birks

[snugglekitty]

I need to get my Birks fixed. They need resoling (again! and it's only been six or seven years! *grin*) and the cork is cracked near the heel on one of them. Before summer comes seems like a good time, so I should take them in soon.

Has anyone used any of the following shoe repair joints?



Felix Shoe Repair
1 1/2 Linden Street
Cambridge, MA 02138
(617) 547-2080

United Shoe Repair
460 Mass Avenue
Arlington, MA 02474
(781) 646-9470

Odessa Instant Shoe
10 Pl Alley
Boston, MA 02108
(617) 723-5530



I know they're all qualified to fix Birks, but it would be great to get a personal recommendation. Or, if you went somewhere else, where did YOU go?

I had some resoling done at Odessa (corporate drag shoes, not birks) and it was... mediocre. I probably wouldn't go back, even if I was still working a three minute walk away.

(These days, I use a shop in West Concord, but that's not very convenient for you.)

Good to know. I'll cross Odessa off the list.
Thanks!
