21.01.2022 Sometimes all it takes to feel a bit better about life is a random cat photo. #catinabox #bengalcat #boxaroundacat #catdad

19.01.2022 You can read our thoughts and viewpoints in GQ. Check out the article below for some of my thoughts about the wonderful world of shoes and cobblering! https://www.gq.com.au//n/b0b92745cbd1032dde0f9996bcc987cf

18.01.2022 Sometimes you just have to go the extra mile to deliver a really good result. This person had had their boots repaired elsewhere. Unfortunately, the glued soles quickly came apart and all the polish faded. We decided to do a full resole and stitch the sole onto the boot so there was no way it would come apart. We resprayed the upper and sealed the surface to ensure it would withstand the elements. Along with a lot of other tweaks we got them looking better than new. Come and see us today to see how we can help you.

17.01.2022 Protect your investment and get the most use out of your shoes. These Loub’s have had a rubber mirror sole fitted so you have increased grip on the sole and it is red all the way through. This solves the problem of scuffing up the original red sole, making them look messy. For this and more come visit us and explore our range.

15.01.2022 When you need more traction than a normal sole can provide, the Dr.Sole raw cord sole will meet the demands of all you can throw at it. Featuring wet weather grip lugs and a thick toe area, these soles are suited to any environ whilst still having a dress sole edge silhouette. Come and see us today to discover our full range. @dr_sole_originals #drsoleoriginals #rmwiiliams #rmwilliamsrepair #baxterandblack #shoerepairsydney

14.01.2022 Some of our treasured wares. Hand crafted shoe shine brushes in Horse hair and Goat hair from Mails Shoe Care. Kangaroo solid leather belts from James B Young. Come in store and explore our range. @mailsshoecarecompany @jamesb.young #shoecare #leathergoods #baxterandblack #handcrafted #shoerepair #shoerepairsydney

14.01.2022 Visvim moccasin shoes recraft. The old wedge material had rotted out and the client wanted to keep the original vibram outsole. Some careful moulding of the replacement wedge and the right fitting last inside the shoe enabled us to retain the shape of the shoe and the soft curves in the wedge around the instep. @visvimwmv #moccasinshoes #visvimjapan #baxterandblack

10.01.2022 A bit of an upgrade in protecting the base of these cordovan Alden plain toes. Matching up the crespino rubber with a triumph toe plate is a perfect combination. #aldenarmy #aldenofcarmel #aldencordovan #cordovanshoes #toeplates #baxterandblack #shoerepairsydney

10.01.2022 Can't talk right now. Busy stitching. If you haven't already had your RM’s repaired by us the answer is Yes! We do replace gusset elastic. With the old thread unpicked we stitch the new elastic in place through the old stitch holes and stitch both lines of stitching. Come in today and ask us about our services. #rmboots #stitching #bestcobblerinsydney #baxter&black #busystitching

09.01.2022 All shoes great and small. Some important shoes getting a makeover. #baxterandblack #shoerepairsydney #kidsshoerepair #importantshoes

09.01.2022 Some clean flush mounted toe plates compliment the round lines of these Crockett & Jones loafers. Someone is now prepared for coffee and light walks along the promenade. Toe plates help you from kicking through the toe of the leather sole, thus prolonging the life of the leather sole. Come in and see us today about what we can do for you. @crockettandjones_official #suedehead #loaferlife #toeplates #toeplateswag #baxterandblack

08.01.2022 When you want to look your best for the next rodeo. @jr_1871 #cowboyboots #urbancowboy #jrleather #bootlife #dailyboots #baxterandblack #bootrepairsydney

07.01.2022 Thankfully didn't sneeze, fart, cough when doing the blind stitch knife cut. The pain of a knife slip is everlasting. And late at night, you can hear the mournful cry of many a cobbler who slips. @jr_1871 #truestorybro #inknifewetrust #dontblink #jrsole #blindstitch

06.01.2022 Get the most out of your GUIDI boots by having the Vibram sole protectors professionally fitted at Baxter & Black. We can fit them same day and we don't use yellow glue that mars the clean look. Come and visit us today to discover more. #guidiboots #guidicommunity #guidivibramsoles #baxterandblack #guidibootslove

06.01.2022 Not to alarm anyone. But it's time to start thinking about what we will all be wearing for Christmas. Because it is sneaking up very fast. If you need runner tips on your heel or a rubber red gloss sole for more grip. Now is the time to come in. #louboutinheels #redglosssole #baxterandblack #shoerepairsydney #redsoles #moregriplessslip

06.01.2022 Some stories have train robberies, international intrigue, and martinis. This story had international tradespeople, pooling their knowledge to bring about a great recraft and a few beers. We spoke to an older shoemaker in the UK about the tradition behind how vintage Florsheim shoes have a paintbrush sole. And a huge thanks to Steve @bedos_leatherworks for supplying us with the vintage metal V-Cleat that you can see on the leather heel top piece. @aaaaalbert chose to be sensi...ble and not go nail crazy on the heel, he was sorely tempted. He chose a double sole with the hard-wearing JR outsole. We also gave them a deluxe mirror shine. We will be doing a larger blog post on our website about this soon. If you have any shoes or boots you want to recraft, get in touch with at Baxter & Black. #florsheimimperial #vintageflorsheimimperials #florsheimshoes #highshineshoes #vcleat #vintageshoes #baxterandblack See more

05.01.2022 Workshop snapshot. JR dovetail heels, Blackbird brass nails, and Saphir cremes. Making these cordovan Crockett & Jones shoes look great! @jr_1871 @tacks.nails @crockettandjones_official #brasstacks #jrleather #crockettandjones #baxterandblack

05.01.2022 You don't need to break up with your favorite sneakers. With a range of soling options exclusively for sneakers we can get them back on the court. @dsquared2cn @margomsoles #baxterandblack #sneakerrecraftsydney #sneakerrecrafting #sneakerlife

04.01.2022 Bag relining means you get to keep your favorite bag and it gets an internal refresh. With this Jean-Paul Gaultier bag the original moire silk lining had frayed and gathered detritus over time. Replacing the moire silk with a neutral colored canvas means the bag looks a lot cleaner and the canvas will handle a lot more abuse. The original internal pocket zip and JPG logo were fitted into the new lining to retain the character of the bag. Refresh your bags instead of bining them. #baxterandblack #bagrepair #bagrepairshop #jeanpaulgaultier #bagworks #bagspa

04.01.2022 Get your kicks back in action. When things start to come apart we can bring it all back together. We also specialize in sneaker cleaning and restoration. Come and hit us up. #pharrellwilliams #icecreamsneakers #baxterandblack #sneakerrepair #sneakerrepairsydney

03.01.2022 Hitting a home run with the off-white wedge soles from Dr.Sole on these Red Wings. Recorked and fitted with a new midsole before being welt stitched back together. Looking crisp and ready to conquer @dr_sole_originals @redwingheritage #baxterandblack #redwingrepair #redwingrepairshop #bootrepairshop #bootlife #redingboots

02.01.2022 A little bit of grip goes a long way to diverting potential catastrophe. A rubber oversole on leather soled shoes means the benefits of more grip. And once you wear down the rubber you can replace it, leaving the original leather sole in good condition. The added bonus of flush mounted toe plates means that the major wear point is protected. #rmwilliams #rmwilliamsboots #flushmountedtoeplates #rubbersolenoslip #baxterandblack #baxterandblackrmrepair #shoerepairsydney

01.01.2022 Get prepared and maintain your shoes. Part of a good maintenance program starts with a Water Proofing spray, shoe trees to keep the shape of your shoes when you aren't wearing them, and (for heavier leathers) a quality boot grease to deeply nourish the leather. All available in store or online (excluding the Water proofer as we cannot ship it).

01.01.2022 Until the 20th of Nov we will be offering a combo discount. Come in store with your shoes or boots and get a rubber overlay sole (Topy) and a heel rubber fitted at the same time and we will give you $10 off the total price. Protect your shoes and boots from wearing out and get the benefit of anti-slip rubber on the sole and heel.
