Dear Luke George,
This is a small note to let you know how much I appreciated

Dear Melissa George,
I want to say in writing how appreciative I am of your
service in regard to a pair of Munro shoes I brought
in on December 21st. One of the shoes had a tear along
the seam and I asked if it could be repaired. You contacted
the company, asked them for a replacement pair and
gained their agreement. You contacted the company and
got a replacement pair of shoes for me. From my perspective,
you went well beyond what most people would do in response
to my request. It is a customer experience that I will
remember each time I wear that pair of shoes. I have
always been satisfied with the shoes I have purchased
or had repaired at your store. I intend to let my neighbors
know what truly quality service you provide. Thank
you.
Sincerely,
Mary R
I brought in some old Doc Marten shoes for repair a
few weeks ago, and I just wanted to say THANK YOU for
the work that you did! I took the shoes to several shoe
stores and no one would touch them. The repair job is
fantastic and I couldn’t be happier to have my
favorite shoes back!
Thanks again!

I just wanted to let you know that I received the rawhide
laces today along with the lacing needle. My moccasins
are back in business. It was a pleasure speaking to your
representative on the phone and getting the merchandise
in such a timely fashion. Thanks for a great product
and service. I will certainly do business with you in
the future and recommend you to friends and associates,
Sincerely,
Charlie M
Thanks Melissa, you have been very helpful. I will certainly
visit your store again and recommend to all I know.
You are more efficient than most stores, that’s
a fact!
Thanks again and I hope you have a good Christmas.

Great Service
George’s replaced soles and heels on my boots.
The quality of the work and the service were great. The
price was actually less than other repair shops I have
used. I recommend the.
Best place in town to get good shoes
I have bought from George’s for 5 years and counting.
They have special ordered my favorite styles and shipped
them out while away. They have great service and Ron
(owner) even fixed a rivet on my spring coat for free.
This is the place to go. Special order your shoes if
you don’t see them. Give a great business the business!

Melissa,
Hello! I spoke with you regarding a shoe horn I had ordered – it
was cracked at the bottom. You were wonderful and sent
me out a new one with a return label. Thank you for your
help! My fiancé loved the shoe horn so I am glad
you were able to help!
Thanks again!

Melissa,
Thank you for the help when I bought my new Ecco shoes
yesterday – I hope they line up to the hype I
have been hearing! If so, I’ll be back for another
pair. I hope to be in again soon!

A Foot above the Competition
I’m on my feet a lot, so it’s important that
I have comfortable shoes. I also want my shoes to last
for a long time so I take them to George’s to have
non-slip soles added, or to have them make repairs and
help keep my shoes looking new.

Hi Ron,
You did another exceptional job turning an utterly boring
pair of weejuns into a snappy, snazzy pair of low-vamp
loafers. The proportions are exactly as I requested.
They look and wear great.
Thank you as always!

Ron and team,
This past summer you helped me by dying a pair of beautiful
Kate Spade
white satin shoes to a rich cobalt blue for my wedding. They
turned out
so beautifully, and I received so many compliments on
them at my
wedding, I wanted to make sure to properly thank you
for your efforts.
I'm attaching three photos for you to see how they looked. You
also
have my permission to use these photos for any prospective
customers
who are looking for this type of service.
Thank you for your professionalism, attention to detail
and helping me
bring to life the vision I had for my wedding day!
Sincerely,
Elena G
Hello,

Excellent customer service!
Thanks,

The only reason I ever go to Arden Hills is for George's
Shoes. This little store tucked away in a strip
mall on Lexington Avenue is an absolute life-saver. I
took my mother shoe shopping three times while she was
in town and this was the only place that could begin
to fit her foot. Shoe shopping with my mother is
one of the early trails to Sainthood. She puts
her companions and the sales people through the ringer
while she sits imperiously pointing at impossible shoes.
Every shoe must be scrutinized heavily before facing
nevitable rejection as being too high, too narrow, too "fifties," too
expensive, not the right color or some other problem. The
sales girl, who is the daughter of the owner worked valiantly
and steadily for more than an hour and finally, finally
sold my mother a pair of shoes. She never complained. She
never attempted to go on break or trick her co-worker
into waiting on my mother. She was a trooper. I've
bought shoes from George before and though they don't
carry a lot of my favorite brands I think after this
experience, I am a customer for life.

Dear Melissa,

kind support.
Thank you,

I just thought I’d thank you guys with a quick
email to say that I have received my order.
Thank you so much for sending the reptile conditioner
to me. The product is amazing, and the python skin on
my bags looks glossy and almost brand new again. Excellent
product!
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Alexis J
Thank you for another great shopping experience with you. Carefully wrapped and shipped order arrived yesterday. Your prompt attention to every detail, especially customer service, makes it a pleasure to shop with your company.

When you walk into George’s, you smell leather. You see pictures of the George’s and old family photos. You feel the love. How could you not trust this family with your shoes.
To all at George’s Shoes,
Thank you so much for the fast delivery and quality product.
I also enjoyed reading the booklet about the family business.
Sincerely,
Pat S
