Family-owned mainstay selling quality shoes in an old-school space with the shoe repair Indianapolis depends on.

We have a history with leather.

With more than 52 years of experience, Cento Shoes is a family-owned business that delivers authentic customer service to those who value and invest in their footwear and leather goods. After repairing soles for Pope Pius XII and making custom shoes for Italian actress, Sophia Loren, Paul Cento moved his practice from Italy to Indianapolis in 1971. By treating his customers like family and providing them with quality craftsmanship, he created a thriving business teaching his two sons, Tony and Mike Cento, along the way. Whether you're looking to repair the heel on your favorite pair of shoes or replace the zipper on a well-worn jacket or purse, we've got you covered. Our store also carries quality shoes and we do special orders. Cento Shoes is the cobbler Indianapolis has trusted for over half a century.

Cento Shoes is what I would call a one stop shop , not only can you visit the store for a quick shoe repair, but also find a nice outfit for your next night on the town or just stop for a quick shoe shine. The customer service is set apart from any other that I have seen in the past. I would refer Cento Shoes to anyone. So remember the next time you need something in a hurry, try giving them a visit. You might be surprised at the quality of service that you receive from this small, but mighty, Mom and Pop Shoe Store.
