    Chaps, just wondered if anyone can recommend a company who could re-sole my beloved Alpinestar race boots. Unfortunately i have worn one of the boots down through the toe slider and the sole causing a hole.Ooops! rear sets now fitted!!
    There is a company called GB that advertise on the net , anyone had any experience of them.

    I've heard before that with alpinestars gear you can have it sent back to alpinestars via the shop you bought the kit from and they can repair it for you at a decent price. Might be worth looking into.

    People on here have used GB Bike Leathers before and seemed happy. I know they do Sidi but don't know about Alpinestar.

    I ordered new soles off Sidi for my worn boots and took them to a local 'recommended' bespoke cobblers who charged me £10 so I thought bob on.....however, a week later of commuting & the heels are starting to pull away from the glue!! & I quote... 'Oh the glue we use may be effected by the engine heat'!! I mean WTF...why say you repair m/c boots then you dicktards! So beware of this re any shop recommendations :mad:
