Gairdner Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Hi, As mentioned in my intro post, I am having a pair of William Lennon 78PTC boots made. The soles are brass screwed and stitched triple leather and unlike some of the Goodyear-welted Northampton makers, Lennons have no problem using rubber sole tops on their leather sole with its thicker, tougher stitching and brass screws. Some of the sole rubber they use is a little thin for me as I'm 20 st and naturally hard on footwear in general. I have purchased 10mm studded Dainite heels and five pairs (min. quantity) of Indiana 333 Montana half soles from Leather and Grindery to send them which they are more than happy to fit. Did I do well or have I made a blunder? I fully realise that I should have joined here first then asked the question later but life often ends up arse for elbow, doesn't it? Having the five pairs doesn't bother me because if they're any good, they'll get used up over time. I suppose I can always return my order if the consensus points to an error on my part? Thanks in advance, folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast Fix Elgin Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 sounds like a good choice, just take care that the level of the shoe is not compromised Well done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
