Shoe Sole Replacement | FAQS

We recommend our clients to feel the sole for “sponginess”. Apply pressure to the soles with your fingers, if the soles feel moist or give way easily it may be time for replacement. Any holes in the leather may be another sign that your soles are ready for a change. We also highly recommend sole protection to our customers as a long-term solution for preserving and protecting your leather soles.

Depending on the amount of wear and tear, it is possible that your shoes don’t need full replacement soles. This is because the main areas of wear are always concentrated at the heels and toes and the mid-sole often remains intact. Many of our clients actually choose to have half rubber or leather soles installed instead of a full sole replacements as it is a more cost-effective solution.

Please refer to our postal orders page for our price list.
