shoe repair
A retail shop where shoes, boots, and other footwear are received for repair, often with related care services.
A shoe repair shop is a retail space where shoes, boots, and other footwear can be taken to be repaired. These spaces often sell shoe accessories such as laces and insoles, and offer shoe polishing and cleaning.
Repair can concern footwear other than shoes, including boots. Polishing and cleaning can accompany the repair service.
Laces or insoles may be sold as related goods. Selling those accessories alone does not establish a footwear repair shop.
