Thank you so much for reviewing cobblers in Canada!!! I live in Calgary and am from Vancouver, so I go back from time to time.
Been looking for one that does JR Soles ... So will try out Quick Cobbler when I get back. Back in 2016, he quoted you $139 but on his website, it looks like the price has changed to $199. Still a really good price for JRs, but is the drastic price increase really the case?
For the people in Montreal: the cobbler at Complexe Desjardins, called Cordonnerie Desjardins, does wonderful work. Plus, they offer JR soles for a very good price. Here's their website: https://www.cordonneriedesjardins.com

For JR, I do recoomend Egide http://egide.ca/reparation.html and you can see his work up close. I would use Carenthia for rubber and Egide for JR. Laurent Halimi doesnt have a store front, he does everything in his private workshop. Super nice guy, call him up he will call back pretty fast.Thanks! I haven't checked out that cobbler yet. Do you know If they have JR soles as well?

Have you used this cobbler before?
I was just looking at their Facebook pics. The leather sole rebuilds don't look very refined:
From the pic, the 2 pairs in the middle and right, the channel for the stitch groove are problematic. Granted that it won't affect the integrity of the soles, but that looks to be sloppy work.
