Thank you so much the job you did on my doc Martin's is absolutely fantastic i get to wear them again highly recommend to anyone

Legend! Great photo.
Shane
Sent some favourite Mi Piaci smart trainers for a complete resole. The photo shows the before and after - the shoes were completely stuffed!
The service was extremely quick, and an excellent job has been done - basically a new pair of shoes. Not a cheap service, but well worth it for quality shoes.
Hi Pippa
Thanks for sending in your favourites — those Mi Piaci trainers had plenty of life left in them under the surface! Glad you’re happy with the result and felt it was worth the investment to bring them back.
Kind regards
Eden
Five Star Service, my two pairs of favourite boots are going to be lasting a long while yet. I thought they might be unfixable but turns out not. Super speedy turnaround. Shane's Shoe Repairs are fantastic!
Hi Kim
Thanks for the great review — stoked we could give your favourite boots a new lease on life! Always satisfying to save a pair you thought might be done for. Appreciate the kind words.
Kind regards
Eden
So happy with my walking boot re-sole.
Very handy work, attention to detail was fantastic. I should get another life cycle out of boots now. Great to not have to throw them away just cause the soles had worn out.
Can I give 11/10? Cause I just did.
Thanks Stephen, great timing, was writing notes for any further of that 'cut out' style coming in. Quite a challenge.
Kind regards
Shane
Exceptional service. fantastic repair on boots. Will be recommending service to everyone. And so quick- thank you.
Hi Anne
Thank you for trusting us with your colourful boots. Brightened up the workshop and made a pleasant change from the black and dark brown boot.
Keep in touch, if you have any issues or questions I'm keen to help. Having the split sole is an added little challenge.
Kind regards
Shane
I thought the service was excellent
Completely renewed my very old Berkis
Very happy with complete service including the speed .
Thanks Ron, appreciate your business. Always a leap of faith sending your shoes and money to a stranger in another area!
Give them heaps eventually the Polyurethane foam that they are made of may fail. Not from wear but time.
Thanks again
Shane
Was recommended Shane Barr’s shoe repair by a private Facebook groups member.
I emailed him enquiring about resoling my 10 yr old doc Martin boots. He replied the same day. I sent them in the post on a Monday and by Friday they had return with everything fixed as per the quote. I highly recommend this business and would definitely use them again.
The Camper Shoe Sole Repair.recently completed by Shane Barr Shoe Repairs is an excellent job. The best I have seen with the best guarantee as well. Highly recommended.
Great service
I live 150 k's away from Tauranga was there for another reason and dropped my footwear off and they did the repairs in super fast time
Thanks Guys
Excellent repair, friendly and fast service, highly recommended. Thanks so much Shane I'm really impressed!
Great job thanks!!
I hung onto my beloved Sebago Bala boat shoes even though the soles were so thin and slippy I couldn’t wear them, my favourite summer shoes and could find a replacement.
Shane’s add popped up on FB and after some consideration I decided to send them off.
Being a bit bespoke, they’re not exactly ’like new’, they look great and I will be able to wear them again (without risk of breaking my neck!)
Great communication, prompt service and I will definitely recommend to everyone!
Hi Katy, we're thrilled to hear your shoes are wearable again! Thanks so much for your kind words and for recommending us.
Kind regards
Eden
Although expensive, the repairs made my shoes as good as new!
Hi Riaan,
Thank you, really glad the repair made your shoes as good as new. That result is exactly what we aim for.
I have a new pair of boots :) so great to be able to get more life out of these boots I love that I haven’t been able to replace
Hi,
Thank you. Boots you love and cannot replace are exactly the ones worth saving, so it is great we could get more life out of them and have you feeling like you have a new pair.
Great service 😊
very good service- got exactly what I ordered
Glad it all came together as expected. Thanks for the review!
Kind Regards,
Eden
Looks great very nice job
I needed to have the soles repaired on my sandals and when discussing it with Shane's shoe repairs realized new soles would be better. As I like the sandals I agreed it would be a better result. He also said he'd tidy up the sandals after being repaired a few years ago by another shop. The results look great. Very happy. They were ready to pick up when they advised.
Hi Janet
Thanks for the lovely review. Glad we could give your sandals the proper refresh they needed — and tidy up that old repair while we were at it. Always satisfying to get a result that feels right.
Kind regards
Eden
So lovely to have my sandals x2 back without the soles 'flapping' and nearly tripping me up!
Happy Christmas
Hi Lois
Thanks for the lovely message — great to hear your sandals are back in action and no more flapping around! Always satisfying to get them feeling solid underfoot again.
Kind regards
Eden
Sent two pair of Birkenstock shoes up for resole/repair and received phone calls and emails from Shane throughout the whole process. If you want an A1 service from start to finish, then send your shoes to Shane's Shoe Repairs.
Hi Gerry
Thanks so much!! We're so glad the service and communication hit the mark, and we could get both pairs sorted properly for you. Appreciate you sending them our way!
Kind regards

Hi Chris
Thanks for sending your shoes in. Hope the handmade rubber soles are doing the job and feeling solid underfoot!
Kind regards
Eden
I thought the service was awesome, Shane went above and beyond, even working on his day off.
The boots were glued many times, and it was time they needed resoling.
Shane took me through the process, and he’s made a great job. Definately will recommend other people use your services.😊
Thanks heaps.
Sacha Elsmore
Hi Sacha
Thanks a bunch for the awesome review! It was a real pleasure helping breathe new life into your boots—after all that gluing, they definitely earned a fresh resole! I’m glad the process made sense and that you’re happy with the result. Your kind words and recommendation mean a lot, and we're always here if your boots (or any others) need a bit more love down the track 😊
Kind regards
Eden
