Thought I'd share a great solution from my cobbler.
My Usoles were worn through and needed a fix. I requested heel tabs but he said, no worries I'll fix it. I had no idea what he was going to do to fix them. So I was a bit stressed out when I left them. In the end I'm very happy with the end result.

hmm seems like he took a thick rubber sole and shaped it to fit flush, not a bad idea.
I'm surprised though that the heels had worn that much compared to the sole, which looks almost like new with the drips and everything?"AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION. NOW NOW this is it people, these are the brands no one fucking knows and people are like WTF. they do everything by hand in their freaking secret basement and shit."

Most of the drips are gone.
The heel wore very quick on these. I know that I have a bit of a deviation in my outerheels, and I often have to fix these parts on any type of shoe.
But I found this solution smart, so other cobblers can try to do it this way instead of those ugly heeltabs

Sent a pair of LUC Tornadoes back to CCP about 7 weeks ago. After a year and a half of wear I had a broken zipper and the shank was poking through the leather despite good vibram resoles. They confirmed reciept of the boots via email but I haven't heard anything since.
I saw somewhere else that dji had a good experience with CCP repairing items relatively quickly. Anyone else have experience regarding what sort of time frame I should expect for the repair/return?

A friend of mine used Saphir Renovateur on his Guidis (Kangaroo) and it sort of darkened in color. He was wondering if there was anything he can do to revert this effect. Any help would be greatly appreciated, pictures provided below. First is before, last after. Photos are of the same shoe, the first is just from PNP before it was sent out to him.
