About us

At The Boot Repair Company, we believe every scuff, scratch, and worn sole has a story — and we’re here to help continue that story with care, craftsmanship, and heart.

Our roots run deep. Robert, a master craftsman with over 80 years of experience, has been repairing shoes since he was just 12 years old. He started small — pulling out old nails and screws for reuse — but even then, he was learning the value of hard work and attention to detail. Over time, Robert built a reputation at The Shoe Repair Shop as one of the most trusted names in the business. His hands have brought countless pairs of shoes, boots, belts, and bags back to life.

But this story takes a meaningful turn through his son, Ryan.

Ryan never expected to follow in his father’s footsteps. He had his own path in mind — until life shifted in an instant. When Robert suffered a heart attack, Ryan returned home to care for him. While helping at the shop during Robert’s recovery, something unexpected happened: Ryan started to see his father’s work in a new light.

He watched the way Robert handled each piece with care, how customers lit up when their beloved items were returned better than new. Slowly, what began as a gesture of support turned into something much deeper. Ryan wasn’t just helping anymore — he was learning, connecting, and falling in love with the craft.

As Robert regained his strength, Ryan kept at it — experimenting, refining, and eventually bringing his own ideas to life. With a desire to serve a growing demand for boot restoration and repair, Ryan launched The Boot Repair Company six years ago, carving his own path while honoring the legacy he was raised in.

Ryan began in the B2B space, providing high-quality boot repairs for businesses and bulk orders. Over time, he expanded his services to individual customers through Instagram, Facebook, and word of mouth — building a loyal community that values quality, trust, and a personal touch. Though their shops are separate, Robert and Ryan still support each other — a father and son duo connected by craftsmanship, family, and pride in their work.

At The Boot Repair Company, we don’t just fix footwear — we restore what matters most to you. Every item that comes through our doors is treated with the same care and commitment that Robert instilled in Ryan years ago. Whether it’s a pair of boots with years of adventure in them, a bag that’s been by your side through thick and thin, or a belt passed down through generations, we believe in bringing it back to life — not just for practical use, but for the memories it carries.

This is more than a repair shop. It’s a continuation of a legacy. It’s about honoring where we came from while stepping boldly into what’s next.

Thank you for trusting us to be a part of your journey. We’re proud to do this work — not just for the craftsmanship, but for the stories we help preserve.
