Escobar Shoe Service

Seriously, as good as it get! You get the quality of Progressive in Beverly Hills but mych better value and fair pricing

This guy is a miracle worker and a great human being.
He repaired two pairs of heels and thoroughly cleaned a large leather purse for me. All of the items were trashed and he literally made them look brand new. I really wish I had taken Before pictures so I could show the difference.
Very fair prices.

Best in town, Clean work, Invisible repairs, Perfect timeline.
Very good prices.
Amazing experience.

An honest, trustworthy, old-​school craftsman.
Amazing prices and quality of work.
Herber Escobar is the real deal with a genuine heart and sole.
Ha! Sole!
Geddit???
Go see Herber. He’ll keep you on your uppers.

If you (like me) spend a fortune on shoes you have to come here. They make shoes so when they fix a problem they do it right! Its not half assed lazy patchy work. They respect you and most importantly they respect their craft! I took 19 pairs of shoes that i haven’t worn in years as no one could fix them.
Now im running around town in my lovely shoes!

This guy is truly AMAZING. I’ve been in leather business for 12 years and work with Italian manufacturers and I used to take my repairs to Le Artisan. I knew he was ripping me off all along but he kept getting more and more greedy.
I finally cut my relationship and was worried I wouldn’t find someone as good.
Not only Escobar turned out to be a fraction of the cost of the other guy but his work is 100 times better and his service is prompt. I tested him with something dificult and he passed with flying colors.
I AM SOOOOO HAPPY I FOUND THIS GUY.
Go Herber.
GOOD GUY.

I used to go to Pasquale’s, but I started coming here a couple years ago because I felt there was a lack of care and customer service over at Pasquale’s.
Escobar’s is the best in the area. He can make your most worn out delicate designer shoes look practically new. I’ve trusted him with probably a dozen shoes at this point and he’s never disappointed me. He also makes custom dyes as well.
A taco and a smoke shop sit on either side of the store.

The two leather hand straps on a very nice handbag, which I had purchased for my wife, began to deteriorate (crack and fray). They were a unique shape and had a specialized metal eyelet on each end. Escobar Shoe Service completely recreated the straps, at a reasonable price; and now, her beautiful/​elegant bag looks just like new again!
At the same time, I left a pair of my wife’s favorite (comfort) pumps for complete servicing – sole, heels, new interior padding, and repaint of the heel posts. The leather was separating from the edges of the soles. The shoes now look like new, and my wife was so pleased.
This guy is an artist with leather repair, and was worth the drive from our home in Riverside County!

Honest man making honest relationships with his customers. You get the feeling that this guy does his true labor. I’m happy to say that I’m working with Escobar to realize a personal project. Great service.

I previously took my shoes to Andre’s #1 on Fairfax & Sunset, but after Googling to see what was closer to me, Escobar’s popped up on my radar. I noticed it had consistent 5 star reviews, and went to see if prices were competitive (they totally were)!
Escobar’s current owner purchased the business about two years ago, and the work he does is quality. I have taken my Louboutin’s, Joie, Nina Ricci, and rubber Valentino rock stud sandals to him, and he’s been able to re-​sole, re-​condition, re-​stud them all. A few pairs of my Louboutin’s needed all around reconditioning plus new soles (he uses Vibram), my cat had shredded the feather detailing on my Nina Ricci boots (he removed it from both), and my Valentino’s had a lot of the studs missing, which he matched and put back on. I’m very happy with the work, all very reasonably priced! I will continue coming here for high quality work & materials for shoes that I consider an investment.
$ 45 — complete shoe & leather reconditioning
$ 5/​per stud on my shoes
$ 10 — sand down & re-​sole

I cannot reiterate enough how exceptional the work and service is at Escobar Shoe Service. I have been going there for about a year now and have taken everything in from my Loubies to my Tom Fords and I have always been happy with the results. You can tell that Herbert takes a lot of pride in his work and it shows in the results. He is time and cost efficient too! I am definitely only bringing my precious shoes here ;-)

Escobar Shoe Service saved me! I dropped off my husband’s shoes before a big work trip (thinking I was doing him a solid) and wasn’t able to make it to the store in time for it to close. It was very upsetting. He had to leave for his work trip the next morning and he had no better shoes then the one I took to Escobar! I thought we were going to have to buy him a new pair of shoes so that he would have a nice pair for his trip because it was an hour after closing. It was a time and expense we weren’t prepared to pay. There was no way we were going to get those shoes back before the trip. I messed up. I was so bummed. I thought if try and call Escobar to beg him to help us get the shoes back and he kindly obliged. He was kind, caring, and calm. My husband went from miserable to relieved and happy within an hour. The shoes looked great, too! I’m so grateful they were able to open the doors for us to get the shoes in time for my husband’s business trip.
I’m pretty sure many shops wouldn’t be as caring as this one. I came in because of the great Unilocal reviews and I must say they are deserving! Escobar does a beautiful job and he clearly cares about his service and reputation.
This place is a life saver. Take your shoes here. Honesty and integrity are hard to find.

LADIES GET YOUR SHOES RE DONE HERE.
I had an amazing experience. he re-​studded my casadei heels and the leather looks brand new.
I will only bring my bags and shoes here for now on.

This guy is awsome! He does a clean job, i trusted him with my Hermes belt to make it shorter and make extra holes on it, when i came back to pick it up it was like brand new just shorter as i wanted. He is professional you can trust him!

It’s hard to find a good shoe repair guy. There services are inexpensive and the work they do is clean. I took a pair of booties to get the heels replace and my booties are amazing. From now on this is going to be my to go shoe guy.

Remember Andy, he was there forever and a very nice guy which we missed.
I am very happy to meet Escobar the new owner who is GREAT, very professional shoe/​bags repairman, creative in his craft.
My wife and I are extremely please with Escobar’s friendly service and his pricing is very reasonable.
Will definitely recommend his services to all our Friends

Herbert is an artist as well as a lovely guy! He makes exquisite custom shoes and belts.
His quality is unsurpassed and his repairs are flawless. All done at a very reasonable price. What a find!

Herbert is the best! Went in to get a vintage pair re-​soled. Picked them up a few days later and they were perfect! He fixed up my shoes but made sure to kept the vintage look intact.
I’m happy to say, I’ve found my new shoe guy!

Herber is the MAN! I’ve taken three pairs of shoes to him in three weeks, each its own challenge and each a VERY good pair of shoes. He managed to make two of the pairs look brand new (a $ 700‑1000 savings if I tried to replace them). And got a water spot out of a handmade pair of Italian monkstrap shoes; two other shops couldn’t get this done. Great service, great work, great prices. If you need help with shoes this is the place! And you can get a taco, a stogie and your tailoring done all in the same centre.

So, I get to be the first to review the all-​new shoe repair store on the corner of Sweetzer! When I first came this year it was Andy’s, but now under the new management of the Escobar family. And it is a friendly, efficient family enterprise. I went to pick up Sam’s shoes — a pair of soles $ 20. Then I wanted another pair done, but for the same afternoon. No problem…4pm. Even the slightly worn out leather sole was not an issue. «We rebuild it in leather before adding the rubber sole.»
The prices are right as is the workmanship and turn around time.
