Rekaris Shoes

Friendly, honest, efficient customer service. They take pride in their work, wanting to do the best job and what’s right for the customer rather than just fixing your shoes up so they just look OK and last for a while. They often go the extra yards to help out.
Well priced too — great value for money.

I happen to walk like a drunk duck (so says my husband) and I invariably ruin my new shoes within a month by dragging my heels and walking on the outsides of my feet.
Thank goodness for the blokes at Rekaris shoes, who’ve salvaged everything from the heels on a pair of vegan suede cowboy boots to the soles of of my multi-​coloured Brazilian sandals.
Prices are reasonable and service is polite and good humoured. It’s a bit out of the way for me so I recently tried a shoe repair place in my neighbourhood rather than take the train to the CBD. I haven’t gotten the shoes back yet so can’t testify to the quality of the repairs but they were way more expensive then Rekaris.
If only I could learn to walk like a normal human being… Until then there’s always Rekaris!

Everyone needs a good shoe repair joint, and mine is Rekaris. They have fixed my boots when they’ve struggled a bit after a wet weekend, and mended my suede heels after a drunken fall — all for a reasonable price.
The thing I love the most about Rekaris is the passion they have for shoes. When I brought in those tainted suede heels, the gent behind the counter gave them a once over, shook his head and said; «Jackie… what did you do to these?!» He promised to do what he could considering the damage. The outcome? Good as new!
Rekaris is located in the handy location of City Central, perfect if you work in the city. So check them out next time you want to freshen up your favourite pair of shoes.
