Just got my shoes back from being reheeled and they have made a total fucking pig's ear of them! Absolute shite. They've used a brown sealant paint all around the (previously very dark brown, almost black 'natural' finish) sole unit, which looks terrible, and there are fuck off gashes on the backs where the blakeys meet the rubber. Apparently it's not possible for the two parts to meet flush. As if. Pathetic cunts.
I'd have had them sort them out if I thought they had the wherewithal to fix the problem. Instead, I'll take them somewhere proper and hope they'll do a better job. Does anyone know of DECENT, REPUTABLE cobbler in the Clerkenwell area?
I'll post photos later.
