Resole America: Reviews?

Hello, I was considering sending in a new pair of shoes to get some topy's put on. I've heard that some cobbler's do it better than others (ie sanding down so the topy is flush). From the google reviews in my area it looks like the cobblers aren't so great around here, so I was considering resole america. It looks like they charge $30 which includes shipping both ways. Anybody try them for topy's? Anybody try them for any other service? How did it go? http://www.resole.com/

I have used them for years with great success. But in the interest of full disclosure, I must also tell you that I was previously an owner (not currently though). They do the shoe repair for most of the East Coast Nordstrom stores. If you tell them specifically what you want, they will make it happen. If you are concerned, send them in and ask for John to call you.

I asked them to make sure they were topy's and not stick ons. Got this reply

"Hi- We do lots of Sole Saver work, primarily for the 15 Nordstrom stores to which we supply service. It is a similar item to the Topy, and is set flush. Sorry, no pics on this...John"

I think I'll give them a try.

cbbuff-thanks for the disclosure. I appreciate the reply!

Sole Saver is a made in Italy vibram product. My cobbler uses it an I have no complaints.

Just got my Cole Haan bit loafers back from resole.com, this is the best shoe repair service I've ever had, and I've dealt with the big boys. The quality is absolutely outstanding.
