resoling pleaser boots


Recommended Posts


Your local shoe repairer should be able to. My local shoe repairer had resoled some of mine in leather instead of the original plastic sole. It was a big improvment in comfort and walkability.

Shafted, the boots that is! View my gallery here http://www.hhplace.o...afteds-gallery/ or view my heeling thread here http://www.hhplace.org/topic/3850-new-pair-of-boots-starts-me-serious-street-heeling/ - Pm me if you want fashion advice or just need someone to talk to.

I doubt you'd get new thigh boots for the same price as resoling, unless the cost of repair is extortionate in your area. How bad are the splits? Do the shoes need anything more than a new sole to cover them or do the splits themselves need attention? You can get replacement rubber soles for a few pounds and stick them on for yourself if your repairer would charge too much!

I've had several pair of my thigh boots resoled by a cobbler with a rubber like compound (Vibram?) and it makes them much easier to walk in because of the better adhesion. I also had him make the sole a little wider than the original because the ball of my foot had stretched the boot a little past the original sole. I am wondering what you did the the boots to cause the sole to split?

I dream of a world where chickens can cross roads without having their motives questioned.
