We would love to introduce you to our rebranded shoe repair & modification shop, Sole Crafters by Canadian Footwear!

Located in our flagship location at 128 Adelaide Street, Winnipeg, Manitoba.

Meet the team!

Mark joined the Canadian Footwear retail team in 2009 and began to pursue his career as a Footwear Modification Specialist in 2013. His specialties include providing internal support to shoes and insoles, and repairing/modifying custom made orthotics. Mark has the expertise to resole your footwear, convert your lace up shoes to Velcro fasteners, change the colour of your shoes, and almost anything else you could dream of! On top of all that, Mark is a professional street dancer known as Daddy GoodFunk.

Vince, a Winnipeg local, discovered his love for shoes as a kid. From fixing basketball shoes to becoming a shoe repair apprentice at Canadian Footwear, he hopes to continue mastering his craft. Thanks to his days spent breaking, collecting, and repairing vintage clothing, Vince understands the importance of durable, comfortable, and quality fashion. He is trained in polishing, painting, cleaning, repairing holes, adjusting sizes, reconstructing straps and lace holes, and adjusting shoes for orthopedic needs. He is committed to helping his clients feel confident in their footwear. At Sole Crafters, Vince isn't just fixing shoes; he's on a lifelong journey to make every step comfortable and stylish.
