There is a good cobbler in Karaoglanoglu, if you are coming from Girne, turn laft at the Edrimit turning ..the shop is about 50 to 75 meters on the right.

I totally agree with jock1. The man as described in Karaoglanoglu is absolutely wonderful. We has mended ladies and gents shoes, bags, suit cases, belts, you name it. However, I think he is still closed until 15th (?) August. When I've taken in really decent shoes to repair, he has been thrilled. I suppose these days he sees such cheap rubbish i.e. buy now, throw away next year stuff. Follow instructions as above, his tiny little workshop is next to Karaoglanoglu Muhtar office.

There is one in Girne, just after the Colony by alley of Varibank, you need to remember what bag you took then in, that's how you recognise to collect.

Definitely recommend the man in Karaoglanoglu, he is great and even makes shoes, so if it is stretching, heeling or whatever he is your man and so so cheap, saved lots of shoes for me!
