Title: boot repair recommendation ONTARIO?
Post by: ONskater74 on January 11, 2014, 07:21:27 AM
Okay, last night at the rink I was lacing up and my lace pulled through the hole below the flex notch, ripped right through the leather! I just skipped it and went upto the first hook, but now I'm needing a repair ASAP! Is there any Ontario readers who know of boot/shoe/leather repair places who will do a fast repair? This is my only pair of skates other than some old broken ones. HELP! :(

The beat I know of is in downtown Toronto at Adelaide and Yonge.  Just go to your local shoe repair place they might be able to help.  If you can find an old fashioned cobbler even better.  I have had this happen and they just patched it with leather.  I am rough on my skates so I have experienced most issues you can.

The one in Toronto is Novelty Shoe Repair.

I think, if you contact Jason and ask, the Skating Boutique in Toronto can sort out boot repairs as well.
