Crockett & Jones Resoling Pictures

Thought some of you might be interested in this.

I recently had my C&J "Audley" resoled. I was in London and dropped them off at the Burlington Arcade location (for some reason always get better service here than on Jermyn St.) and received the finished product about 5 weeks later. In total, I think it was about £100.

I've had these shoes since 2006 - they were my first "real" shoe purchase, at full retail no less, and I wore the ever living shit out of them for 4 years. They have walked through the stone streets of Buenos Aires and Rome, through the filthy streets of Shanghai and Mumbai, the snow of St. Petersburg and survived a typhoon in Hong Kong. The only continent these have not been to is Africa. So yeah, time for a resoling.

I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. I think they did a fantastic job, and I would highly recommend the service.

Yes, they were mailed. I just used trees and the occasional shine with wax I bought from C&J. In the rain and snow and it's not too slippery actually, since the soles were so well worn. After the typhoon, I let them dry out and then shined them up and you couldn't tell.

I think so. My first time doing this and I like it - It's kind of like getting a new pair of shoes, pretty fun.

no before pictures, sorry, but imagine an incredibly worn sole. I don't think they did anything to the uppers aside from a cleaning as far as I can tell.
