Mercer Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I'm on my 6th pair of Asolo, 7th is already waiting in the box. I wear through the soles on a pair of these once every 2 years. I'm on my feet all day in rough/unpredictable environments. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can recommend a spot in Boulder (rock and resole) that have done several pairs of climbing shoes for me. Don't know if asolo 's can be or not, but I hate ditching a perfectly broken in boot when a $150 resole can give me two more years vs $350+ for a new pair.

I had Redwings (probably exactly like those) maybe 10 + years ago, probably one of the best work boots. They recommend them for technicians like myself because I'm regularly lifting 50 lbs. plus batteries, but I'm also putting in quite a few miles a day, stairs etc. and prefer the risk of wearing lighter boots.

My one beef with the redwings is they are heavy. I'm a tech as well (if you couldn't tell by the coveralls) and a few things I really do like about the goretex redwings are they are waterproof and I find there is barely any break in for them. We get a boot allowance and I'm thinking of switching it up for my next pair and going with Haix. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's only one guy in the United States that re-soles Asolos well enough to be recommended, but he's expensive and in Portland. These hiking boots are almost like sneakers, it doesn't really make sense to resole them like a good danner/redwing or real leather boot.

Ive never tried on a pair of redwings before but have heard nothing but good about them. I went to a saddlery around my way and picked these muck boots about 3 years ago. @Mercerwhat is the price point on those Asolos? I like a lightweight boot myself.

Got them on Amazon for $168 on sale, price shot back up to $224 now for me. 2nd pair was a nice come up, they didn't deliver the 1st pair but had marked them delivered. I bitched about it and Amazon refunded, so I ordered again at the sale price. 2 days later the 1st pair I ordered finally arrived, then the 2nd pair arrived a few days later. Shout out to the UPS drivers that mark stuff delivered, then come through two days later with it after you've been refunded.
