Masterful work on my Weston 607: English-style heel pads perfectly done—they’re like new. I’m eagerly awaiting the resoling of my Church’s Grafton, then we’ll move on to cleaning my leather jackets. Living outside Paris, I’m delighted to have found REAL artisan cobblers—don’t hesitate to entrust them with your “shoes”; they do the JOB. Thanks to the whole Galoche Patin team.
Excellent service: my Paraboots restored like new. And excellent communication.
I thought my pair of beige suede Santoni loafers was beyond saving, and I was amazed by the result. Thank you.
Thank you to the whole team for their professionalism and speed. I contacted them about a pair of shoes, they replied very quickly, and their after-sales service is great—super responsive and attentive. I was able to get my shoes in time for my holiday. Thank you, and I’ll use them again in the future. You can go with your eyes closed—I recommend them.
Excellent service!!! Galoche Patin brought back life and style to not one but two pairs of fairly worn, poorly maintained Timberlands.
Top-notch collection and delivery service
Very nice restoration work on a badly damaged pair of Westons—now like new thanks to you, perfect at-home service
