I'm in Bob's shop frequently and can tell you he repairs everything made of or partly made of leather. Believe me, people come from all over Cape Cod to have their favorite shoes or whatever repaired. Bob has the skills and the machines to do his work and his lovely wife Cathy to keep him organized!

I couldn't have imagined a better job in the Russell Boots restoration. Someone asked if I had bought new boots! Thank you, Bob and Cathy. I'm very pleased.

We are very fortunate to live very near Bob's shop. He has repaired many shoes for us with remarkable results. We highly recommend Bob for all your leather repairs and while you are there check out Cathy's beautiful oil cloth designs!

I had a pair of black formal heels that had been in the back of my closet due to some minor disrepair. The tips were worn down, but the rest of the shoe was in good condition. As these were a favorite pair, I couldn't bring myself to get rid of them simply because the tips were in bad shape. After I heard about Bass River Shoe Repair, I decided to send in my shoes. After Mr. Hagopian finished with them, they looked brand new. I will continue to send my shoes and other leather products to Mr. Hagopian in the future. His work is first-class.

I received a nice black leather purse from my parents as a gift. It has a beautiful monogram with my initials on it. I carry it all Fall and Winter so it gets quite a bit of use. The handles were thin and worn and I hated to get rid of the purse! So I had put duct tape on the handles and black electrical tape over the worn spots!!! Tacky, huh??? Yes, but I was desperate to keep the purse!!!
THEN is discovered Bob Hagopian and Bass River Shoe Repair in MA!!! Wow!! Bob beautifully repaired the handles on the purse with complete new ones that match the leather perfectly. The stitching is excellent!! I am SO VERY pleased with the results! Bob also repaired some other ripped areas and it is as if I have a new purse!! I am very pleased with his workmanship and I now have a beautiful purse that will last many more years!!!
I HIGHLY recommend his work to you!!!

Bob Hagopian repaired the straps of my favorite leather pocketbook. I thought I was going to have to buy another one, but he was able to make it look fantastic! He was able to repair my 85 year-old friend's favorite black shoes. My husband was going to throw out his worn-out Birkenstock sandals, and he was even embarrassed to show them to Bob! But Bob graciously said he'd try to repair them, which he did! It was an amazing job! Not only is Bob a skilled cobbler; he is kind, patient and a man of integrity.
