WE RESOLE ROSSI BOOTS — PROFESSIONAL ROSSI BOOT REPAIR
At MyShoeman / High Street Shoe Repair, we know boots—and we’ve been repairing and resoling them since the late 1970s. George, our master cobbler, has rebuilt thousands of pairs of boots in his 40+ years in the trade. When it comes to Rossi boot repair, he knows exactly what works and what doesn’t.
We use only premium Vibram® soles to recraft your Rossi boots, giving them a stronger, longer-lasting foundation than the original factory components. The result? A clean, solid rebuild that brings your Rossi boots back to life—often better than new.
We resole a large number of Rossi boots for local customers, and their repeat business and consistent positive feedback say everything about the quality of our work. Whether your Rossis need a fresh Vibram sole, a full rebuild, or general repair, you’re in the right place.
Reliable. Experienced. Time-tested craftsmanship.
Send us your Rossi boots and let us restore them the right way.
Vibram 1705 soles
Very popular! The VIBRAM 1705 sole is made of Gumlite, a soft and cushioned material similar in density to original Rossi soles. The 1705 has a lug pattern that offers more traction than the 1716. The deep lugs give excellent grippping power.
Vibram 1716
Low profile, more of a dress look. Also made of Gumlite, this sole offers a smoother profile, preferable for a dress look. We’ve also had people say they prefer it for horseback riding.
Vibram 1752
Another smooth profile, but a little thicker than the 1716. Also has a little higher heel.

Q: The Blundstone website states that it is not practical to replace/repair the soles. Have you had much feedback from customers getting this done?
A: We have re-soled thousands of Blundstones, no problems. Many new shoe companies discourage repairing their shoes, why fix the old ones when you could just buy a new pair? Hmm.. People even say their repaired shoes are more comfortable than before, probably because the re-soling process brings the heels and soles back to an even level, much like new shoes.
Q: How much new life does the new Vibram sole add?
A: The new soles are not the hard type of Vibram soles that many people are familiar with. They are lightweight, a little soft and cushioned, but very durable. You’ll probably get the same or more wear out of them that you got out of your first soles.
Q: Does the adhesive ever separate during wet, snowy weather?
A: We resole many shoes, locally, and over the internet. Here in western Oregon, we get alot of rain (50+ inches per year), especially during the wet season. If our adhesives didn’t work in wet weather, we wouldn’t be in business.
Q: Do you ship internationally?
Sorry, we only ship within the USA.
Q: How do I start this process?
Print and complete our shipping form . Take your boots and the shipping form to your nearest US Post Office and ship them to us. We’ll take care of the rest! The easiest way for most people to ship to us is to go to the Post Office and ask for a large Priority Mail “Tyvek” envelope. These are usually fine for one pair. They also have free boxes if you are sending more than that. The Post Office’s Priority Mail is very fast and efficient, we use it all the time and typically see a 2-4 day shipping time within the USA.
CUSTOMER FEEDBACK
“Hi George, You resoled my Blundstones in June and I just wanted to share this with you. I wore the boots during a Habitat for Humanity house-building project in Mongolia. The boots worked awesome, very comfortable and durable in the rigorous environment of the build site, great for hiking and held out water during the numerous rain storms. In this picture, you can see your handiwork on my feet as I sit on the wall of the house we built in Kharkhorum, the ancient capital of Mongolia. Thanks again for the great work. I couldn’t be happier with how you rescued my boots!” … K Graves
“I just wanted to let you know how thrilled I am with your service and the fine repair job you did on my shoes. My husband dropped off a pair of Birk’s and of Blundstones last week for resoling, and they were ready today. They look great! They look like new–but the cool thing is that they are so broken in they feel old! I will not hesitate to recommend your shop. BTW, I found you on the internet, when I did a search for Blunstone repair, so I was originally prepared to ship them away. I was pleasantly surprised that you were in Salem, where my husband works.” D Clair
“Your repair is absolutely perfect! My Blunnies are back! The soles were in terrible shape, but the shoes now look almost new (which is amazing because the shoes are almost ten years old). Can’t thank you enough.” Lee Winter
“Dear Cobblers, My re-soled Blundstones just arrived in today’s mail and they’re PERFECT. Better than new, in fact! It’s awesome to have my broken-in Blunnies back in time for winter — for half the cost of a new pair, and in about 2 short weeks. I’m thrilled. I’m so glad I found you on the Web. I’ll be happy to recommend your services in future. For quality, price and speed, you’re the best. Thank you!” With all best wishes, Andrew Peterson
“I just wanted to thank you for a fabulous job of resoling my old Blundstones. The boots I got back from you look like new. In business circles I’ve often heard that among “quality”, “reasonable price”, and “speed” you can only get two of the three at the same time. Congratulations on doing all three. The work is excellent, the price incredibly reasonable, and the turn-around time impressive. I’d had my Blunnies for about 8 years when the soles started disintegrating. I’m sure they’d never seen polish or a good clean up either. I could hardly believe that they were my old boots. I put them on and it was like having perfectly broken new boots. You worked magic on them. Thanks again. Susan …Cabin John, Maryland”
“Thank you for the excellent work you did on my Blundstones! The craftsmanship and speed of service both far exceeded my expectations. I will definitely recommend you to others. Regards, Brad B. Orlando, FL”
