Local Business Highlight: City Shoe Repair


Morning everyone!  This week's local business highlight is one of my favorite little repair shops! City Shoe Repair and Cobbler shop in Hickory. It's on a one way street, so you have to drive around the block depending on your approach, but it's so worth it to be able to get a little more life out of a pair of boots or shoes!

Also, they were very helpful when my six year old needed custom straps for her little red accordion. It's a rare instrument these days, particularly for such a little person, and the shortest straps I could find still required a few more notches and some excess cut off.

It's always nice to know someone with heavy duty leather and fabric tools!
