Riebe's Shoe Repair Home

Riebe's Shoe Repair is a full-service shoe repair, supply and shine shop in downtown Boise, run by a family that has been fixing shoes in the city for more than a century. Repairs begin with an expert assessment of your footwear, which lays out the options before any work starts. The shop also sells shoe care supplies and offers shines.

The owners are nearing retirement, so hours are now very limited: the shop is open only on the first Thursday of each month, in the morning. A separate number takes calls and texts outside those hours. Bring in your favorite pair on one of those mornings and expect a brief wait for the assessment.
