Hi all,
Back for more advice
I have 2 pairs of nearly new unused but older army boots.
1 pair are Austrian Edleweiss and the other are German Para (mk4 or 5 cannot remember) boots.
Both super comfy and I love them to bits.
Problem I see though is that I'll get through the original provided soles quite quickly. They are made up of 3 layers. Bottom normal rubber type, middle some sort of foam and top layer could be leather.
The bottom layer I would say is approx. 1cm thick and I tend to wear the heal edges to one side quicker than the rest. So I envisage I'll reach the foam middle part at some point soon.
Anyone know of a (online or not) service to get the soles replaced with something like Vibram? Nothing against them but I think this is a bit more thank the local Timpsons can deal with.
Am looking for a good not quick economical job.
I'm only really aware of Vibram soles so if other brands are recommended then that would help me to
Thanks and cheers.
