Greetings from Hontanas! I’m in need of some simple machine stitching on my Oboz. Hiking boot. Any suggestions for a shoe repair shop in Leon…or in any town between Hontanas and Leon? Appreciate any information!

The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Thank you - looks like at least one shop is open Saturday. A good incentive to get going early. That, and the heat!
Buen Camino!

I had great success in Leon with getting my boot stitched up!! Rapidito at Plaza de Immaculada 1 had my boot stitched up in an hour. Great little (and busy) shoe repair shop not too far from the city center - maybe 15 minutes. Buen Camino to all walking, and/or contemplating!!
