Italiano Made Can Repair your Sneakers, Trainers, Runners, Kicks.
Whether they help you crush your first 10K or keep you looking stylish and feeling comfy at work or out on the town, sneakers are the greatest. From childhood and far into adulting, it’s our tennies that give us the ability to frolic in the playgrounds of life. And when you find a perfect pair of squeaks, they should last a long, long time.
Unfortunately, sneakers age. The soles can pull apart, the mesh and fabrics can wear down or tear, and inevitably, they get super dirty. We heard that the cool kids refer to these sad and worn-down kicks as “beaters” and “biscuits”. But don’t give up on your favourites just yet! We can Fix it for you.

The Anatomy of a Sneakers. Trainers. Runners.
When our cobblers approach a flat, wedge, or sandal repair project, we focus on structural preservation. There are 11 primary areas of concern when we evaluate any damage:
Sneaker Cleaning & Refinishing
We can clean, re-white, and re-dye the sneakers leather finish and clean the fabric.
We’ll also add color when needed so your sneaks look refinished, refreshed, and ready to rock & run once again
Sneaker Sole Repair & Re-Gluing
When the sole peels apart from your sneaker upper (top of the shoe), it’s time to send them off for repair!
All sneakers have complex molded soles, and they are strictly cemented on with no nails or stitching to reinforce them, so it’s important to re-attach the soles correctly.
We’ll carefully re-glue the existing soles and edges to make sure you get a long life out of your beloved runners
Custom Sneaker Repairs
Along with repairing eyelets, seam-stitching, patching, and replacing velcro, we can also reline counter pockets in the heel areas and repair torn mesh on your sneakers.
Our cobblers can also provide shoe stretching if your shoes feel too snug. We can also install a brand insoles—unwrinkled and fresh—inside your sneakers that will provide both extra comfort and a crisp, clean new smell. Additionally, we can replace the heel liner at the back of your shoe to ensure you have just the right amount of cushioning.
