afaik they're a storm welt so can be resoled.
Ok, cheers for reply. How do I know if storm welt? Mine are from a few years back now, it's the foam sole version
This is a good summary https://www.heddels.com/2014/04/know-welts-common-boot-welts/ but let's be real take 'em to a cobbler bro
Cheers for the link man, Yea will definitely take to the cobbler. Just need to get an idea of what kinda sole to replace it with I guess, coz it's a pretty slim boot so nothing too chunky but still needs to be military style just with proper grips.
Will have a look around and see

Update- took em to a local cobbler and Timpsons, both said no to a re-sole. Anyone know any shoe repair online places worth a look?

Daft question but do you untie your laces each time you take the shoe off?
I had a pair that done this at the heel but it was because I never untied the lace I just thew my foot in there and eventually it all ripped.
I've bought other pairs since and its never happened to me since I started to untie my laces.
Anyone ever added grips to CP military boots? Or replaced sole altogether?

I messaged this fella about getting my Virgil’s resoled and he was helpful enough, if you look at his work he seems fairly clued up so I’d imagine if it’s possible he would be able to. Probably won’t be cheap though

Bought some achilles about 3 years ago and they are knackered now, the upper by the ankle has ripped down to the midsole. No proof of purchase as ebay job - does anyone have any experience about sending them in to common projects for a repair/replacement?
