Cobblers!

[yellowbentines]

The shoe repairing type. Not car-related in any way but thought I'd run this past the font of knowledge that is Pistonheads!

In short I wear nice smart shoes to work, and as (to me anyway) they cost a lot of money I like to keep them looking smart and nice and also like to get more than a couple of months wear out of the leather soles and heels. Does anyone know of any good cobblers in the Glasgow area (NOT Timpsons) that can re-sole/re-heel shoes without destroying the leather upper?

I know all you wealthy Audi R8 and 911 drivers probably just throw your shoes out and head to Prada for a new pair each month but there must be some tightwads like me out there

Be sure to get a full sole fitted, nothing ruins a shoe like those economy half soles IMHO

Yes good chap, that would be splendid. I however shall be tied up with offical engagements today so shall have my doorman Reginald show Bertie to the shoe room

Jolly good old boy, I shall send the car round. Feel free to beat him if his work is unsatisfactory. Toodle pip.
