What we repair

Five kinds of work, one bench

Resoling and restoration, hand-mixed dye work, handbag rebuilds, boots and luggage. If it is leather and it broke, start here — and if you are not sure it can be saved, bring it in and we will tell you straight.

Why Choose Us

The difference is in the finish

  • Every leather item, one bench

    Shoes, boots, handbags and suitcases are all repaired in the same shop by the same hands — you are not sent to three different specialists to put one wardrobe back together.

  • On Main Street since 2000

    A quarter century in the same Kentlands storefront on Main Street, serving Gaithersburg and the towns around it.

  • Expert, in-house staff

    Nothing is shipped out to a factory. Trained cobblers and leather workers do the work on site.

  • Hard-to-find specialties

    Custom leather dyeing, color matching and designer handbag restoration few shops still offer.
