desk who claims that the repair person can do things, which he obviously can't, all for the name of getting to charge clients! more

I love the Italian Cobbler. I took 2 purses to him this summer. One was a Cole Haan that had worn spots on the bottom where the leather color had worn away. They touched up these spots with leather paint that matched the original color perfectly. You would never be able to find the repaired spots that's how well they did the color matching. The other purse was a Coach that had dirty valchetta leather trim. They cleaned up the leather trim as well as the whole purse. It looked like new when I picked it up. I have also taken in a pair of my husband's shoes that needed to be re-soled. Needless to say, they looked like new also when I picked them up. I would highly recommend the Italian Cobbler! more

The Italian Cobbler is wonderful. Not only does he do professional work, he?s very accommodating. I live in Virginia and I was visiting my mother in Westlake. My husband?s old, but favorite sandals needed an emergency repair. The first place I went told me it would take a week. On the way back to the hotel, I passed the Italian Cobbler and stopped in. I showed him the sandal and he said, ?no problem, I?ll have them tomorrow afternoon.? He did, that was six months ago and my husband is still wearing the sandals. Two weeks ago, I was visiting again. I have an old photograph album with many family pictures. It has a wooden cover and the pages are secured by two leather ties. One had broken and the pages were falling out. I had attempted to get someone to repair the album here in Virginia, but was unsuccessful. As I was driving down Clague Road, I remembered the Italian Cobbler. I stopped in and asked if he could replace the broken leather tie. Again, no problem. The next day I picked up the album with two new ties. I put the pages in the album and tied them in. Just like new. He had even cut the ends at an angle like the original ties and matched the width and color of the leather. His prices are reasonable and his service is prompt. If I lived in the area, he would definitely get all my shoe, handbag and luggage repair business. Pros: Thumbs up. Service and Quality more
