Plano Shoe Repair

Back when I lived in CA, my mom used to have a long-​time cobbler she’d take our shoes to for repairs. Now that I’m in TX, I was in search of a good and affordable one to mostly just replace the small rubber point of high heels that wears off with use. Reviews were good for this shop and so I dropped off two pairs of high heels for repair. The charge was way less than I expected, so that was exciting! :) They were ready in two days and a job well done. It’s a small shop in a shopping center to the left of Walmart.

Plano Shoe Repair is the Best of the Best! Even took a favorite pair of Ferragamo’s that were totally worn out but they fixed them perfectly. Look just like new. I love this shop!

Great and only shoe place I’ve ever been. Have been a few time.
The old guy is a straight douche just FYI. The younger gentlemen and the lady are fantastic.

Best shoe repair place i have ever used, period! This is old school quality and old school customer service. I have brought at least 15 pairs of cowboy boots in this shop for everything from minor work, such as, add taps to the heels and full replaced resole. Recently brought in two pair of cowboy boots. One pair the heel was too high for me, so they lowered the heel — not an easy job, you have to make sure that the heel height will match the arch on cowboy boots — well they did a GREAT job! Now they are the second most comfortable pair I own. The other pair i had a complete resole done. From a leather sole to a crêpe sole. Wow, they are now the most comfortable pair of shoes I own. BTW both were done i think a day and a half EARLY. And at a fair price!
I really cannot say enough about the quality and service. I have always been treated very well in this shop.
I have been wearing cowboy boots, combat boots and high end dress shoes my entire life. I buy quality shoes and boots that can be repaired and last years and years. I have never seen a better cobbler!

Great service. Ready before I needed it. I got a nice pair of boots resoled, reheeled, and stitched up. Very pleased!

these people are nice until something goes wrong. i had to go back a third time for them to properly afix a heel. extremly combative and rude. i’m, by nature, a very mild mannered and calm person. so there was no provocation. as soon as i told the front desk my issue, the older gentleman in the back came out with lots to say. and even expected i pay them a second time for a heel that was not properly installed. long story short, on the third time it worked. to this day the heels have not snaped off. so why not do the right job the frist time «plano shoe repair»? again, they are extremly nice. until something goes wrong. not a business i want to depend on.

I had a pair of shoes that were missing a button. A non-​functional button that looks as though they hold on straps… but they don’t…the straps are non-​functional also. the shoe would work without the button or straps. But I like the buttons.
I took these shoes to try and get them repaired and was instructed to go to a craft store because they didn’t have the button. I didn’t expect them to have the button but I would have been willing to pay to have all buttons replaced. I would have paid and waited for the button and shoes if they ordered the button or similar, waited for it to arrive, and fixed the shoe. I guess I expected better customer service. If you specialize in shoe repair, do they maybe have a good vendor that specializes in materials to fix shoes? I guess not. The service was really offputting. It came across almost as if they thought I should have known better. Won’t be back.

I’ve only been here once but the owner seems to have serious experience. The shop has been open for about 14 years I believe. Small and simple, the owner isn’t the most friendliest of owners. He asks what you want and gives you a no muss no fuss answer. I brought in some vintage Ferragamo shoes and asked to get the bottom of the heels fixed. He took a look at it and then said how long it will take and when to pick it up. I had to ask for the price and it was $ 15 to get that fixed along with re glueing the insides of the shoe. The shoes look great. I don’t know the level of complexities he can fix but I’m sure he’s at least worth coming for the minor problems.

Omg I love supporting small businesses but they are so damn rude here either they have no manners or they actually think it’s ok to talk to you like your stupid I’ll be going else where

There is a reason Plano Shoe Repair has nothing but 5 star reviews and that is because they are the best at what they do. The gentleman George I believe is his name, is the owner. George repairs shoes with old world craftsmanship. I realize this is America and sadly we are an instant gratification, throw it away if it’s broken society but I happen to be a shoeaholic and I try desperately to maintain what I already own. Some of my shoes are very expensive and some are at the opposite end of the spectrum and are very inexpensive but CUTE.
With George’s skill, George was able to salvage about 10 pairs of super cute silk wedges whose heels had worn off of their cork base. George basically performed surgery and cut a heel from a rubber sole and attached it to the cork base. In fact, George’s repaired heels have already lasted longer than the inferior heels that were on the shoes originally. The original heels were worn off after approximately 4 wearings, walking on pavement. Enter George to the rescue. He was also able to repair an elastic that had snapped in the heel strap. Now some may say this is too much to invest in a simple pair of silk wedges but they are my favorite Summer shoes and I have the same style in multiple colors.
George and his son are also very pleasant. Their attitude and skill tells me they appreciate my business. This is the type of merchant I prefer to patronize. So if you have a favorite pair of shoes that have seen better days, please take them to George at Plano Shoe Repair. Who knows, maybe your shoes’ best days may be ahead of them with help from George.

I would recommend this store to anyone needing their cowboy boots polished and repaired. It’s a 1^st class place.

I have been taking shoes here for years and I can’t say enough good things! I don’t live anywhere near but the drive is worth it for me. Every time I take something there, it looks brand new when I pick it up. They especially do a great job with boots — cowboy and regular. The prices are also very reasonable and the man who works there is very nice.

The owner is an Old World craftsman; excellent work on my sandals, ready when promised at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended !

I absolutely love this place. Every shoe comes here and comes out better looking than when I bought it. I even have my parents hooked. Very nice owners who are honest, professional and passionate about their trade. I strongly recommend this place and the prices are extremely fair for the quality received.

Best shoe repairman in Plano! Very reasonable, and is very efficent. I have taken everything to him, and all shoes have been repaired… even heels that have completly broken off. Hours are great too.

Tried this place for the first time. My mom’s favorite boots were perfectly repaired! She loved them! My father’s boots look amazing. The owner does amazing work. The prices are reasonable! I will definitely be back to him for my future shoe repairs. I now don’t have to throw away my expensive or favorite shoes because I have a great shoe repair person!

Been here several times and they did a great job fixing up several pairs of shoes and making suggestions on new insoles, etc.
My items were ready on time as promised… Great service.

Nooo, won’t be back here. Took a brand new pair of sandals in for minor repair. Couldn’t understand him and he had no interest in even looking at my shoes. Another shoe repair a mile away repaired my last pair of these for $ 4 (yes I tipped him more than that). Fixed them so well I wore them out and bought another pair. Same issue with these so back to the $ 4 cobbler who is willing to put some elbow grease into his work. Was willing to try this guy out due to reviews here. Must be trolls

These guys are the best I’ve found in the Plano, north Dallas area. Now I don’t have to send my Lucchese boots back to Lucchese! They are that good!
Very fair price and fast service!

I’m with Amanda, highly recommended! Most any cobbler can replace a heel or sole, but these guys do magic! Dropped off a pair of irreplaceable boots last week with leather wrapped heels that were much the worse for wear — hoping they could be salvaged so they could be worn again… Picked them up today and they look out-​of-​the-​box brand new — I couldn’t be more pleased!
