Dear PoP – Where Does One Get Their Shoes Resoled?

DSCN6270

“So every six months to a year, I have to buy new shoes. I hate new shoes. They hurt to break in and once they’re broken in, the soles where down. I walk everywhere. Someone reminded me of being able to resole shoes. I thought this was a great idea. So my question to the collective readership is: where might I get my shoes resoled? Can any pair be resoled or does it require it to be a higher end style? In other words, can my sale rack DSW black men’s shoes be resoled within walking distance of CH or PW metros?”

Good question. If I ever had to get my shoes repaired I’d got to the store pictured above located on U Street between 11th and 10th because, uh, well it has the greatest name ever. But for those really in the know – where’s a good spot to get your shoes repaired? I’d be curious to know of really good recommendations even if they are not in CH or PW.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
