Emil’s Shoe Repairs

I have a leather fetish to rival that of a dominatrix, however my interest only extends to shoes and man bags. Emils has been on Chapel for as long as I can remember, selling vintage boots before it became over priced.
A good shoe re-​soleing will set you back anywhere between $ 20-​$ 40 depending upon the shoe and level of damage (you can usually find smaller cheaper places in the burbs) however this store is really about their leather selection.
There is an excellent selection extending to cowboy boots, brogues, Doc’s, RM’s, Ian Harold cubans, mens/women’s shoulder bags/​handbags and an assortment of vintage clothing pieces make this a desirable destination for fancy footwear.
Prices are on average lower than that of say ‘Shappere’ but will still set you back around $ 40-​$ 150 for a good pair of kicks. This is one of the stores that cements Windsor as the original stalwarts of vintage fashion.
