Great shop & excellent service. My Doc Martin boots are so comfortable & have held up well for a long time...then the zipper went kaput. Mike's did an excellent repair job & the boots are good as new!
My very necessary clogs were falling apart, and even though the Shoemaker could not fix them on the spot and would have charged me $38 to get them back to me in two days I needed a faster fix! So he mentioned that the Value hardware store across the street sells shoe glue... and for that suggestion, I am forever grateful!!!! that did the trick, and it would never have occurred to me had he not suggested it to me! One great big five star thank you to him (whether his name is mike or something else? I forgot to ask.)
Mike's Shoe Repair is a true treasure in Evanston. The team has revitalized my favorite shoes, added new soles to consignment-store finds, and even worked miracles on handbags needing a fresh color palette. I especially appreciate their honesty--sometimes they'll tell me when a pair is beyond saving, which shows how much they value quality over a quick sale. With wonderful service, heart, and old-world craftsmanship, this shop keeps me coming back again and again.
