Hallelujah ShoeWorks

I had a pair of very fine Italian shoes sent back to their factory, only to be told they were too damaged to fix. Hallelujah repaired these expertly in a matter of a few days and at a fraction of the cost that the factory had quoted me. I’m very impressed and will recommend this shop to anyone I know in need of similar repairs.

Hallelujah Shoe Works don’t just repair shoes — they repaired the strap of my designer leather handbag. It now looks just like new but is stronger than ever. Great service, convenient location, quick turnaround (1 day) and excellent value for only $ 25. They also have a fantastic little shopfront with lots of handy small items for sale (shoe inserts/​savers/​polishes etc).

Have you ever had a pair of shoes that you just cannot part with? I have. They were a beautiful pair of cream quilted ballet flats with a black toe. I loved them because not only were they hella comfortable, but each time I wore them I felt a little Audrey Hepburn-​esque. They made me feel polished, sophisticated and casually chic. They had a Chanel look to them without the price tag. I even went through a phase of not wearing them for fear of ruining them, but that’s a story for another review.
Well, sure enough as a pair of well worn shoes do, the sole gave up the ghost but I wasn’t ready to give up on them yet. That’s when I sent them into the shoe ER that is Hallelujah at the bottom of Broadway on the Mall (head towards the back of the food court to find this sole saver!). Within days my shoes were back to their prime and lasted for another 18 months before I finally had to say goodbye. All in all the repair set me back maybe $ 20 or $ 30 which compared to what I paid for them was a pittance.
The guys at Hallelujah have also saved a handbag that for sentimental reasons (it was a gift from my oldest and dearest friend) I couldn’t accept was gone for good. They repaired the leather and when they say invisible stitching they mean it. There was no telling on a glance that this well loved handbag had had a few cosmetic touch-​ups.
For reliable, quality and affordable service I’ll always head to Hallelujah!
