Clarence Howell Shoe Repair

Able to perform a repair that required some skill and experience. Expertly performed in a timely manner. Friendly service.

Very friendly and replaced the heels on my favorite boots in just a few hours for under $20. I ran some errands and picked them up later that day. Happy customer! The boots look great.

I recently discovered this business, and I was EXTREMELY pleased. Clarence gives excellent customer service at reasonable prices, and is fast with his work. I had used Mt. Lookout Shoe Repair for years, but grew tired of very grumpy customer service (being treated as an irritant rather than a customer), and them not having work done on time. Clarence is everything they are not in that area, and does excellent work.

great work, ready on time

Excellent work! Exceeded my expectations.

Brought the boots in on a sat. They were ready on Mon. The boots that has the soles replaced looked brand new. They polished them and made the heels look new.

The elastic on the buckles of my work shoes gave out. Clarence's is right down the street from me so when I walked in I met Clarence himself and his shop had several employees working - which gave me the impression that orders were being processed and taken care of at a steady rate. I dropped the shoes off and they were ready in an hour (not a day or so at other places). Clarence's professionalism and personality made the experience even better.

My husband's shoes weren't anything complex but mine were, because they do not have standard soles that can be replaced. They have rubber soles that are sewn to the leather top and over the weekend, during a downpour, water leaked in through a split seam. Mr. Howell explained that a complete repair might not be possible but he would do the best he could be gluing together the seam. But what he did was to put in a piece of leather to strengthen the area and sewed it.
As always, Mr. Howell shined both pairs of shoe so that they look like new.
Mr. Howell is from the old school of shoe repair. He takes immense pride in his work and he told me that he treats each pair of shoes as if it were his own. He works on orthopedic shoes and purse repair. I brought the shoes in on Tuesday and they were ready the next day.
