loverleather Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 A friend of mine has an older pair of Pleaser Legend THB that the heel tips need replaced, I told her I could fix them. What size of heel tips do I need to get them repaired properly? Any help will be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll need her boots to get the rubber size. I have tons of tips and replace often. Did a tutorial a little while ago on resizing the pin diameter with a house hold drill, shipping tape and a dremel moto tool with a cut off tip. Biggest issue is pulling theold tip without breaking it. Redrilling tge hole is next to impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba136 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Why not just carry them to a shoe repair shop and have the tips replaced by the cobbler? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should not be more than $5 or $ 6 at the most. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
