Really pleased that companies like BRC exist, as I'd rather revive existing shoes than buy more. I sent them 3, very broken down pairs of Birkenstocks (one maybe 35 years old...), and now have 3 "new"... See more

Outstanding service from start to finish

From Start to finish I have nothing but praise for the boot repair company.
First to be mentioned and is an amazing person is Rachelle who i communicated with regarding my Boots, quick fast and put my mind at ease straight away when I sent her emails about sending my boots to the company.
My boots arrived back last night and the repair to the soles is amazing like new pair of boots and can’t wait to walk in them tonight.
Thank you So much and will most definitely use your company again not only for boots.

I don't like to leave a 2 star review

I don't like to leave a 2 star review , so you read and decide if it's fair

Firstly, comms via IG were excellent. The person handling the comms was pretty quick in replying etc

Sent outs in after long discussions about requirements and they eventually came back... with a beige sole, not the black they went it with...

Comms were apologetic and a return was arranged.

Several weeks passed despite me being told it would be around 10 days

Boots finally back and are ok. Scuffed from handling but ok. I'd expect a quick wipe over with conditioner to send them back looking like they were when they went in, but no big deal

Timpsons would have been the same price, quicker, and I'd have felt more inclined to make a fuss. As it is, I have simply accepted i can't recommend ...
Or use them again.

Zero gesture was offered for the inconvenience either.

Thank you for the review Daniel, I was dealing with the Instagram and you were indeed very patient and understanding throughout and you're well in your right to leave this review.

A lesson was learnt from your experience and we now offer colour choices on our site to avoid this ever happening again. But I agree that you waited a long time whilst we were amending our mistake and I sincerely apologise for that Daniel, it's definitely something I am going to feedback to the team.

My boots (10 years+ old) look better than they did when they were new. Process was easy to follow and completed much quicker than estimated. Would thoroughly recommend.

Brilliant service

Brilliant service. Beautiful repair of well loved boots that I was not ready to part with. These were an unbranded boot and they managed to find a suitable sole. Delighted and now I can enjoy my old friends for years to come!
Top company !

I just wanted to say an enormous thank you for recently repairing my beloved old Dubarry Galway boots for me. I burst into tears of joy when I opened the box, as I actually couldn’t believe my eyes. They were sent away in such a dreadful state, with the soles hanging off, and the footbeds crumbling away, that I thought they were really only fit for the bin. I actually never truly believed that they could be salvaged. And yet, here they were, looking literally as good as new. And bless you, they had even been given a clean!
These old boots have been on so many adventures with me, and they have been such faithful old friends over the years. They were irreplaceable in my eyes, as I personally feel that the former high quality of these boots is now no longer a feature, so buying a new replacement pair was never an option.
Thank you so much!

New life to old shoes

From the initial email enquiry and placing my order, to receiving my shoes back with new soles, a first class service. I placed my order, used the Royal Mail label provided and sent my 1461 shoes off for new soles. 7 days later I received an email to say they were complete and had been despatched, they arrived the next morning. A first class repair to an old faithful pair of shoes by a first class company, thank you!

It's a pleasure to write a review for an honest and trustworthy company.

I've just received back the boot sent to you for zip replacement. I see that you've repaired the original zip and refunded my credit card in full. I can't thank you enough and will recommend your services to all my friends. It's a pleasure to write a review for an honest and trustworthy company.

So easy and professional communication

Everything was so easy. I followed the step by step instructions and when I had a question and got in touch with the team, the response was prompt and professional.

I had a 10+ year old pair of Scarpa walking boots which started to let water in and the soles were degrading so sent them in and despite needing to pay a little extra for extra work required, the boots were returned to me with immaculate and sturdy new soles. My boots have many years left in them now. Would much rather pay £100 or so to get new soles than pay over £300 for new boots so thank you so much to the Boot Repair Co. Will be sending my Docs in soon!

Great Customer Service and Quality of Repair

I have a pair of Red Wing Beckham boots whose soles were in desperate need of replacing. I live in Argentina and brought them back to the UK this winter. I chose The Boot Repair Company after reading about the positive reviews and being a recognised Red Wing repair service. After an initial issue that was sorted out by Rachelle in a very professional manner I was delighted with the quality of the work. Thanks to all concerned for the professional service.

We can't believe you brought your Red Wings all the way from Argentina, but we are so grateful! We hope it was worth the trip for both you and your boots! Thanks for the review Alan.

DM's that sorely need new soles.

With two pairs of DM's that sorely needed new soles and rewelting I turned to the Boot Repair Company - as recommended by Dr. Martens. I'm glad I did as the quality of the repaired boots are as if they were a new pair.
The price was reasonable, considering the price of a new pair of DM's. The shipping process straightforward, and turnaround surprisingly quick.
I haven't tried their non DM service yet but I'm sure it will be just as good.
Will recommend.
