Hi, we're the Olson's, Bob and Lee. We bought our very first shoe store during our first year of marriage, and after 48 years we still enjoy unlocking the door every morning to the wonderful smell of leather. My husband, Bob, learned the shoe repair trade as a young boy from his father and uncle who owned a store together.
As a young couple, we embarked on the wonderful world of the retail shoe business, stocking the inventory of our store with the needs of our customers in mind. Four stores, three children and ten grandchildren later, we are now located in the beautiful St. Croix Valley in St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin.

Brought in a pair of double H western boots I lost a heel on while working. Made a request to have them resoled with a different sole that weren't as slippery as the originals while they had them. Received them back days earlier than they predicted and they looked like I just took them out of the box again with a much better bottom sole. They've definitely earned by business for years to come, for both new boots and to have them repaired!

I had a uniform boot with a zipper on the side that blew out, brought it in on Wednesday to get checked out and see if they could fix it. The guy working said he could fix it, checked out the other boot to make sure the other one looked like it wasn't about to go either, grabbed my info said he'd call back when it was ready. (my repair only cost me $25, which I thought was more than reasonable, I anticipated a much higher cost)
I got the call two days later that my boot was repaired, picked it up and I can hardly tell that they worked on it, it matches up well with the original workmanship and

The price I paid to have my shoes re-soled and the leather reworked was well worth it. They are actually a better shoe than when I bought them. Jerry does amazing work. If you want to high quality repair to an expensive pair of shoes or boots this is your place. Do not hesitate. the owners are amazing people in the community and it's a great local shop.

The old saying goes "Spend your money on your boots and mattress. If you are not in one, you are in the other." That about sums me up. Took my beaten boots in for repair. They did an amazing job. I hardly recognized them when I picked them up.
I have never been to this shop before but was very happy. Service, turn around time,the way I was treated and quality of work were top notch. I am really glad I found this place.
