Tucked away on Depot Place in Unionville, Dave's Shoe Repair stands as a testament to time, celebrating an impressive 56 years in business. This beloved cobbler shop is more than just a place to fix worn soles; it’s a living time capsule, where the rich aroma of leather and the rhythmic sound of skilled hands at work transport visitors to a bygone era.


Established July 1, 1968, Dave's Shoe Repair has been a cornerstone of the community, preserving the art of traditional craftsmanship in an age of fast fashion. With each stitch and polish, Dave's commitment to quality and personalized service remains unwavering, ensuring that every customer leaves with not just repaired footwear, but a piece of history. Whether you’re seeking to restore a cherished pair of shoes or simply want to step back in time, Dave's Shoe Repair offers a unique experience that embodies the heart and soul of Unionville.


When asked for his advice to other businesses on making it so long, Mr. Habeski was quick to note, "You need to enjoy what you're doing. That's part of life, you need to enjoy coming in, doing your work - I don't know what to do with myself after two or three days at home!"


Here's to 56 years of you, Dave!
