Meindl Airstream

Apparently the Meindl Airstream has a replaceable vibram sole. Has anybody had the soles replaced on this boot and if so where did you go for the service?

A guy from Treeworker said he had the sole and rand replaced for about £60 when i bought mine, that was partly what swung me towards getting these boots, as for where...call or email them?

Treeworker replied with no service available. Does anybody know a cobbler that deals with Vibram soles?

Drew, was it worth the expense to get them resoled? I mean, are the boots still in good enough nik to justify resoling them?

tried but no joy

yeah ian, totally worthwhile. they re did the foam on the bottom and replaced with vibram soles. think it wasd about $150-180 ish..

Just got the Meindl Airstreams back fom Feet First in Chesterfield. They have had a new vibram sole and the toe area patched up. They have done an amazing job, they feel all snug and new again and look great (see pic). For £70 its well worth it. I will keep you posted as to how they stand up. From the service from Feet First i would recommend these guys 100% if you need a re sole whether walking, climbing or arborist boots. See Pic attached
