    Not a new thing though. I've successfully used this company before to resole a pair of hiking boots ...

    They also repair other other stuff like tents, sleeping bags, rucksacks etc.

    nice find there. i need to replace the outer sole of my boots asap. anyone in ireland doing this kind of work? my soles are generic vibram types. the ones with the seam. meant to be the easiest to replace. its a straight cut off, and weld on a new one job, and i would rather not spend 50 quid+ on getting it done in england.

    I think the shop I bought my Meindls in will arrange for them to be shipped back and re-soled in the factory. Quite a few years since I bought them though so that may well have changed in the mean time.

    ok, there is a place that can resole boots in dublin. Cleggs, in rathmines is an old school family owned place that can resole vibrams. my boots are there now. be done thursday. no postage to muck around. William seems a dead-on guy. hope his helps out people needing to get their soles replaced.
    i will talk to him about doing an MCI member discount if people are interested?
