@freds_shoe_repair put new soles on my favorite leather boots and they are better than new! They are a 3rd generation small business in Illinois and accept mail in show and boot repairs! 🙌🏽 They can repair so many items including purses, bags, shoes, and boots. Just send them some photos and a description of what you need and they can give you options and details of a repair process tailored to your needs. Thanks again Fred Shoe Repair! 👏🏽
