Resoling Andrews boots

[huskykev]

Have to buy a new pair anyway but just wondering is it worth resoling the old pair to keep as a spare pair? Also can anyone recommend who to resole them?

Alt-berg do an excellent re-soling job; you could ask them if they do other makes.

LSR are great. Re-sold a couple of mine as well as fixing tents and things. When I've been in they even had 2nd hand boots, to look at you'd of thought they were brand new

There's a company called 'Dickinson Shoe Services' based in an industrial unit at the top of Shields Road in Byker, in Newcastle. They have a press for Vibram soles amongst other things. I've had a pair of airstreams resoled and a pair of 25 year old leather Scapa boots resoled. They do most of the boot repairs for the bigger outdoor companies. Worth a look, it's probably where your boots will end up getting fixed, whoever you send them to...
