This is great! Just turned my 10877’s in to a local cobbler for a sole replacement. I hope what you’ve shown here is standard workmanship in the trade. Well done. What a craft!
I just got mine back from a local cobbler, but they didnt replace the midsole. I m not sure if they even have a sewing machine. How about your shoes? I m in Germany and I payed 75€.
Great job. A few questions: Is that midsole rubber or leather? Also, do you know whether Red Wing manufactures their own traction tread sole (as shown) or does Vibram make it for them? Thanks
I like the use of the rubber midsole, which is how they were originally built. I just wish they could figure out how to include a shank of some kind, for better arch support. Also, I did not know that you could buy the Red Wing Supersoles. I’ve always assumed that you had to let Red Wing do the work to get them
The Supersole® by Red Wing is a polyurethane sole. T he RW factory locks the footwear into custom machined molds, injects the liquid urethane which expands and creates a chemical bond to the thermoplastic reactive welt so they fuse together chemically creating a bond. The Red Wing company pioneered this process and patented it back in the seventies. Though the patent has most likely lapsed, the extreme cost of the custom machined molds and related processes have successfully set the company apart right up to the present day. Since it's so expensive to get this process up and running I know of no other company making boots with a fused thermoplastic Goodyear welt and PU sole. I'm a third generation shoe cobbler and maintain a physically separate shoe store where we sell Red Wing and other footwear. We've sold RW shoes for about 60-years now. Wedge soles being solid in the instep area provide the best arch support , and actually do not need any kind of shank unlike boots with breasted heels. At one time RWS sold "blocker" PU Supersoles® to RWS dealers that repaired Supersole® type boots. We still would add a bonded and sewn mid-sole to be more certain the sole's bond would hold as without the molds and injection machinery we could not achieve the same tenacious chemical bonding between PU sole and reactive welt. I respect Red Wing for still making very high quality boots in the U.S.A. They are also the only boot maker I know of that has their own leather tannery. Oh, a big reason, I believe, they are so good is that the company is still family owned. I sell many kinds of footwear and only a very select few are family owned as of today. Makes a difference.
@@wijsmancobblers1145 ,oh man thanks a lot , the problem was - I thought you are Americans,coz in one of the videos I seen an american flag,and in us segment of the internet I was looking for that glue but it is spelled different or even got a different brand name
@@TheFrontyer I appreciate the response! I have since resoled my White's Perrys to success it seems. I purchased a cobbler stand, mounted it to it, and used channellocks and a sharp knife to get almost all of it off fairly easily, and used a wood shop edge sander for the rest.

Had mine back for a couple weeks now. No new midsole, no new stitches. Nothing but a new sole glued on.
I paid $85
@@263sparky3 you don't need new stitches if he doesn't put a new midsole.
I know. That’s how I figured no new midsole. Overall happy with the job though
to add a new welt and midsole it could cost $ 200 more.
what cream did you use for the outsole?
Great job. A few questions: Is that midsole rubber or leather? Also, do you know whether Red Wing manufactures their own traction tread sole (as shown) or does Vibram make it for them? Thanks
xaerovette thanks 🙏🏻 . They are made by Vibram USA. Red Wing makes the Supersole in the factory, cast directly on the boot.
Those heaters were a new touch that I’ve seen so far… nice. Good work. Wondering on shipping to from USA?

Thanks! You can only have the Red Wing Super soles from an Authorized Red Wing Repairshop 😀😊

Good job. How much does it cost to resole a boot like this?
What glue did you use ? Thanks for video anyway.
Wakolfix Rapid is our standard gleu

Wow ... great job ! how much do you charge for this repair ? thanks
Hello! That was a traction tred sole and a new resole costs 82.50€ and we shipped them back for free in most of EU!
So good.
Hello! Is it necessary to replace the midsole when replacing the outsole? Thanks!
Not if you can remove only the outsole, which can be difficult.

I want to open a Rad Wing shoe repair shop in Thailand.
great job ... how much did it cost to change the sole of the pair of boots?

Hye,you selling outsole to??
This has to be one of the roughest resoles ive seen.
They are red wing certified . I'll have to watch more to see what is so rough about it
Muito bom!
how old are those Irish setters? my 875s look way different
According to the filling of the ball, around 2008. We dont know the exact date anymore.
@@wijsmancobblers1145 oh nice! Those look better that the newer ones
Why? It’s a boot under a buck fifty???
Red Wing Moc Toes start at 300 euro mate
