Rodney is very familar with orthopedic work on shoes. Had to have lifts put on my shoes due to leg length problem. Rodney did an amazing job at a fair price. Very happy with the results.

Fantastic service! I got my used dress shoe soles repaired within days and I have no question about the quality and longevity. Rodney knows what he’s doing, and he does it well.
