been years since i have bought any

2017-05-11 19:46:10 UTC  

You can put whatever sole you want on them

2017-05-11 19:46:31 UTC  

I recommend vibram oil/slip resistant soles.

2017-05-11 19:47:05 UTC  

ok ill keep those in mind

2017-05-11 19:47:08 UTC  

That's my point, buy a used pair of boots for the upper, build them back up exactly as you want them

2017-05-11 19:47:24 UTC  

Vibram should have an online catalog of soles

2017-05-11 19:47:47 UTC  

Your local shoe repair guy should be able to order them. I think amazon carries some too.

2017-05-11 19:48:21 UTC  

yeah dealing with resoling shoes is new business to me haha

2017-05-11 19:48:27 UTC  

I wouldn't buy a pair of boots to wear daily that aren't Goodyear welt constructed. Look for that if you look into leather/mesh uppers

2017-05-11 19:48:28 UTC  

Vibram ok will look up

2017-05-11 19:48:34 UTC  

It's worth it tbh

2017-05-11 19:48:42 UTC  

yeah im not looking for every day wear

2017-05-11 19:48:53 UTC  

All my current boots other than my hiking boots are basically custom built

2017-05-11 19:49:00 UTC  

cool

2017-05-11 19:49:08 UTC  

ill see what i can find for breathable uppers

2017-05-11 19:49:31 UTC  

They're more expensive up front, but you can do a full resole at least 3-4 times, so it ends up being way cheaper

2017-05-11 19:49:43 UTC  

makes sense

2017-05-11 19:49:45 UTC  

Plus you get what you want

2017-05-11 19:50:21 UTC  

I went down this road years ago because I couldn't find a decent pair of motorcycle boots I could wear to the office that had oil resistant soles

2017-05-11 19:50:56 UTC  

Which is pretty much mandatory on a bike IMO. Roads have diesel all over them, especially at toll booths and stop lights.

2017-05-11 19:51:39 UTC  

i might have to find something cheaper while i plan it out and figure out exactly what im going for. on a budget and have some trips soon where i'd like something with ankle protection while hiking and scrambling

2017-05-11 19:51:42 UTC  

i hear you

2017-05-11 19:51:45 UTC  

good advice on the resoling

2017-05-11 19:53:01 UTC  

ok gotta go take care of stuff. bbl. thanks @YUGE. I'll ask Vanguard later too, he likes going on about boots too

2017-05-11 19:54:48 UTC  

Later man

2017-05-11 19:54:57 UTC  

Kenny knows boots too

2017-05-11 19:57:07 UTC  

cool. Alright, until later <:zuckheil:283797212570451968>
