When it comes to extending the life of your sneakers, resoling is often overlooked as a viable option. However, by combining traditional craftsmanship typically used in bootmaking, your Nikes can continue to be resoled year after year.
Understanding the Resoling Process
Adding a custom sneaker resole, which includes a welt and a midsole, allows you to resole your sneakers repeatedly as the soles wear down. This process not only reduces waste but also preserves the quality and comfort of your shoes.
Expertise Matters: The Role of Skilled Craftsmen
Skilled craftsmen like Brian “Brian the Bootmaker” Truong, who has worked alongside master bootmaker Ignacio “Nacho” Palacios, bring a level of expertise that ensures the resoling process is done with precision and care. Their attention to detail, from the stitches-per-inch to the sanding, results in a resoled shoe that looks rich and has a personality of its own.
