If your prized leather Dubarry, Henri-Lloyd, etc boots have soles that have become hard and slippery, or soles that have just crumbled away, then these people -East Coast based, of course! - can help:-
Dubarry Repairs - Repairs for Dubarry boots, shoe, coats and bags | Sport & Leisure Boot Repairs
i have just had my Henri-Lloyd Shadow boots resoled by them. The old sole was crumbling away and the boots were too slippery to wear on deck. They have completely replaced the soles with new Italian Vibram marine non slip soles. I tested them today on the boat and the grip is wonderful on both wet and dry decks. I’m really pleased with the repair.
Not a cheap service - my repair was £85 including return postage- but of course the Government‘s cut of that is £16 or so! - and a lot cheaper than new boots.
I can thoroughly recommend this service and of course I have no connection with the company other than as a customer.
