I’m so happy with my cleaned up boots! I wish I had taken a before picture to demonstrate how much better they look, basically like new. And much, much cheaper than buying a new pair.
Hong’s did a great job on my favorite boots. Resoled them with good traction, there were tears before at the bottom of the soles and water was getting in. Easy drop off- he knew just what to do- and easy pick up. I highly reccomend. I’ll be back.
Since the pandemic I haven’t needed any shoes repaired or buffed. While getting organized, I came across a pair of shoes that I absolutely loved. They have to be 10 years old. You can’t find gems like this anymore. I only worn them in the office but they needed a little TLC. Manuel assured me he’d do his best to bring them back to life. Three weeks later (forgot about them 🙃) I picked them up and they looked amazing. New sole, leather rehydrated and ready to be worn again. He knows shoes. Fine craftsmanship.
