[mpukas]

That's impressive work - surprising that you could anything with them at all.

Can you do my White's in 50 years?

Definitely!

Thank you. As long as the upper is taken care, any pair of boots can be given a new life.

Alden resole with a Curved Heel By Role Club

[Cucoo]

Has anyone ever resoled one of the Redwing Crepe Wedge Sole engineers with a neopren cord a la 2268 and maybe even made pics of the result?

Not exactly the resole you're mentioning, but i think these RW2991 in the top post look great after the resole job https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=74.msg333551#msg333551

[Cucoo]

Yeah, they are nice, but the 2991 already has a heel when bought new Thing is, I like the color (and evo potential) of the 9027 (crepe sole engineer in Hawthorne beige leather), but I like the 50s style sole/heel of the 2268 a lot better. Well, I think I'll just send them in for resoling some day. I was just curious if someone had done the same already and cared to share pics.

Fab job Brian!

Btw, any Dayton "boot job" u can post? I'm thinking of resoling my "Milkman" Driver to a Munsoon last w/ deconstructed or partially constructed toes__ is that doable?

[BrianTheBootmaker]

Yes I can relast a pair of boots on another last. I can remove the celastic too.

Here are a picture of some Dayton engineer boots I Relasted on my flat toe last and tightened the shaft.

Recently came across a couple BrianTheBootmaker posts on the instagram popular page.  Not sure if it's Instagram judging my interests, and trying to show me content that's applicable to me or he's just made the social media big time (or maybe a glitch).  Either way - happy to see it there!

Pepper I think they started catering to each individual user's interests. I thik they may also throw in some random mega-liked posts as well.
