    There's a shoe mender in the Pavillions you could try, if not there is a sewing lady in Applewood Village who might be able to help.

    This is the guy. Absolutely old-school cobbler. The only guy I bring my shoes to.

    Don't bother with chains/stalls in shopping centres. Most will just lash a bit of glue on and hope for the best

    He's done that for me many times. Has an old leather tooled Singer machine in back.
