Busters Shoe Repair

Robert, who runs this place, is awesome. Not just excellent at his work, but simply a terrific person. I enjoy giving him my business both based on the quality of his work and his fine personality.
He’s brought back several pairs of shoes for me from seemingly unsalvageable disrepair to nearly brand new. He’s repaired straps on sandals for my wife like you’d never know they were busted. And he even just cleaned some mold off her boots and purse that we thought had been ruined.
Quality work, from a good guy, and a good price — what more could you want. Thanks so much Robert.

I’ve been bringing my shoes to Robert for years. Robert and staff are very friendly and extremely knowledgable. I recently brought in my orthotics for repair. Robert was was able to fix and customize them better than new. As a barber, I’m on my feet all day the insoles are so comfortable I can stand without my feet feeling any discomfort.

Awesome service! Not only super friendly, but Buster always makes my old shoes look like new, and my new shoes even better! Top quality work, my highest recommendation!

Took in a pair of sandals to get new zipper sliders and the thin sole protector. The zippers were $ 15 a piece, the sole was $ 35 on initial quote (he charged me $ 40). I also had him make me 2 keys, $ 3/​each and one doesn’t work. He’s really expensive, I may take my designer shoes there but nothing else. At $ 70, I was half way to a new pair of sandals.

I walked in with the sandal that my dog had destroyed in her anger and anxiety (Bad dog! Lucky you are cute) and I walked out with the sandal that looked like new. Magic! Well, not really — just good repair work, but I am very happy to have the sandal back in use. One star subtracted since the shoe wasn’t ready when originally promised, but still good work and I still will take my shoe/​leather repair work to this place. Thank you!

Thank you for your help. I had an odd request. The medicine ball at our gym started to come apart and needed to be stitched up. They were willing to hand stitch it for us… it was a random request but they did it and looks sturdy.

I walked in at 11 am and my broken show was repaired by 4pm. The guys who work here are kind and professional. Plus $ 8 is a decent price!
I highly recommend.

I took in a pair of boots from Forever 21 that had completey broken in half soles and they were able to completely fix them. Put on brand new/​real soles and they are better than new. It cost a bit more than i would have liked, but it was worth it to fix my favorite boots.

Robert took his time fixing two pairs of incredible distressed Frye boots. I ride moto in them, and he gave them the TLC they needed to look good as new with solid soles and conditioned leather. He’s a miracle worker. Not cheap, but great quality. Thanks Robert!

Roberto is spot on and did the job– I have rare, expensive shoes and he took care of it.

I walked in to have keys made and Robert was incredibly helpful. He is obviously an expert at his craft and takes great pride in getting the job done right. I’ll definitely be coming to Busters for all future shoe or luggage repair (and keys if the need arises). This is exactly the type of small local business I want to support.

I have been going to Buster’s for years. He continues a family tradition of skilled leather repair, integrity and pride in high quality work that is rare these days. I have absolute trust in his advice and the excellence of his work.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I can’t speak highly enough about this Shoe Repair store. It’s so nice to finally find somewhere I feel comfortable taking my shoes to. I invest in my shoes so they will last a lifetime, and Buster’s is the ONLY place I trust with my shoes. Their quality of work is unmistakably the best out there. No… it’s not cheap… but you can tell in the quality of the work that your shoes will last even longer than you imagined and they will fix anything another shoe repair messed up on! I brought a pair of gold leather Christian Louboutin’s, that had been butchered by another shoe repair store. Not only did they fix the other place’s poor job, they completely reworked my shoes and they look brand new! When spending that much money on shoes, you only want the best. The gold leather color match is incredible, the red rubber soles they put on are carefully worked with precision and they take the time to make sure it’s done right. I have brought in boots, Valentino’s, purses for zippers to be fixed, etc. I am extremely particular, and I truly mean it when I say that I won’t take my stuff anywhere else. Great work!!!

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
I ran across Robert who works at Busters by chance to work on my husbands prada heels. It turned into a 2 year love affair! After seeing the care, promptness, and common neighborhood decency in dealing with a few pair of shoes of my partners. I threw my lot in with a Tory Burch 2008 tote that had seen better days. Robert not only ordered REAL leather to replace the pleather but cleaned her to perfection. Upon seeing such lovely results I brought a big time JOB to Robert with a 2002 Fendi Purse which had the leather shredded from age. One month later BAM a NEW clutch that hasn’t seen day light in years! Very trustworthy and honest work. Only caveat, cash only, but one I got used to over the years! Yay for Mom & Pop Biz!

Highly recommended. I’ve taken many worn and torn shoes/​bags here over the years and have been impressed each time. They make them like new again, truly great work.

Great quality work. Not cheap but very well done repair work!

Buster bas been at this location for 7 yrs and provided the same smiling and attentive service he has always offered. He cares for your shoes as if they were his own. His prices are reasonable and he has your shoes, boots, etc ready when he says they’ll be ready.

Incredibly nice and helpful.
I needed another hole in my belt and they didn’t even hesitate. Took care of it right then and there and were happy to help, and even though they declined to charge me and I could see they were busy, the guy waited to make sure the hole was where I needed it.

Excellent job with replacing the zipper on my favorite pair of boots!
Zippers are not easy and I didn’t want to risk getting a cheap job done, so based on the good reviews I decided to try them out. Very happy I did, Robert is awesome to work with. Besides the zipper they replaced the heel and polished them up to look brand new again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND these guys, they don’t do cheap work like so many other shoe places do!!!

I have gone to Buster’s Shoe Repair numerous times in the last 2 years — primarily for shoe & leather repair, adjustments and maintenance (all excellent work) but the last work they did on my 2 handbags (both were very expensive Italian brands) is AMAZING.
One white bag has lost its shape and the other (also white) shoulder bag has turned grey, with numerous black scratches. Joe took them both in and returned the first bag re-​lined/​reshaped and looking brand new and the other bag looking waaaay better than I thought possible.
Both bags cost $ 100++ to fix — but in my case it’s worth it as the bags were expensive to begin with and I consider them investments. Plus the quality of work Joe put in was superb.
This is a cash only establishment with a 50% deposit — although if you are a regular like me he would usually waive the deposit.
I’m so happy I found a reliable place that fixes my leather goods (shoes, bags, jackets) and will recommend Buster’s to anyone.
