Guess it depends if they bought it for the actual safety rating or just for that kind of shoe, but if they havent/dont need the safety rating you could just use a micro midsole or a lightweight EVA. We get some that are cut to a general size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hibsjo(SCO) Posted February 5 Report Share Posted February 5 Im not saying it cant be done but the cost of replacing sole wouldnt be far off the cost of a new pair carry on! ironplanet uk900 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jontheshoe Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 Agreed , a complete unit with mid sole could be done , but looking at 60/70£ . weve done quite a few walking boots of late using vibram units , it’s really the cost of replacing v repairing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hibsjo(SCO) Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 Id be charging £140 and putting some version of vibram on it and as i said it would lose its CE , this boot retails around £195 new the clues are there carry on!
