Background

Shoefix was established in 1993 in the previous Model Supermarket (now Pick'nPay) in Wernhil Park, Windhoek, but closed down after the take-over by Pick'nPay. After the refurbishment of Auas Valley in 2001, Shoefix was once again launched under a new identity in this complex, next to the furniture shop on the 1st floor. Today still you would recognise SHOEFIX by its distinctive blue and yellow colours - however, we've some new and popular lines have been added to the already popular range of products!

The business has grown since then and in 2002 another branch was opened in Windhoek in the Maerua Mall Shopping Complex.  This venture provided additional job opportunities for experienced shoe repair workers. Soon thereafter another branch was opened in the CBD of Windhoek in the well-known Gustav Voigts Centre.

2.  Shorten belts;
3.  Repair bags;
4.  Repair tears to leather articles;
5.  Webbing (Those strips attached to the famous Strops sandals).

We really hope to always do our slogan proud: we've got the experience - trust is with your shoe repairs.

Look after your shoes

Most people consciously or subconsciously judge other people by the shoes they wear - and shoes that don't look good or don't fit well, may often project a wrong image of someone!

In addition, the average person walks some 160,000 kilometres in his/her lifetime which is the equivalent of circumnavigating the world four times!  Our feet more than ever need well fitting shoes expertly constructed from the best available materials to help protect them from the excesses of our modern environment! BUT do we always buy the best shoes?  Do our soles always last that long? 

That's when a visit to Shoefix can only pay off!

 

Did you know during a normal day your feet produce over a 1/4 cup of moisture
and up to a 1/2 cup when active?
