Shoes
Full soles and heels. Leather or suede reconditioning. Fabric dyeing. Stretching and fit correction — “no two feet are often the same.”
Full soles and heels. Leather and suede reconditioning. Custom-mixed dye. Bags, belts, and the occasional thing nobody else will touch.
Customers writing on Google and Yelp say they were sent here by Neiman Marcus, boutiques in Phipps Plaza, and Nordstrom’s shoe department. Trio was featured in Simply Buckhead, 2014.
Everything below is work Trio describes doing in its own words. No two jobs price the same, so nothing here carries a number — call and describe what you have.
Full soles and heels. Leather or suede reconditioning. Fabric dyeing. Stretching and fit correction — “no two feet are often the same.”
“We have been fixing and repairing bags and handles as long as we have been fixing shoes.” Handles restitched, hardware, linings.
Wallets, belts, clutches, hats. Zipper repair, damaged fabrics, stretching. Belts shortened, restored, holes punched.
“All colors have to be custom mixed.” It is slow on purpose — dye work can take up to a month.
In Trio’s own words: “we fix shoes and garments that have been over loved by pets.” Chewed heels, chewed straps, chewed everything.
“Have something out of the ordinary? … We handle all types of strange requests.” Shoeshine while you wait. Some repairs while you wait.
Anyone can make leather look new. The harder job is repairing seventy-year-old boots and leaving them looking seventy years old — the patina intact, the damage gone. That is the work Trio is known for, and it is not advertised anywhere.
Christian Louboutin repairs are done here, at this bench, rather than shipped out of state. Dye is mixed by hand to match what walks in the door.
Trio opens in Buckhead. For its first decades it is both a laundry and a shoe repair business.
The shop drops the laundry side and becomes a shoe repair shop only.
Owned and operated by the Embry family from this year on. Dave Embry brings over forty years in cobbler practice and has run multiple shops across metro Atlanta.
“TRIO Shoe Service has been in Buckhead since 1926, when it was started as a laundry and shoe repair business.”
Still on Peachtree Road. Still the Embrys. Still the same bench.
Trio ships in and out, worldwide. It is written into the shop’s own name. Box it up, call the number below, and tell them what’s coming.
Turnaround times are Trio’s own, from their FAQ. Nothing is paid for online — arrangements are made by phone.
“Excellent high end work. I have brought several things to get repaired, including two 70+ year old leather products (boots and a briefcase). They took extremely good care to repair the bad damage while keeping the aged look and even removed years of mold damage. Very impressed with their skill and care. No one I’d rather go to than Trio.”
Trio replied: “We aim to please. Thank you for your business.”
“These guys are simple the best! I’ve brought several shoes/boots to them and they have made them look like new.”
“Trio Shoe Service beautifully resurrected my main pair of shoes. Further, it completed the resurrection unnecessarily quickly, days ahead of expectation.”
“I also like the fact that they do the Christian Louboutin repairs in house because another local recommended shoe cobbler sends them to another location in NC to be repaired.”
“Trio did an awesome job repairing my Louis Vuitton bag handle, which detached and needed to be restitched. The service was fast and the price was reasonable.”
