I have really fucked the soles of my Geobaskets. Almost all the ridging has worn off across the entire sole, and I had protection put on the heels which is now peeling off. I've read about people having the entire rubber sole replaced - would it cost more than buying a new pair of Geobaskets? I feel like it's such a procedure... especially since I'm in Australia... IDK what to do with them at this point I've treated them so badly because I wear them so much

For anyone looking for a good cobbler in London, look no further than http://www.classicshoerepairs.com
They're just north of Camden and do really good work at reasonable prices. Took my Rick kicks there and they knew exactly what to do. Super solid job, including restitching and cleaning of the sole.Hi. I like your necklace. - It's actually a rape whistle, but the whistle part fell off.

Is there anything that can be done about squeaky boots? The right boot makes the loudest, most annoying squeak at every step in my office and it's awkward to say the least! Specifically they are RO creepers from 2010, anyone else have this issue and know what to do about it?Originally posted by FaustHOBBY?! HOBBY?!?!?!?!?! You are on SZ, buddy - it ain't no hobby, it's passion, religion, and unbounded cosmic love rolled into one.

are you able to tell what it is exactly that's squeaking? sometimes it's the insole (the case with some removable insoles), sometimes the outsole or something else"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."
