Does anyone have experience with a nearby shoe repair shop? I'm looking to get a pair of old cowboy boots stretched a bit and cleaned, and re-heeled. I'm willing to drive a bit from SO/Maplewood if necessary. Thank you.   ffof Citizen Username: Ffof Post Number: 4503 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Monday, February 13, 2006 - 4:24 pm:        There's a shoe repair place on Main street in Millburn by the Grooming Room. It's very good.   Meandtheboys Citizen Username: Meandtheboys Post Number: 2998 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Monday, February 13, 2006 - 4:51 pm:        It's called True Fit (I think) just had a couple things done there last week--including stretching a pair of cowboy boots! The guy seems very eager to please!   Lydia Supporter Username: Lydial Post Number: 1672 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Monday, February 13, 2006 - 7:43 pm:        Tru-Fit is great, and the owner goes out of his way to make you a happy customer - highly recommend. (That's 3 votes, now you have to go there!)   Captainwalton Citizen Username: Captainwalton Post Number: 2 Registered: 2-2006 Posted on Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 10:58 am:        Thanks very much. cw   Peter Citizen Username: Peter Post Number: 205 Registered: 7-2004 Posted on Thursday, February 16, 2006 - 3:27 pm:        I have to have my shoes specially modified. The guy in Millburn ruined a pair of new shoes, and I even showed him a pair of shoes that had been modified and told him to do exactly that, and he did something else. The best shoe repair place around is Ragos in MOrristown. You can UPS the shoes there and Tommy will call you and get instrutions and UPS them back. Or you can take them to Nordstrom at Short Hills and they'll send them there for you.
