Shukey Services

4.2(209)✓ Google-verified

Most reviewers describe fast, careful shoe and bag repair with friendly staff. Many praise the workmanship on restorations and say the shop got them out of a jam when other places said no. The record is not uniform. One reviewer paid a large sum for resoling and recolouring, then had to return for the glue to be redone, and said the owner turned aggressive. Another single-visit complaint describes repeat repairs that failed. Shukey suits simpler jobs and restorations well, but a few customers felt let down on bigger, pricier work.
