Fast Eddie's Shoe Repair

Eddie repaired the soles of my shoes, repaired the inside which had broken down in a favorite pair of boots, replaced a zipper and repaired a dog leash for me.
Eddie's reminds me of what shoe repair stores were like in Brooklyn, NY when I was growing up 50 years ago
Turns out people drive across town,and from St Paul because no one can beat them.

I think all prices were fair except for the dog leash. If my puppy gets a hold of that leash again.he's going to have to pay the repair himself or be forced to wear his leash from the dollar store. If he wants to go to the dog park looking like a raggedy mutt, so be it..

This Dinkytown establishment features good repairs at good prices. Ive never met Eddie, but Ive always gotten good service at a fair price.
If you have a worn out pair of Birkenstocks or any other repairable shoe, take them to Fast Eddies. The cobblers at Fast Eddies have often repaired shoes that I thought were beyond salvation.

Like most shoe repair joints, Fast Eddies also stocks a broad selection of shoe care products. I always park on the street. Bring some quarters, free parking is hard to find due to the stores proximity to the University
