Yosemite Bum says 5 weeks after receiving shoes. 30 bucks per half sole w/free return shipping for 3+ pairs.

Call Limmer Boot in Intervale NH and ask how long it would take. Under the radar outfit that had mine done in a couple weeks last time

How are people liking the Trax XE rubber?  Yosemite Bum charges $10 extra for Vibram.

Haven’t tried trax, but it’s worth noting that 10 extra still makes them competitive with other resolers.

Positive resoles half sole + rand is 57 with vibram, while Yosemite bum is 55.

My go-to resoler now is Flophouse Resoles in JTree. Very good quality work and reasonably fast turnaround time.  Would recommend.  https://www.flophouseresoles.com/services

Try Jim at Sole Performance. He has always been a 2 day turn around for me. Obviously longer if you are shipping.

I think Positive Resoles does great customized work and they have UP rubber, but most of the time I opt for Flophouse Resoles because their turnaround time is so fast.  For standard half resoles, their quality of work is great.  Why wait 8 weeks for your shoes?

I just resoled with Crag Cobbler out of Dallas. Very communicative shop, and crazy turnaround. I shipped my shoes on Thursday of last week and got tracking info for their return yesterday—3 days of shop time. I'll update with pics and feedback once they arrive. Prices are steeper than at other shops: 48 for Vibram XS Edge on one pair of Katanas and 60 for the same on another plus toe cap repair. They're a small shop at the moment though, and with turnaround time like that I'm not complaining.

Unless you have a local resoler you can dropoff/pickup from don't bother, I just buy new shoes and don't use my "sending shoes" unless I have to, to prolong their lifespan.

hmmm... they quoted me $72 for Katanas with toe caps.

Downside of not having prices listed I guess.

Gear Room in SLC, UT: under 3 week turn around, great work on 1 pair of Scarpa Helix and 1 La Sportiva Miura. Price started around $50 ea.

They just quoted me the same ($72) for a pair of Katanas with 2 toe cap replacements.  Dropping them off to them tonight

Yosemite Bum now charges $45 for half soles, and it takes five pairs to get free return shipping.

Dave Page for climbing shoes/ boots/ approach shoes in Seattle.  Pre pandemic was about a week turnaround, but I was local.  Add shipping time to that week for an estimate of turnaround now.

Dave Page is legit. Amazing at boot repair, especially asolos.
Have yet to do rock shoes through his shop, but i'd imagine its top notch work.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
