BLUNDSTONE BOOT REPAIR & RESOLING
Worn-out Blundstone soles? We rebuild Blundstone boots with quality Vibram replacement soles. High Street Shoe Repair in Salem, Oregon offers local repairs and nationwide mail-in Blundstone resoling.
YES, BLUNDSTONE BOOTS CAN BE RESOLED!
Cracked, crumbling, worn or separating Blundstone soles do not necessarily mean your boots are finished. Most standard Blundstone boots can be rebuilt with new Vibram soles, provided the uppers and underlying construction are sound.
High Street Shoe Repair has resoled thousands of Blundstone boots for customers throughout the United States. We remove the deteriorated factory sole material, prepare the boots and install durable Vibram replacement soles designed for comfort and everyday use.
If you like the fit of your broken-in Blundstones, resoling is often an excellent alternative to replacing them.
HOW WE REPAIR BLUNDSTONE BOOTS
Most Blundstone boots use molded factory soles that are not replaced in the same way as traditional stitched leather soles. Our repair process removes the original sole material and rebuilds the bottom of the boot to accept a Vibram replacement sole.
The result is a comfortable, serviceable boot with a new wearing surface while retaining the familiar leather uppers you have already broken in.
VIBRAM RESOLE OPTIONS
We offer three Vibram Gumlite replacement sole styles. Gumlite is lightweight and cushioned, with a feel similar to the original Blundstone sole material. Choose the tread pattern that best suits how you wear your boots.
Vibram 1758 Stalker
A comfortable Gumlite sole with a lower-profile tread pattern. Designed to provide useful traction while tending to carry less mud and snow than deeper lug patterns.
Women's sizes 7–11 and men's sizes 5–14.
Vibram 1752
A smoother-profile Gumlite sole for customers who prefer a less aggressive tread appearance. Slightly thicker than the 1716, with a somewhat higher heel.
Women's sizes 7–11 and men's sizes 5–14.
Blundstone Stitchdown Boots
We are unable to resole the newer Blundstone stitchdown styles. Our standard Blundstone resoling service is intended for compatible molded-sole constructions.

BLUNDSTONE BOOT REPAIR — COMMON QUESTIONS
Can Blundstone boots really be resoled?
Yes. We have resoled thousands of pairs. Most standard Blundstone boots with sound uppers are good candidates for our Vibram resole process. We remove the old sole material and rebuild the boots with new replacement soles.
Can you repair Blundstone soles that are crumbling or falling apart?
Yes, in many cases. Blundstone factory soles can deteriorate, crack, crumble or separate with age. Even when the original soles are badly damaged, the leather uppers may still have years of useful life. We replace the deteriorated sole material rather than simply gluing the old sole back together.
Are Vibram replacement soles comfortable?
Yes. Our Vibram Gumlite options are lightweight and cushioned, making them well suited to Blundstone boots. They are not identical to the factory soles, but provide a comfortable alternative with several tread patterns.
Which Vibram sole is best for my Blundstones?
The Vibram 1705 is our most popular choice for its deeper tread and traction. The 1758 offers a lower-profile tread that tends to collect less mud and snow. The 1752 has a smoother appearance and a slightly higher heel. All three are made of cushioned Gumlite.
What sizes of Blundstone boots can you resole?
Our current Vibram replacement sole options are available in women's sizes 7–11 and men's sizes 5–14. Availability outside these ranges may be limited.
Can you resole Blundstone stitchdown boots?
No. We do not currently resole the newer Blundstone stitchdown models. These differ from the standard molded-sole Blundstones we routinely rebuild.
Do I need to live in Oregon to use your repair service?
No. We serve customers nationwide through our mail-in repair service. You can also bring your boots directly to our Salem, Oregon shoe repair shop.
Is resoling Blundstone boots worth it?
If the leather uppers are in good condition and the boots fit comfortably, resoling is often a practical alternative to buying a new pair. You retain your familiar, broken-in boots while replacing the worn factory sole with a new Vibram sole.
