The heel blocks on these Christian Louboutin shoes were heavily damaged and the soles were wearing away. We re-covered both heel blocks with new suede and installed a new pair of red sole protectors.
These Valentino Rockstud pumps were in need of repair, with soles and heels showing signs of wear. We replaced the heel tips and repaired the heel blocks as well as installed a pair of thin rubber sole protectors for improved longevity and traction.
The heels and soles on these Valentino Rockstud Ankle Strap Pumps were heavily worn, with the heel tips missing, the leather around the heel blocks torn and hanging loose, and the soles worn right through at the toes. We replaced the heel tips, repaired the heel blocks and repaired the soles before installing a pair of rubber sole protectors.
These Gucci heels were looking thoroughly worn, with the heel tips worn down and the metallic gold leather uppers having lost much of their original colour and lustre. We replaced the heel tips and then cleaned and conditioned the leather uppers before recolouring / refinishing them.
Louboutin’s shoes are best known for their signature red soles, and yet these are first to go in terms of wear, with the red colour quickly wearing away within a few wears. We protected the original leather soles on this pair by installing a pair of thin, glossy rubber soles over the top.
The leather covering the toes on these Christian Louboutin Nosy 120 pumps was heavily scratched after an accident. We re-covered the toe area on both shoes with entirely new leather.
These Jimmy Choo Maiara 90 ankle boots came with protective rubber pieces that sit well within the perimeter of the soles and are depressed, leaving the leather around the edges of those soles unprotected. We installed rubber sole protectors covering the whole front half of each sole.
These Christian Louboutin Pigalle Follies studded pumps were looking great, except that the soles protectors were coming apart and the heel tips were worn down. We replaced the heel tips and the sole protectors with a finish deserving of such an elegant pair of shoes.
The heels on these Christian Louboutin Senora 100 pumps were in bad shape, with the heel tips completely missing and the leather around the heel blocks peeling apart. We repaired the heel blocks and replaced the heel tips.
The heel blocks on these Sophia Webster Rosalind sandals were just a little too tall for the wearer. We shortened the heels for the customer, making the shoes much more comfortable.
