New Shoes or NuShoe?
Shoes wear out over time. That’s just a fact of life. We can treat them well and only wear our best shoes for special occasions, but no matter what we do short of having them bronzed, they will eventually wear out and need to be replaced. Well, that used to be true. Shoes will wear out, that part hasn’t changed, but they may not need to be replaced, thanks to the efforts of a company called NuShoe.com.
NuShoe takes old worn out shoes and boots and renews them. The renewing process consists of using factory quality materials to return the old shoes to a like-new condition. Instead of replacing your favorite old shoes, you can send them off to NuShoe. NuShoe will repair and renew them. Then they’ll mail them right back to your mailbox, as good as new.
NuShoe has been around since 1994 when it leapt into prominence by immediately purchasing an existing shoe repair chain called Computerized Cobbler. By 1998, NuShoe had phased out the retail shops while focusing on a mail-order business and a centralized factory in which to repair shoes from all across the country. Indeed, now NuShoe’s shoe repair and renewal services are available at more than 12,000 shoe retailers across the country, and, of course, from NuShoe.com directly via the web.
It works like this: simply log-on to the website and fill out a simple online form. Wait for a prepaid mailing pouch to arrive in your mailbox from NuShoe. Drop the shoes and a copy of the request form into the secure pouch, and drop it in the mail. In about three weeks, another mail pouch will arrive in the mail. This time it’ll contain your old shoes that have been completely renewed to your specifications.
You know the quality of NuShoe repair and renewals is top notch because among their institutional accounts is the U.S. Marine Corps. They are also the exclusive repair and warranty service program for such prestigious brands as Ecco, Mephisto, Chippewa, Birkenstock, Finn Comfort, Ariat, H.S. Trask, Altama, Neil M, and Papillio. But just because your shoe or boot brand may not be in that list, you don’t need to rule out repair and renewal of your old shoes. NuShoe repairs many other brands as well. Visit their website for more information about whiahc kinds of shoes and boots can be renewed.
It used to be that you had to buy a new pair of shoes every year or two at most, but now that NuShoe is on the job, the last pair of shoes you bought may just be the last pair of shoes you ever need to buy.
