SoleHeeled offers convenient and affordable Bally boot repairs by Australia’s best craftsmen, with free shipping to your door. This case study outlines how we recently repaired a customer’s Bally boots.
The boots
The elastic gussets on these Bally Scavone Chelsea boots had become stretched, leaving the boots loose around the wearer’s ankles and difficult to walk in. When the customer reached out to us for a free diagnosis/quote, we offered to remove and replace the loose elastic gussets with entirely new ones.
Elastic gusset replacement
We started off by removing the elastic gussets, carefully unstitching them and then treating the edges to remove any residue — mainly dirt and glue. We then cut a pair of high-quality elastics to match the shape of the gussets on these boots before carefully stitching them into place, along the original stitching lines.
Have a pair of Bally boots needing repair or restoration?
Our experienced craftsmen have been trusted by not only generations of Australians but also local and international brands (including Versace and Canali) with the repair and restoration of luxury designer boots since 1955. If you have a beloved pair of Bally boots in need of repair or restoration, ask us for a free diagnosis/quote by completing our online order form — where you can upload photos of the boots and let us know exactly what you would like done to them, or let us advise you on what the boots need based on the photos.
