^^^ really like the roughout on those! They remind me of teddy bear material [emoji199][emoji28]

Thanks! wakka wakka wakka!

Great shoes …Im so jonzing for a pair of his engineers

Thanks! I would be too but I have brown Road Champs with a Takeshi triple leather sole and black Lofgrens so I can't justify it. If he had been around earlier I would have em… Also love his Underdogs.

I got my Alden Indy’s back from Brian yesterday..25 days from door to door. I’m really happy with the results as well.

Wow, those look amazing. Great work

@Boyo do you know if your resole is slip resistant? Need my indys resoled and the neocork is terrible and slippery.

[Boyo]

Hey @Matty123, yes I would consider the Role Club half sole to be pretty slip resistant, at least for “normal” use. It’s a hard rubber but after a few wears they scuff up and footing seems pretty secure.

This is how they look today, with a pretty solid amount of wear..

[Matty123]

Thanks Billy!

Yep. One of the reasons I hardly wear my indys…they’re like skis. Is Brian the Bootmaker the only person out there that can do a resole?

I don’t think resoling stitch down boots is a standard skill for cobblers or shoe makers anymore, but there are still many specialists who can do it.

Yeah, it's not something that some dude at the mall will do, but there are lots of decent repair shops that will be able to do a reasonable quality resole.  Call around and ask and you should be able to find a local shop.

If I do a re-sole i'll probably go with Brian, or Alden. I'd eventually like to get a lug sole or commando sole so that my boots have some sort of grip.

[Matty123]

Yeah that’s why I was wondering  about Brian’s branded soles. I’m doing a resole in the next few months. Def commando or something non slip

Just came across this video of Brian crafting an Engineer. Blown away by the craftsmanship and beauty of this Engineer.

[Crispy Heron]

I am on the horns of a dilemma. Do I pay full buck for a hand crafted pair of Engineer Boots from Brian or accept a cheaper pair from elsewhere which will be great but not as great. Thoughts?

[flannel slut]

I’ve been laboring on the same question.

[Crispy Heron]

@flannel-slut - which way are you going?
