About Star Shoe Service
We've been in the shoe and boot business for decades, with our heritage in the industry dating back several generations. Born in 1896 Garabed Rastian (2nd. generation) after learning the trade from his father became a true "Old World" Master Cobbler. Tragically Garabed was orphaned at a young age, due to the Armenian Genocide that began in 1915. He would later grow up to learn the trade of Boot Making and becoming a Master Cobbler.
In 1966 Haciadur "Chris" Rastian (3rd. generation) decided to migrate his family to the "Promise Land" the United States of America. He attended night adult school to learn the English language and worked "odd and end jobs" during the day. With hard work, loyalty, and dedication Chris a Master European Craftsman established Star Shoe Service in Los Angeles, California. Chris now has over 70 years of experience as a Master Cobbler, and Shoe Retailer.
In more recent years, Mike Rastian (4th. generation) who as a young boy after school would help his father shining shoes, making local deliveries and running the the cash register. Mike now, with his technological knowledge along with being fortunate to have learned the trade along the years, followed his fathers steps. He currently has over 35 years of experience in both Repair and Retail Sales. He is the current President of Star Shoe Service in Los Angeles, as well as the President & Founder of GotBootsOnline.com.
"We've been providing quality Workmanship as well as Excellence in Customer Service with a smile since 1971, and we're doing our best to keep the dying art of Shoe Repair along with our legacy of family Heritage alive"
