After moving to a place with wetter, more snowy winters and having a fear of falling, I'm considering better soles for several pairs of footwear. I will be watching this thread. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-ankle-boots-but#post-1848589 Wed, 27 Sep 2017 03:58:17 +0000 minimalist 1848589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've had this done to more shoes than I'd like to admit to owning or having owned. </p> <p>Generally, I would recommend Topy over Vibram.<br /> <a href="http://www.topy.fr/en/Home" rel="nofollow">http://www.topy.fr/en/Home</a><br /> Both Vibram and Topy have thin yet sturdy (Topy sturdier) options that won't ruin the sleek look of the original sole. I had Topy applied to soles of Italian stiletto ankle boots, and they still seem just as sleek to me. (Unless you need the soles of your dressier footwear to be beige.) Happy to take pictures tomorrow, if you 'd like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/found-ankle-boots-but#post-1848586 Wed, 27 Sep 2017 02:34:04 +0000 Kathleen 1848586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I finally found ankle boots that I love everything about but they have a leather sole except the back half of the heel is rubber. I had a shoe shop had vibram soles to a pair of old shoes once that were too slippery so I'm wondering if I should maybe think about that with these but I'm worried it will ruin the sleek look of them. I would like to be able to bring them to Europe and wear them at home in Minnesota on non-snow days. Thoughts? </p>
