Claire Yan’s successful shoe repair business owes a lot to her digital marketing experience, her keen sense of customer service, and her love of quality products. That said, her deep knowledge of the craftsmanship in the luxury shoes market, which she has married to an environmental desire to reduce waste, has played a big part in her success.

The actual spark for Cobbler’s Suggest came from her failure to find a repair shop for her favourite heels – the vast wave of change that has washed over this city in the last decade put a lot of the old repair artisans out of busines. In response to this gap in the market, she founded her own and after a lot of hard work now operates a stunning nationwide business repairing luxury shoes and handbags. For the consumer the entire operation is online – Claire’s operation picks the shoes up, repairs them, and then drops them back home. Simple.
