Looks like the dotted stealth soles on my Five Ten Freerider Pro shoes have seen better days. One option would be to resole them. Anyones done this recently? Cost? Recommendations?
Google gives me for £45ish;

I’ve had walking boots resoled by LSR, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Feet First in Chesterfield do s lot if climbing shoe resoles and have a good reputation for working with 5:10 soles.
I use them regularly for resoling all my shoes. They seem to be able to fit a sole to stuff that others say isn't possible.

must do a lot of walking... 🙂
£45. I've bought free riders and impacts in the sales for only a fiver more.
Once got some impact vxi with the mi6 soles for £60.
I do. I also like to look after the uppers and have shoes resoled rather than throw away a perfectly comfortable pair of shoes.
It also means I'm not limited to the sole that comes with the shoe.
I had my Guide Tenni high resoled by Boot Repair Co https://emergencyservicesbootrepairs.co.uk/ with vibram high grip soles. Very impressed with the job done.
Good stuff, I've had 2 years from my vxi impacts, they're only now starting to suffer from the sole departing. Really like the shoes, uppers are still great looking, resoling makes sense.
They're discontinued too, and I don't really see a replacement.
ive not had a pair of freeriders last more than 9 months without developing a big hole on the soles... spikey flat pedals savage them... i buy new ones and use them when its wet but i still ride with holes if its dry - just to prolong the lifespan of the new uns!
trouble is i just cant seem to get on with any alternative shoe.
I've used Cheshire shoes linked to in the first post.
Did a great job on them and will use them again when needed.

Have just emailed them about a pair of my 5.10 approach shoes whose soles have split....
