B.Nelson does a great job

I've gotten all-rubber lifts replaced for $25, so I am guessing a dovetail heel lift would cost about this at the same place.

Still a far cry from the $10 KObalto was referring to. I think it was Angelo's that was charging $30 for a regular dovetail heel and $40 for a JR dovetail heel. I have not had only the heels replaced for a while.

Are you guys made of money?

What the **** is wrong with putting these on your heels?

When they wear out, after about 8 full day wears, you replace them.

this is exactly what b. nelson recommends for the heels... why so aggressive?

If you got a new couch, would you just leave the plastic coating on and replace that as it wears out?

I'm advocating for rubber heel taps not against them.

Bad analogy IMO.

Just got my AE Polos back from B.Nelson and couldn't be happier. See my post in the AE Appreciation thread here:

Nick's a great guy to deal with and took a good amount of time talking with me and answering questions I had about these and other shoes.

I bought a new pair of Ralph Lauren by Edward Green shoes recently and decided to have Nick install the flush metal toe caps. I'm from the SF Bay Area and have to mail my shoes to him. I went to his website and printed out the Priority Mail Label and put it on my box.

As I went to mail the package, something daunted on me. I wasn't sure if Priority Mail can be tracked or if it was insured. So, to be safe, I just mailed it via UPS insured with tracking number.

To those who are not near Nick and have to mail your shoes to him, are you guys just using his Priority mailing label and sending in your shoes like that?

priority mail can be tracked and is insured for up to $100. you can add extra insurance.

Just wanted to give Nick some well deserved credit. These were ready for the bin, but nick successfully gave new life to old friends.

Excellent work! Just like mine, they're almost too pretty to walk on! It was said to see those beautiful JR soles get scratched up on concrete, but that's what they're there for!

I did not take pictures, but a while back Nick resoled my RL cordovan tassels, the work was fantastic on those as well. James, I still cringe when wearing in new soles.

Monty, B.Nelson has pricing on their website. I had alot of work done here that is not shown (interior), so I would like not to disclose the price I paid. I will say, I found it to be reasonable and I am very happy with the work done.

Excellent rug.

 

[SkinnyGoomba]

Thanks PB.

I would like channeled soles on my resoles from B Nelson too but the $50 upcharge isn't worth it to me.
