Dago’s Boots

I took my old boots in for some servicing. He was certainly nice enough but sure gave me a run around about when they might be done. When I picked up he hadn’t done what we discussed so I returned another day to pickup. After wearing the boots, within days the soul came unglued! His prices were not cheap for this type of thing to happen. I was very disappointed :(
Lesson learned… shoes are important and my favorite boots deserve to have the tlc they need and deserve ;)

I wish I had listened to the negative reviews!!! This guy IS SO UNPROFESSIONAL! It took him THREE weeks to NOT fix my boots. I left them off to have the leather fixed, polished and re-​souled. When I went back for the 2^nd time to pick them up he only re-​souled the heels! HE DID NOTHING!!! I can’t believe he runs a business. WASTED MY TIME & MONEY and now i need to bring the SAME boots to a different shoe repair!

Dago is an honest guy! Please go see him! Thanks Dago!

This is the best leather man ever!!! He works miracles and is the most reasonable and fast yet efficient. He has been doing shoes/​leather work in the movie industry for years and I would never go anywhere else!

DO NOT GO HERE! TERRIBLE, INCONSIDERATE AND SELFISH.
This person lied to me. I gave him a week to do the work, for my show, he said he would only need 3 days. When I went to pick them up (the morning of the show) he had never even started on it! He never bothered to call and worst of all, he made no apologies for his lack of follow through. Go somewhere else Dago is not worth your time. When I told him that he could have atleast called me, he got mad and told me that he has more important things to do! TERRIBLE!
THIS IS THE WORST SERVICE
THE LEAST RELIABLE
AND THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE
NEVER AGAIN WILL I GO THERE.
And neither should you.
TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE.
SO BAD IN FACT, I TOLD HIM HE WAS DISRESPECTFUL.

Dago has been making me custom made unique leather products for a number of years. I found him through a meat market I visit that’s in the area. I owe that butcher big time for referring me to Dago! If you are a gadget freak like me and won’t settle for cheap «Made in China» products, Dago is the man to see. Keep in mind it might cost you a little more, but you will end up with a product made with old world craftsmanship that’s rarely found these days in this disposable society. I wish I had the disposable income of some of his Ranchero rock star customers. You really need to see in person the detail of his work — one of kind creations on Cowboy boots, shoes and leather accessories. Dago made me some leather accessories for my new scooter, to complete that black out look. Ostrich, Stingray, Alligator, Oh my! Dago can resole those favorite worn out boots in the back of your closet. Don’t waste your time going to Rodeo Drive or out of the country, when you can save hundreds of dollars (maybe a grand) on those Alligator loafers at Dago’s. The neighborhood is not real pretty, so you might want to leave the Bentley and jewelry at home. Be brave smart shopper! It’s worth the trip. Sales, repairs and custom made old world craftsmanship under one roof. This is one of North Hollywood’s best kept secrets. He might take his time, but that’s ok! You can’t rush greatness. Don’t even think about haggling this artisan high roller! I would schedule an appointment if you are the high maintenance type. Who knows one day I might break that piggy bank for those custom made alligator boots. You only go around one time! I really enjoy visiting his shop from time to time looking at all his unique leather products. It kind of feels like going to a museum.
