Great experience getting two pairs of Birkenstocks resoled. Much more cost effective and environmentally friendly than buying new pairs. Dean was easy to communicate with and got them fixed in a day. Very affordable, quick, and quality service. Will definitely be back!

The straps on my work bag fell apart- took it to Mid City Repair and he fastened the straps to the leather, better and more durable than new!! Highly recommend- fast and friendly service.

"Great work, low prices, insanely fast service, and a very nice guy." "Very nice guy! Did great work, was very affordable, and got my shoes back to me very quickly. Definitely recommend!" "He keeps his prices down with cash & checks only." "He did an excellent job and I was so surprised how fast the turnaround time was! Highly recommend!!!" "Dean does all sorts of repairs on leather goods-shoes, boots, clothes, belts, purses, etc. Can dye/color items. Reasonably priced too." Great shoe repair, extends the life of shoes, re-soling, put lifts/buildup on shoes (according to orthopedist's instructions, too), boot, luggage, hand bags, heavy zippers, water proofs boots & more! Fast, expert, quick turn around, inexpensive, honest, kind, caring. We're lucky to have him. Perimeter Diabetic Footwear Inc. offers shoes that are made specifically for diabetic individuals in mind. Also there are no out of pocket costs when ordering these many styled, attractive shoes, if you are a medicare recipient (one is allowed one shoe per year by Medicare). Dean's Dad started the business in 1960. Was for many years at the Clock Tower; now at 13 Central Ave, Cortland, NY 13045. Best to call ahead (607) 345-0729 * (607) 753-3921 to confirm opening, or by chance (often ca 11 AM -- ca 4 PM). He's re-soled our shoes, boots, luggage zippers, orthopedic lifts, water proofed boots, and more since 1979! Can't be beat!

I brought a heavy duty jumpsuit (think Carhart type) to this shop just before closing time on Saturday for a new zipper. The shop keeper said it would be done by the end of next week, but called me on Monday...he had it done already! I was very happy with the service here and would definitely return to this small business owner and support our local shops!

Friendly, and knowledgeable. Stretched out a pair of work boots for me. Way less expensive than I thought it would be. Thank you!!!

So grateful for the quick emergency service. My shoes were in need of quick repair after the heel cushion broke off while traveling yesterday. I drove for nearly 40 minutes one way because of the positive Yelp reviews to get my shoes fixed before more travels and interviews next week. They agreed to fix them on the spot. 15 minutes and $12 later I had working shoes and can conduct the work needed next week! Happy Dance- literally! Thank you to the wonderful couple who own this shoe repair shop!
