Every time I purchase a pair of shoes I look on the bottom to see what kind of a sole they have. I like to get shoes that have a leather sole and usually the heel will be plastic or some kind of a rubber material. I find that the leather sole shoes lasts longer than rubber ones.
I repair the heel on the shoes that I get every so often because that extends the life of the shoe. When my family lived in Tujunga we took our shoes to Karo. He has since moved to Los Feliz and is working with his brother. Karl is a master shoe seamstress and he is one of those exceptionally talented individuals who is a true craftsman. If you live near the area be sure to take your leathers, shoes, purses, and other items to him and he will surprise you with his skill.
