Mister Minit has officially launched: Quality shoe for town and country. We can re sole quality footwear like RM Williams to off the shelf standard, along with repair items like new heels, elastic sides, upper repairs and much more. Check out this pair of RM Williams craftsmans. It has our popular Goodyear synthetic sole fitted, which is also available in black, and being welted boots, stitched, along with long wearing heels. These are suitable for a lot of work and social environments being anti slip, oil resistant, long wearing and comfortable to stand in. Nothing is left to chance with this type of repair. When old soles are removed old stitching is removed from the welt, and the cavity between sole and upper is recorked. This provides support and insulation and helps retain original comfort. Afterwards the boots are treated to a super clean, which involves a leather wash, leather conditioner, deodoriser followed by a full polish and shine. This alone is valued at $50 but included with the service. For the rural customer, quality full leather soles are an option.
