The first 2 shots show the tongue expansion.

The bottom shows the split-expansion of the midsole/outsole.

Amazing!

Making shoes wider and deeper

at Xenia Shoe and Leather.

Challenge: Accepted and Accomplished!

Peeled off the boot bumper, cleaned up the leather, sewed new welt onto both toes, replaced the Supersole 2.0 bottoms, and shined them up with some Kiwi Cordovan and I am not ashamed to say it, THEY LOK AMAZING! This job cost $88 which is STILL less than half the price of replacing them!. Totally worth it.

Challenge: Major Campfire Toe Melt!

Maybe you've been here before: Kicking back on a cool night in front of a crackling fire, hanging out with some friends, maybe looking up at the stars, maybe enjoying a beverage, MAYBE not noticing that your shoes have OVERheated  just a bit! That's what happened here.! $200+ Red Wing boots with plastic Boot Bumpers attached to the toes, all quite melted! Notice the leaves embedded in the melted rubber!

Our Task: Get things as close to original as possible. Stay tuned for the results.

Shop Employee brings his band to the shop!

The Shoehorns, of which our employee Matt Jopson is the lead singer, did a special show at the shop this Saturday night. Good times were had by all.

The First Friday AMAZING RACE strikes again @ Xenia Shoe. This time participants had to lace up a pair of Red Wing 435s (a nice wider fitting boot BTW) with a pair of oven mitts on their hands. This was our last First Friday for 2011, so check it out next April! Thanks to all who participated and made it fun!

Kind words from Bucks Braun

How about these kind words from one of our customers, Bucks Braun, after purchasing some new Brooks Adrenaline Running Shoes:
"I've done 10 miles over 2 days in my new Brooks shoes that you helped me select. It's been 7 years since I ran regularly, and it's like I rolled back my age 20 years. Perfect!"
