In my way of thinking, if I spend many hundreds of dollars on a pair of shoes I want them for a while and paying to have them re-soled is cheaper than buying a new pair.

Haven't any of you ever gone to a shoe repair to have your hockey gloves re-palmed, or have a leather bag, briefcase repaired? Strange.
This is the thing. I dont have expensive shows, but I've had a show repair store repair anything leather, particularly my soccer shoes.

But I dont think I've ever spend more than $10 on a repair. I dont get how they make money.
