Showcasing our shoe and handbag repairs with before and after photos
These Christian Louboutin Dandelion Spikes Loafers had been worn only a handful of times, but the clear, plastic protective soles previously added to them were not adding much in the way of protection. We added a pair of full protective Vibram rubber soles, covering the entire length of each shoe.
The leather panel around the bottom of this Burberry camera bag had lost some of its colour around the corners. We cleaned and conditioned the discoloured leather before recolouring / refinishing it.
These R.M. Williams Craftsman boots had a large tear around the outside of the left boot, just above the soles. We repaired the torn leather by applying a leather patch to cover seal up the tear and reinforce the surrounding area.
The full leather soles and quarter-rubber heels on these Church’s leather ankle books were worn all the way through. We performed a full re-sole, replacing the heels and soles along the entire length of each shoe with entirely new soles and heels.
The vachetta leather trim on this Louis Vuitton Neverfull handbag was cracking and tearing, causing an otherwise elegant bag seem beyond its best days.. We replaced the leather trim with an entirely new one.
The straps on this Chanel Classic Quilted Jumbo Backpack were no longer sitting correctly, due to the leather loop to which they were attached having become worn and soft. We replaced the leather loop with a new, stronger one.
The soles and heels on these Chloé Lauren Studded Ballet Flats were almost new but starting to show noticeable wear. We re-heeled the shoes with full rubber heels and add a pair of thin, protective rubber soles over the top of the leather.
This Gucci tote had become badly worn on the leather corners around the base of the bag, with some light surface tearing and discolouration. We cleaned and conditioned the canvas and leather before recolouring and restoring the leather.
This Hermès Birkin bag was losing the wax edging along the top rim of the bag, which had begun to disintegrate. We carefully removed the old edging and re-edged/re-waxed these parts of the bag.
The strap on this Guess backpack had begun to tear and split apart. We repaired the straps by re-glueing the loose leather and shortening the straps slightly.
