This vintage Ralph Lauren shoulder bag was in almost perfect shape for its age, but the gold badge on the front was scratched and discoloured. We polished and re-plated the badge, to buff out the scratches and restore its colour.

The soles on these RM Williams Stockyard boots were worn down and in need of replacement. We performed a full resole, replacing the soles with a new pair of custom-made rubber soles.
These Valentino Patent Rockstud Pumps were looking worn, with the patent leather around the heel blocks torn and peeling, and the leather soles wearing down quickly with no protection. We re-covered the heel blocks with new leather, repaired the leather soles, and installed a pair of protective rubber soles.
These RM Williams Craftsman boots were mauled by a playful pup, who managed to tear off a chunk of leather and a pull tab from around the back of one of the boots. We repaired the damaged leather and replaced the missing pull tab.
These Aquazzurra Forever Marilyn pumps had torn leather around the heel blocks and noticeably worn leather soles. We repaired the leather around the heel blocks and repaired and protected the leather soles.
These Christian Louboutin Roc X Tass mules were well-looked after, but one of the seams around the opening of one of the shoes was torn. We reinforced the torn suede and re-stitched the seam.
The leather on these Gucci Leather Drivers was heavily scuffed and torn, particularly around the toes and the backs of the heels. We cleaned and conditioned the leather uppers before repairing the tears and recolouring / refinishing the damaged leather.
The leather soles on these Jimmy Choo Misty 120 shoes were visibly worn and remained unprotected and so prone to further, accelerated wear and tear. We repaired the soles and installed a pair of premium rubber sole protectors.
This Chanel bag was in good condition, but the sides had lost their shape and become distorted. We firmed up the inner lining to restore the bag's original form and structure.
Regular wear had left the suede on these RM Williams boots stained and discoloured. We re-dyed the suede to black, to produce a consistent colour and finish throughout the boots and give the boots a fresh look.
