I recently obtained a pair of Crockett & Jones in decent shape for $95 on ebay. I contacted Crockett & Jones to see how much it would cost to recraft them and this is the response I got:
The shoes go back to the factory in Northampton, England where they are re-lasted, re-welted, re-corked, re-soled, and re-lined. They are just like new except for the upper.
Takes about 8 - 10 weeks. REPAIR COST: Bench Grade: $210.00 Hand Grade: $220.00
I know Allen Edmonds's recrafting services are $125 or so. I'm wondering if I should spend the $210 or get a new pair of shoes.
Your thoughts??
