text: Cobbled stones and heels were never very good friends in Edinburgh Inevitably they will argue squabble and someone will have to give in usually the heel in my experience You would think that shoe shops in the City would have picked up on this profitable business True heels today are not a huge investment a mere tenner in many shops but some of us have found that one pair of shoes that fits like a glove and are comfortable to trot around in and were not a mere tennernnAfter a fateful snap I took one of these shoes to this Timpsons thinking it cannot be that hard to get fixed The damage was pounds for one shoe back home two shoes done professionally would be euros but as I said I love these shoes nnWhat I got back after two days however was something I could have done better The glue was all over the back heel of the shoe done extremely sloppily The heel now wiggles a bit and there is a gap between heel and shoe I tried getting the heel off and get them done somewhere else probably to Greece when I next get back but as the glue is super strong and all over the suede shoe itself they now look bad nnI will not be returning to this place with any shoes I treasure and I would suggest caution to anyone with a similar problem nnAnyone got a good shoemaker in mind for future reference
