Leather boots
The boots had already been repaired (reheeled) but needed an upgrade. The upgrade was refused by the same cobbler who had made the first repair as they said it would destroy the whole boot. While they noted it was not impossible to repair the boot. They were not able to do it at their shop, which is part of a chain of repair shops in the UK called Thompson.
Boots are comfortable and look good :)
Boots and shoes should be made in a way that enables easy repair. However this is not always the case, which is frustrating especially as they usually cost quite a bit.
