Great lil shop. Every key he has carved has worked, even the ones I had to obtain myself and bring in. Thanks!
If I could give 10 stars, I would. One of the nicest guys youll meet. Loves his craft. I expected an old man for some reason when I thought of a small shoe repair shop, but hes full of youth and passion. He fixed a pair of hockey skates for me and went above and beyond. He was more reasonable than I expected, so I gave him more than he asked. I would highly recommend them.
Started out nice, owner only cobbler, became overwhelmed due to unable to keep up with his workload promise date. Though not my fault treated unprofessionally & rude. Very disappointed with the new owners lack of maturity. He never apologized for his behavior.
So Sam the shoemaker has retiredAnd the new shoe maker is in..His name is David.. so I had just bought a pair of tennis shoes and the straps to tie the laces came offSo I went to Ardmore I met DavidDavid is the new owner!!!Wow!!!The professional job this man did was like a miracleNot only was he a perfectionist but the service wasRemarkable..It was in a matter of an hour ..I explained to him it was urgent and needed them ASAPAnd yes !!!!! He made it happenI highly recommend David for all your shoe repair needs...100%!Thank you!!!!!!!
They exceeded all expectations. Repaired my shoes to better than new condition.
Excellent cobbler, I loved my boots. When the soles were parting and the leather needed a refresh, his work was affordable and better than I imagined.I can count on his impeccable attention to details.I paid in advanced and I understand why its necessary cost and pick up can become uncollectable.This in a man of authenticity and honor!
Fantastic quality of workmanship. Customer service was super. Had to find a true shoemaker these days.
What an honest man and company! I stopped into the shop thinking I needed 2 new watch batteries for my key fob. ($5/ea+) I knew what type I needed and had just asked for that. The owner began asking questions, what is it for, are you sure thats your problem. He proceeded to take my batteries out, clean the unit, try new one just to see if they fixed my issue BEFORE he would sell me anything. And guess what, that wasnt my problem and he made no money off of me. He was very friendly and personable and offered me advice on where to go next. I would recommend his company to anyone Id have the chance!
Very pleased with this business! Took in two pairs of boots for reheeling, and he did an excellent job for a very fair price. Highly recommend!
I have been a frequent customer of Ardmore and not only is their quality exceptional Dave and his wife are incredibly friendly, professional and courteous. Great place to do business!
Best leather guy around. Had some boots other cobblers told me were beyond repairable. Ardmore got them sorted out and theyre fantastic.
Really impressed with his work. Repair was done timely, it was done well, and the Polish job made them look brand new.
Not sure who answered the phone but very friendly & helpful (Could not possibly be the normal guy thats there).

2022-01-10My partner brought my boots to Ardmore to get them fixed as a surprise for my birthday. He didnt realize that I had a vision for them and wanted to talk to the repair person prior to work being done. Once he told me what hed done, we quickly called and Barbie answered the phone. She was pleasant, kind and understanding to the situation. They stopped the repair immediately and waited for me to come in to discuss details. Upon entering the cute shop, located very conveniently on a 3 road intersection and easy to get to, I was immediately wowed by a cool old shoe repair machine they had on display and a gorgeous emerald green velvet couch. Barbie came out and spoke to me about what they had already done and what could be done from that point on. My initial thoughts were to put a thick platform sole on the boots but I also wanted durability. Both Barbie and even her partner took the time to explain all the options, what soles are good and even how the boots themselves were made and WHY. They were extremely patient while doing so, as I had many questions. In the end I agreed to a thinner, more durable sole because I work in them as well. They quoted about 2 weeks, being busy from the holidays. They called me LESS THAN A WEEK later to let me know my boots were finished! Also, to my astonishment and delight, they added a thicker midsole(?) to give me more of that platform feel I thought I had to sacrifice! I absolutely LOVE how they turned out and am so pleased to have given these sweet and knowledgeable humans my business. I have a large boot collection and will most assuredly be coming back!

2022-09-17Paid to have shoes stretched after getting them home they were still a little tight. They wanted to charge me again to put stretchers back in for a while. She also selected the wrong size and color shoe laces. She tries but doesnt know what shes doing. Bad business practices. Will never use them again.
