Cobblers.....currently open shoe repairer?

[topt]

Can anybody recommend a good shoe repairer in Pattaya or even Jomtien that they know is still around?

 

Seems like the ones I used to know of have gone out of business.

Pattaya Tai just a doorway or so up from that busy Turkish kebab shop on the corner of 2nd rd.

He's been there years but unsure if covid times have done for his business so ask the local motobike guys if he's not there.

Over on the Darkside there's a shoe repair shop that's still open (I drive past it all the time). Located on Soi Nern Plab Wan, northwest corner of the train track intersection.

Well I passed on your message to my mate who is the actual person looking and he said he used to use this guy. After your comment he went again and said that the "shop" is still there but no signs of work/occupancy so not sure if there is some confusion over location or not.

 

Please don't shoot the messenger, and thanks for updating, but both of you can't be right - unless as I said it's a location thing 

 

PS. @bbko he is actually using the one you mentioned who is definitely still there.

He might be only opening the odd day or had commitments (funerals etc) as I actually saw him with my own dodgy eyes.

I've seen a large sewing machine at the shoe place I mentioned in this thread.

A while ago a member called Oink said he had some leather soles done at this shop , and I asked him to put a couple of photos on but he never did.
