I'd been hanging on to a pair of pull-on leather riding boots for years, though they did not fit my calves. I tried stretching them myself at home to no success, and tried another shoe shop (also with no great success, though. The shoe shop I visited most recently (which has very good service and does great work) recommended George's, since I thought I'd probably have to have some elastic inserts sewed into the boots so I could wear them. Before cutting into the boots and sewing in a stretchy expansion, George's Shoes & Repair figured they'd give stretching the leather another try. I'm not sure what magic they used, but it worked! I now have boots that fit, and didn't have to compromise on cutting the leather or adding a stretchy bit of elastic. I tried the boots on a few times, and the staff worked with me until they were stretched to fit. I'm so pleased with the service--the George family's commitment to providing helpful advice and presenting customers with several options, quick turnaround times (given that they are really busy!), and reasonable prices. If you need a good cobbler, I don't know if you could find anyone better!

I wish I could give more stars than 5! My family began bringing shoes to George's in the mid-late 60s (when my parents moved to St. Paul). I recall as a very small child going into the store when it was in Har Mar Mall (I think? I was very young...). Now I'm bringing *my* child in with me. The entire staff is very knowledgeable and very friendly. The repair work is outstanding and the prices are reasonable. Ron has a sublime talent for understanding what needs to be done on custom work. I am an entertainer at renaissance festivals and wear specialized boots. Ron has cared for those boots for many many years, and has even altered another company's hand-made boots to the point that the original company was arguing with me that the work on the boots was original to them. I have also brought leather jackets in for repair and as expected the work is outstanding and the prices are quite reasonable. I would never bring my shoe repair/other leather care needs anywhere else and I always recommend George's to my friends! Thanks Ron, family, and crew, you guys are amazing!

Excellent shoe repair shop! If it's leather and needs fixing &/or cleaning George's got ya covered. Need a unusual color of shoe polish or leather cleaner & conditioner? They got it. And I solved my winter salt stains on my nice shoes. YESSSSS.

I am so amazed how great they fix my two pair of boots, from really really bad looking, now they look brand new. Thank you for doing this, I really appreciate it and you just don’t know how happy I am to see them like this, those are my favorite boots. Thank you and thank you so much. You are the best.

I've had a couple pairs of dress shoes fixed up here and have been helped by a different very attractive woman each time. it's nuts. The shoe work is quality as well.
