Cobbler in Thurles or Clonmel

Purple Mountain

Hi all.
I will have reason to be in the above towns in the next few weeks.
Does anyone know of a cobbler in either town?
Specifically I'm wondering if the following is possible: I have a pair of strapped sandals, the strap bring made of material, not leather.
The strap could do with a tightening of approximately an inch.
Are cobblers equipped to do this?
TIA.

There’s a great guy in Clonmel. He’s on Mary Street near car park entrance. If he cannot help, there are two clothes alterations nearby.

There used to be one just there in Clonmel. Not sure he's still there though, I usually just pass the place without even looking. I'll confirm later on in the week if I'm up that way.

Thanks! Just crossed my mind..
Would that be the type of thing Zipyard does?
I just don't know if cobblers have the equipment to put a stitch in shoes?

I don't know names of streets in Clonmel?
Is that the street with all the charity shops and the shop with debs type dresses?

It is, but I think that debs dress shop is now a charity shop too!
