Best Foot Forward was founded in 1985 by master craftsman Wilfred Lopez, who learned the art of leather working and shoe repair from his father and grandfather. What began as a small repair shop has grown into Alexandria's most trusted destination for all leather care and repair needs.

Our philosophy is simple: we believe quality leather goods are an investment, and proper care and maintenance will ensure they last for generations. We have built our reputation on exceptional craftsmanship, personalized service, and attention to detail.

Today, our team of skilled artisans continues this tradition of excellence, combining time-honored techniques with modern innovations to provide the highest quality repairs and custom leather goods.
