REALLY good cobbler in London?

6 replies

I have broken the shanks on a pair of shoes and want to get them mended. Can anyone recommend a really good cobbler in London who might be able to do this? Thank you!

This is a job that Timpsons should be able to do, even if they need to send them away for specialist repair.

I never thought of timpsons!

they are flamenco shoes and the shanks break after about 6 months, which is a pain when the rest of the shoe still has some life in it. a good pair costs about £150, so it's worth trying to get them repaired.

Try City Cobblers on City Road 020 7251 8658 Repaired some heels that a couple of other shoe repairers had shaken their heads at woefully.

Or cobbler's nest Redcross way 020 7357 9394 managed to repair the heel of a wedged shoe with colour matched weird material they were made of.
