It could be a broken or loose shank.
I have seen cobblers drive nails through the soles to tighten the shank. You don't want that.
If it's in the shank the sole would have to be removed in order to get to it. That means the sole should be replaced.
Could also be a less envolved problem such as a loose heel base.
All the cobbler would have to do is remove and reset the heel.
Ask your cobbler what he plans to do before you leave your shoes with him.
