Chagrin Falls & Northeast Ohio
Riding boot repair for boots worth keeping.
Zippers, sliders, inside patches, elastic, snaps, spur rests and snap tabs for tall riding boots and other styles.

Why specialist repair matters
Fit is part of the value.
Riding boots are personal equipment. Once a pair has broken in to the rider, replacing it because of a zipper, patch, snap or elastic problem can mean giving up a fit that already works. Karen's repair work focuses on the components that commonly fail while the rest of the boot may still have useful life.

Final scope, price and turnaround depend on the individual repair and are discussed before work proceeds.

Repair before replacement
A broken zipper does not always mean a finished boot.
Sometimes the entire zipper needs replacement. Other times the issue may be the slider or another component. The useful first step is diagnosis, not assumption.
That is one reason Karen's 35+ years of repair experience matters. A repair specialist can look at the failure in the context of the entire boot rather than treating every problem the same way.
Before drop-off or shipping
All boots must be washed with warm soapy water and dried before they are dropped off or sent for repair. A $50 cleaning fee applies to boots that arrive dirty.
