There appears to be no price list on the site?
Thanks.
If you wear a pair until you can only just start to see through the rubber on the toe, do they still need a toe patch?Or is a toe patch only required when you started to wear through the leather/synthetic/whatever it is?Shoes always feel at their best time just before they wear the through the toe, so I would be reluctant to send the off too soon.The other reason I’m sceptical is that towards the end of their life I often tear one of the laces’ eyelets or the uppers are otherwise starting to look at bit tired. I’m not sure whether they’d last the same time again if I got them re-soled. What are people’s thoughts??

This old topic....I seem to be getting through my "resoled" pairs pretty quickly, mainly because it's what I use at TCA Prop Store, which has textured walls. This means the wear extremely quickly right under the big toe and all the other rubber is almost untouched. If you compare this to my "outdoor" shoes, they're much more even and last way longer.Reckon there's any way of doing a micro-repair on just the toe?
What's the latest beta on resoling? Got a pair of Dragons that I'd love to continue using forever but are now wearing incredibly thin. Where's the best place to get them done?
The guy who resoled at Feet First has gone. I used them for years but my mate recently got a pair done and they are ridiculous. Completely unusable.For Sheffield based peeps Northern Soles has just taken up residency next to the Foundry. Andrew has been trained in Spain and has all the gear including 200 lasts.
We were informed pre sending that they were struggling to get through the backlog and it would be about 17 weeks. I also wanted 2 pairs of boots done (one slightly niche pair of winter boots) and so though, "sod it, not in a rush". Well, 17 weeks turned into 6 months and that's apparently the current wait.Therefore, I'd say avoid for now.
They must have got someone completely untrained to do my mate’s as all of the edges had been rounded off in a massive radius. Might be ok on VDiff cracks!
