New Felt For My Boots

[bigbowtrout]

Ok I blew a tire a few months ago now it's time for me to get new felt for my Simms boots. Does anyone know of a good shop that can do this or should I buy my own and glue them on? or at $99 for a new pair should I just get new ones?

 

Thanks

Fix your own. Easy!

Most shops cary a generic kit with the adhesive for 20-25 bucks. My advice, let the glue set a while as recommended and then attach the felts. I have done this years ago before owning aquastealth Simms and it worked fine.

Good luck.

I just replaced mine. Worked like a charm. Glue the boot side or the felt, let dry and then slap it on the boot with some new glue. Lots of duct tape to hold pressure.

 

I found a dremel on low speed worked really well to to trim the felt after the glue set. It melted the edge of the felt and left it hard. I think it might add some durability.
