Boot repair in Wellington
Can anyone recommend a boot repairer in the Wellington area?
I don't know if I'd go as far as recommending for any and all repairs because mine was a fairly minor experience, but I've previously (several years ago) taken boots to the shoe repair place underground in the BNZ centre near JB Hi-Fi. At the time, and possibly still, they also sold some kind of unbranded boots so I figured it was as good a gamble as any.
I second Izogi - there is a fella there who stretched my boots a few months ago - he was really good at his job and also cheap! He is still there as far as I know.
"...... taken boots to the shoe repair place underground in the BNZ centre near JB Hi-Fi....."
@izogi and @si-dog are referring to Hurry Up Shoe Repairs.
They have now moved to:
Shop 3, Level 3
Plimmer Towers
Wellington
So not too far away.
My wife uses them for her work shoes (high heels etc) and they always do an exceptional job on them.
I have never used them for tramping boots, but the old guy in there is pretty good.
Check out Lesvos in the Welly Railway Station - 04 472 8430
thanks everyone!
