Who are other good shoe repair stores in NYC other than B. Nelson? Just good to know what other options are.

How is Perry Ercolino?

I don't want to hijack this, but by "avoiding the B. Nelson fiasco," you might just walk into an even worse fiasco. I had a pair of Grenson Masterpiece resoled by B. Nelson two years ago and they did an outstanding job.

Jim's on 59th is, IMO, the best. Shoe Service Plus on 55th gets good reviews; I don't like them as much.

iirc they work for a few of the men's and women's shoe stores. Have used them as well as Jim's and have no complaints.
