The Workshop
If you have a favourite pair of shoes that are starting to show signs of wear and tear, don't throw them away just yet. At W.J. French and Son, we have a traditional cobbler on site with over 40 years experience who offers a range of shoe repair services to help you extend the life of your footwear.
From replacing soles and heels to fixing zippers and stitching, our onsite workshop can handle various types of repairs for shoes and leather goods. Visit us today to see how we can help you keep your favourite items looking and feeling like new.
We do not repair designer shoes such as Jimmy Choo, Manalo Blanhnik Gucci etc.
The video below features our Cobbler repairing a long sole and heel on a Goodyear welted shoe.
