First aid for leather By Sandalman

Relined, installed new pockets and reconditioned my Joseph and Feiss International" leather jacket. Workmanship provided is superb. Price is significant but considering the quality of the work

Currently residing in S.C. with the thoughts of reviving my Midway leather jacket. I searched locally in the Columbia and Lexington areas in hopes of finding a reputable leather refurbishser to fit my request of a detailed repair and refurbishing. My searches led to a variety of sites across the states, but to no avail. A most impressive video detailed a simulation of their methods and process. This sold me on the end result I was seeking. After speaking to the owner Cory, I was confident that I had found my source with terms. The turn around on the job was also a surprise. To date, I have no regrets.

After being told by two other leather repair services that there was nothing I could do with my chair I found Cory @ Sandalman. From our first conversation I was confident and pleased that my 20 year old chair could be saved. I purchased his repair kit and along with Cory’s instructions my chair looks absolutely rejuvenated and we are more than pleased with the results. Cory, thank you!

I’ve been looking for a specialist for years to restore my wife’s Louis Vuitton bag . It was her favorite and over the years it took a beating . I wanted to surprise her for Christmas so I researched some places and came across Sandalman. Hesitant at first because I’m located in the states , I sent an inquiry with pictures and questions and the response was quick . Just so happen I had a friend visiting Toronto and she was able to drop the bag off for me. They took a look at the bag and said it could be done . I asked if it was possible to have it shipped and done by Christmas and they delivered . The bag was PERFECT!Thanks for the amazing work and customer service.

Those are before and after pictures.Ii was about 30 years ago, in Japan. I fall in love with this small trunk - is it something that children who likes stories (likeThe Chronicles of Narnia, or Earthsea!) dream about, isn't it? So I bought it with $50. It was a big money for a 13-14 years old.It came to Canada with me eventually. Still using it occasionally but the trunk was falling apart year by year. I did think to repair myself, however not confident - I handle most of natural fabrics but not leather. Instead, I asked around it there are anyone who can do and heard about Sandalman"As I showed the before picture

Recently I gave Sandalman an Italian made Shearling jacket my parents bought for me 20 years ago in Dubai. The jacket was not worn for over 20 years and its leather had dried out and was not conditioned at all during the period. The jacket sleeves were also too short for me. I spoke to Cory to have the sleeves elongated to fit me and for the jacket to be oiled and reconditioned.This was a really complex repair as the materials for making the extension to the sleeves had to use the jacket's hood. The repair work took roughly four weeks to complete and the results were excellent. Not only did the jacket fit perfectly but also the changes made modernized the jacket’s overall look and feel. Cory was great to work with and he gave honest advice throughout the process.I was very happy with the outcome and highly recommend Sandalman for any leather work or jacket repairs. Will definitely return here for future projects or to maintain any of my other leather jackets.

A+ first class service and workmanship. Cory and his team repaired and restored my 30-year old friend, a dark chocolate-coloured heavy suede leather coat that has been with me every day of every late fall and winter since I first purchased it - it looks brand new again. I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience.

Second time getting First Aid for my leather. Second time my leather has been rescued and given a new life! If you take your leather to Cory for First Aid it will be returned to you in better than perfect condition. Mine is so clean but also so, so soft! I might add that some bright paint was removed from my black leather that came back to me in richer black but so much more soft and pliable... beautiful!

Fantastic work! Cory was able to fix up the loop on an old belt for me and restore it without having to replace the whole belt. He even restitched it as a final touch. Thanks again! Finished much quicker than anticipated too!

Genius work by a generous and kind master of his craft! I came in with a somewhat odd tailoring request for a deerskin jacket and was treated with so much respect and patience, I was given multiple options for the alterations and was extremely happy with the final result! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
