Formby Shoe Repairs

"My first visit today was more than worth the effort. I couldn't find anyone elsewhere more local prepared to fine stitch repair the torn lacing support on one of a pair of near brand new shoes so I emailed the repair shop and took the train all the way to Formby (from Liverpool). A member of the team had emailed back, after receiving my brief description of the repair needed and photos, to reassure me not only that the job would be done but also there and then on the spot "to save the trouble of going back and forth to Liverpool". Not only was the repair completed immediately, as promised, inbetween visiting customers, it was done very quickly, most efficiently and to my enormous satisfaction. On top of that, the shop owner was so friendly and chatty and charged me at such a low price I felt embarrassed and chose to actually add a little more to what he charged. Formby Shoe Repairs is a special shop. It is, unlike your average Timpsons, obviously equipped specifically to attend to most any type of shoe repair that more standard shoe repair shops will not even attempt. The damage to my shoe was minor but would have meant my not being able to wear the still near new pair in relative comfort and also at the risk of damaging them further. I'm not aware of another repair shop like it on this side of the river and I won't hesitate to go back next time I find myself in need of any type of shoe service. Formby Shoe Repairs is highly, highly recommended! Jimi Jagne Liverpool"
