The stitching has
come undone on
Eric's right sneaker.
His sneakers have lots of tread on them, making a repair worth its cost. I called around and found a Shoe Repair Shop that reopened as Covid Restrictions have eased.
(Google Blogger is redoing its Blogging Product and there are issues that I can't work around, like unwanted spacing in photo descriptions and spacing between sentences and photos.)
Eric & I drove to
... to Town Cobbler
Shoe Repair.
A wide assortment
of accessories &
blank keys.
I told Mr. Bortner that we would be leaving this section of Pennsylvania soon. He asked me to wait while he restitched Eric's sneaker. After examining the left sneaker and finding two broken stitches, he offered to reinforce its stitching too.
The Rate Schedule
Eric's right sneaker has been
repaired with reinforced stitching.
Mr. Bortner stitched Eric's left
sneaker, saving us from another
sneaker repair later.
He charged $5.00 for the repairs. I told Mr. Bortner that he doesn't charge enough for his work. He knows this and has no intention of changing his rates. I thanked the skilled craftsman for his work and skipped back to our car with sneakers that will last another two years, or more.
