Rubber Room took a month and a half to get my shoes back to me. Rock & Resole+1. I've had too-numerous-to-count resoles done by R&R over the years and have always been pleased with the job and, very importantly, the turn around time--always less than 14 days. |

Very happy with my resole of my La Sportiva Mythos through Cascade Cobbler (Mazama, WA): cascadecobbler.com/ - I went with 4.2mm Onyx and it's been working great. I had to resole 6 months after buying the shoes because I went through a period of learning how to gently manage the feet (and therefore tore a hole in the rand doing too much foot drag). I haven't had a problem since and my shoes are bomber! |

The sole they put on my Miura was cleaner and smoother than the factory sole from LS.Sorry to resurrect this, but I haven't found any feedback on this. Have you had them do the rand on the top of the toe before? With the supermoccs gone, I've been considering sending my regular Mocs off to them to get some more rubber on top. Has anyone done something similar and how did it turn out? |

Ive had my Acopa JBs resoled 4x by rock n resole and every time I seem to like them more. |

Cascade Cobbler has done some pretty good work on my Five Ten Projects and Prisms as well as Guide Tennies. Davis Stevenson wrote: Sorry to resurrect this, but I haven't found any feedback on this.

One of my shoes turned out perfect, the other, not as perfect...learning curve. |

I've done a pair at Rock and Resole, and a pair at New England Resoul. Both were similarly good quality work. |
|
Crescent Resoler in VA resoled a pair of Cobras, a pair of Anasazi lace-ups and a pair of UFOS; all three pairs were perfect--like new, really. Flawless. |

Has anyone done something similar and how did it turn out?Rubber Room replaced my toe cap before on my miuras (the part you had in question). They charge extra, and it worked fine for that resole job. I had to retire the shoes after one more resole though. The toe cap started coming apart, and since the toe cap costs more to get done, I just retired them. You'll have to check on their prices, but it isn't cheap. I think I spent like $60 to get the toe cap replaced (total cost for the pair) with shipping. And rubber room took 6 weeks to get my shoes back. I called them after two weeks and they said they hadn't even started on mine yet due to being super busy, but would get them through... |

Any recommendations for TC Pro resoles? I've heard that they can be tricky. |

Has anyone got thier la sportiva futuras resoled?? i need to and am wondering who to go to? rock and resole is pretty convenient... |

Prodeal Resoles If you look up previous threads of Prodeal resoles, I think you'd get the wrong impression. Bennet Stricca at Prodeal has resoled 3 shoes of mine, Katanas, Testarossas, and these Anasazis. I have found that he does as good as brand new resoles at a price that beats everyone else. The pics were right after I climbed my first pitch in the shoes, so they are dusty but the workmanship and attention to detail is clear. Everytime I've had him resole shoes I've shot him an email a few weeks in and he has shipped them out within the end of the week. As climbers we are both cheap and demanding of our resoles, they don't always work out but overall resoling a pair one or two times is far cheaper than getting a brand new pair and I think you get a similar performance and lifespan out of resoled shoes. As an aside, Repeat Performance in Bend Oregon is about to begin a resoling biz, they might be looking for shoes to practice on, I'm going to check out that deal and see how it goes. #1 concern for me in resoling is the shipping price and chance of losing the shoes in shipping |

I sent my shoes to backcountry.com and they sent me back a brand new shoe. best resole ever. |
|
Just got 3 pairs back from rock and resole today. It took just over 2 weeks from when I sent them off to receiving them. They look great, and cost $40 per shoe plus shipping there. I've had shoes resoled by them before and they held up great. |

After Locker resoled mine, my shoes now send 2 number grades harder than I do! |
|
Plus one for flyin brian. |
|
I thought flying Brian's was closed up?? |
|
No he is up and running. He recently moved to another location. His website info is all up to date. Got 3 pairs done in less than a week. |
