Skirted-UK Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I have a pair of favourite 3" stiletto heel court shoes which I bought from HayWay Shoes some years ago. I wear these shoes out a lot because they are already scuffed and worn, I have re-soled them with Woolworth's stick-on soles and I have lost count of the number of times I have replaced the heel tips. In the pre Internet days I used to use a pair of the wife's old shoes, put my worn heel tips in them and take them to the shoe repairers to have new heel tips fitted, then I would take out the new tips when I got home and fit them in my heels. All this palaver just because I didn't want to take a pair of size 11 stiletto court shoes to my local shoe repairer. Now that the heel tips need replacing again I thought I would look on the Internet for a supplier of heel tips and I found this site in Germany. REPLACEMENT HEEL TIPS LADIES SHOES TOP LIFT STIFTFLECKEN ABSATZREPARATUR SCHUSTERBEDARF This company will supply a range of heel tips for ladies shoes if any of you need to replace your heel tips and don't fancy taking them to the local shoe repairer.
