Meet your craftsman
A lifetime of craft.
A neighborhood workshop.
Oltar brings more than 40 years of shoe repair experience to Coast to Coast. After working at Resole America, he opened his own independent shop here in Gainesville.
It’s a personal approach to an enduring craft: understand the pair, talk through the options, and help you keep wearing what you love.
From worn to wearable
A simple place to start.
Let’s see the wear.
Bring both shoes or boots. Tell us what has changed and how you use them. For sole lifts, bring the specifications you want to discuss.
Understand your options.
Oltar can assess the footwear and discuss suitable work, materials, cost, and timing before you decide.
Make room for more miles.
Confirm the work and collection details with the shop, then look forward to putting a familiar pair back into your routine.
Good questions
Before you
bring them in.
A little knowledge makes the next step easier. Here are the questions we can help you work through.
Can my shoes be resoled?
That depends on the construction and condition of the pair. The upper, existing sole, and how the parts are joined all matter. Bring both shoes so Oltar can inspect them and explain the options.
Do you make lifts for shoes and boots?
Yes. Coast to Coast offers shoe and boot sole lifts, including work for customers with disabilities. Bring the footwear and the measurements or written specifications you want Oltar to review. The possible build depends on the pair.
How much will my repair cost?
The price depends on the footwear, materials, and work involved. Ask for a pair-specific estimate after inspection. A photograph or description can start the conversation, but it may not be enough for a final quote.
How long will the repair take?
Timing depends on the repair, material availability, and current workshop schedule. Let Oltar know about any important date and confirm the expected pickup time before leaving your pair.
