Davis Shoe Shop & Pedorthic

Davis Shoe Shop & Pedorthic is a local shoe repair shop and is the only local shop that repairs/resoles climbing shoes. They get a lot of business so you may have to wait a week or so, but they are very friendly and personable.

As an aside, the resident dog is named Flower. She's an American foxhound, and patrons of the shop sometimes come in just to visit her.

They have also done great work on my dancing shoe straps. Give them at least 5 days to do stuff, since they are always jam packed with business. It is worth the wait! Oh, and their customer serivce skills are wonderful. —lemurific

2008-01-16 23:44:55   CLIMBER'S NOTE (Edit): If you choose to resole your climbing shoes here, expect: 1) Compulsory toe box re-randing (add'l $14) regardless of rand condition, 2) delamination of new AND original rands immediately following resole job, 3) work not ready on time 4) slow/indifferent customer service. This is based on 9 pairs (4 personal and 5 friends') over five years.

Although, I have never had any delays in service, I can see how this could happen. They have so much business, but are still a "mom and pop" place. I am happy to wait a little more time for their service. —lemurific

2008-10-31 15:18:51   I got a buckle replaced on my boot for $10.50. They did it in two minutes. Great service I am definitely going back there again. —CarmenCastillo

2009-11-18 23:15:33   I had three pairs of shoes badly in need of repair. One pair of pumps were on death's bed with a heavily warn sole and heels that badly needed capping, another pair that needed heel capping, and a pair of boots where the heel had fallen off. I took them in, and a week later, I can't believe my eyes. My shoes look good as new, I was really impressed.

Flower (the dog) came out to meet me which was a plus. It took about a week for them to do the job, but I will definitely be coming back again and again. Great work! —katiafuchs
