"Feel free to call them and ask if they can work on your shoes, but don’t misspeak or he will certainly let you know How dumb you are. Or just go somewhere where they aren’t jerks. Up to You!"

"A very friendly shop where you can find top end, quality shoes. They do great work also in shoe repair. Parking is easily found. If you need quality, comfortable , well fitting shoes, you should definitely give this shop a chance to serve you . They have the largest supply of Birkenstock shoe / sandals I've seen."

"Prepaid $120 to have a pair of boots refurbished. Asked them to make the boots look new again and was assured that they would be “like new”. When I came to pick up the boots, they looked the same as they did going in with the exception of some poor stitching, a repaired zipper, and some new soles. Leather didn’t look cleaned nor polished. They seemed to have forgotten about the new insoles and laces. The woman working the counter had a poor attitude and argued with me about insoles and what refurbishing boots actually means to a cobbler. Ridiculous. They apparently now charge customers a 4 percent fee on card payments. Not impressed."

"I have been a happy customer since the 1980s. Recently I needed a pair of dressy black shoes that are comfortable and that would accommodate the arch supports I need. They had to be ordered, and they went out of their way to get them quickly. Arch supports I also always find at Ardesson's; excellent quality and support. Friendly professional service from all who work here. So happy to have found this business, and recommend them to others."

"Yall know I love my mom n pop shops. This place is amazing. So many high-quality items. Wonderful knowledgeable humans. I'll be buying all my footwear and then have it repaired all in the same spot and you should too."
