The bench

Same prices whether or not we sold you the shoes.

One person, one bench, and a real queue. You get a date when you drop them off rather than a guess.

  1. Full resole and heel

    $95 to $145Two to three weeks

    Depends on construction. Welted is straightforward; stitchdown takes longer.

  2. Heel only

    $38Same week

    The most common job here and the one most people leave too late.

  3. Toe taps

    $22Same week

    Fitted new, they roughly double how long the toe lasts.

  4. Stretching

    $25Three days

    Width, a bunion point, or an instep. There is a limit and we will tell you where it is.

  5. New insoles, moulded

    $60One week

    Not orthotics. If you need orthotics you need a podiatrist and we will say so.

  6. Recrafting, full rebuild

    $210 to $280Six to eight weeks

    New sole, welt, heel, and reshaping on the last. Worth it once, sometimes twice.

  7. Repair on shoes bought elsewhere

    Same pricesSame times

    About half the bench is shoes we did not sell. That is fine and always has been.

  8. Assessment, no work

    FreeTen minutes

    Bring them in. Sometimes the answer is that they are finished, and we would rather say it.

The heel is the one people leave too late.

Thirty-eight dollars, same week. Left until the heel block wears into the sole, it becomes a full resole at a hundred and fifteen. If you can see the layer under the rubber, bring them in this month.
