The boots

These Dan Post Milwaukee boots were in great shape, but the soles and heels were in need of replacement. When the customer reached out to us for a free diagnosis/quote, we offered to perform a full resole, replacing the heel caps and soles along the entire length of each boot.

Full resole

The first step was to detach the heel stacks from the soles, and then unstitch the soles from the uppers.

Once the worn cork layers (between the outer soles and inner footbeds) had been replaced, we stitched into place a new pair of full-length leather soles before trimming and finishing the edges. We then stained the surface of the soles, for enhanced protection, and installed the original leather heel blocks alongside a new pair of durable rubber heel caps.
