Fantastic services! I was gifted a vintage leather bag and tried to do some leather cleaning at home, then ended up making some weird spots. I was so disheartened and brought it to The Cobbler in San Mateo where they were able to match the color of the leather perfectly and hide the spots I made. It took about a month, but totally worth their great work. You can still notice the spot I made if you knew where it was previously. Sharing before and after photos because they really brought this bag back to life. Will definitely come back and recommend their services.

The Cobbler is a great place for all kinds of repairs such as shoes, boots, handbags, leather goods, clothing alterations, mending such as snap fastening, etc. They provided personal, friendly service. Very easy to work with. A valuable local resource!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Cobbler in San Bruno is truly a hidden gem! They restored my old shoes to a like-new condition — the craftsmanship is absolutely top-tier. Every detail was handled with care and precision. The owners are wonderful, professional, and clearly passionate about their craft. If you value quality, skill, and excellent service, I highly recommend The Cobbler. Worth every penny!
