Please help!! I have a pair of black suede stiletto pumps that I wore to a party and got the heel stuck in an AIR VENT ON THE FLOOR!! I ended up tearing the suede covering the hell when I had to pull the shoe out :sad: I was sooo devastated. Does anyone know any good shoe cobblers in the DC area where I can take my shoe so they can glue the suede back together?!

I go to Old Town Shoe and Luggage Repair in Old Town Alexandria VA--Ferragamo boutique sends their shoes there for repairs...

And Corrective Shoe Repair in Dupont Circle is pretty good too--I used to go there when I was living in the city =)

Know that I have been getting increasingly more expensive shoes I need to find someone reliable also versus a shop that doesn't even know what Manolo or Louboutin is! I went to one shop where the guy stuck a safety pin through the back of my shoes to attach a ID tag!!!!!!! I was mortified. I'd love to hear of more shops in the area.

Ugh, I had a terrible experience there, its the place on P street right?

:tdown: I tested them out with two pairs of shoes for zipsoles and they got the black material on the shoe itself - a huge spot! So my gold quilted flats had a large black spot, so sloppy. The owner was a complete jerk to me and wouldn't refund my money, they only did a sloppy repair job. Thank god I didn't take Manolos or anything $$ there. I had to do a charge back on my credit card, not because of the cost but because he was such a jerk. Don't take anything nice there.
