      @Megatron1505:

      Currently requesting quotes from the cream of UK cobblers, and boot restorers to do something with my Whites SD's. I have sent an email to the 10 most highly recommended cobblers in the UK, with pics of my boots, and pics of what I want doing to them, interested to see what they come back with.

      Failing that, I'll just ship them to Whites, have my arm ripped off by the postage costs and customs, but enjoy a great quality, relatively cheap resole  😠

      So waiting for the results…

        Probably going to have to give it a couple of days, one of the guys over on SUFU (who is pretty knowledgable in shoe/ boot matters), thinks that White's stitch down construction method will most likely be alien to UK cobblers  😠

            Taylormadeshoes, of Marleybone London are first to respond. They say that they can do the work, it would cost £115, and take 2 weeks. I have asked for them to be clear about what exactly is included for the price.

                Double leather midsole, with a Vibram composition half sole. I didn't think that price was too bad  😶

                  when it comes to re-soling a pair of white's (or other dope boots besides rw) I quite dunno about the price, but I thought ~130€ was a bit much, but if you say it's cool then it's cool…

                  sounds nice what you've planned...waiting on the outcome!

                      Twigg shoes have come back with £55, although I have sent them further images to be sure they know exactly what I am asking for.

                                    who made them btw?
