    boots re-soled

    Hey, any of you fine folks know where a guy can get a pair of Irish Setter/Redwing boots re-soled in Kamloops or Vancouver, or maybe in between? Love the boots but the soles are getting a little slidey.

    Thanks

    GAM in Surrey across from guildford mall is a boot and shoe repair shop

    I think there are other locations too. Look up G.A.M shoes and repair

    Marc's Footcare and Repair in Vernon does good work.

    I will look for a name but the Teck guys from Trail take them to an older cobbler in Nelson,
    same make/model as yours mostly (RedWing)
    He does a great job for what i can see and heard

    Vince De Vito, in Nelson, originally from Trail, and his son Matthew, are THE BEST, period and I know boots.

    THere's a guy on West Blvd in kerrisdale that I used and liked. I don't remember the name of the shop but you can't miss it. There's a sign out front advertising cobbler services and lawn mower sharpening.

    Vince Devitos in Nelson. I believe they are also the only certified Red Wing repair center. I sent a pair of kenetreks to them for an resoling, great service.
