Everyone has heard of Freddie the Cobbler. Even Gozitans come to my shoe repair shop to avail themselves of my service! Far from simply putting on super-glue to your shoe, like most other cobblers do, I repair the shoe as it really should be repaired.

I do not simply view my work as a business, although I do spend long hours working in my shop. Rather, shoe repair is something I love doing and knowing the extent to which shoes are a basic necessity, I take my job very seriously. I have been reared into the mentality that if something is broken, one should not throw it away but rather fix it. And this is the philosophy I bring with me in my job.

Although I know the craft like the back of my hand, I always consult with my clients before making any changes to their shoe just in case they would have any particular preferences. In this way, I always keep my clients happy. I also enjoy educating my customers, giving them insight into how to better take care of their shoes to make sure that they enjoy the longest lifespan of their shoes. I do not only repair shoes but also fix bags by replacing zips and all that would be needed to restore your bag to its former condition.

At Freddie The Cobbler you are also able to buy shoes and bags as well as other leather products. I also sell hosiery, namely socks, tights, soles and any element that your feet might need to look their best while feeling comfortable.

My prices are very affordable, as my customers can vouch for. But do not take my word for it. Visit my shop in Hamrun and witness yourself the professionalism of my service and the extent to which I know the mechanics of shoes and repair. You will not be treated as simply another client but you will be heard and attended to in a way that the final product would match your expectations.
