Hi guys,

Any decent places that can do heel guard/taps? My heel drag has been wearing off the back rubber portion of my shoes. Not too sure if I should just get the rubber replaced or add taps. Was thinking of heading to Kips n kwik but not too sure if they offer such a service.

Waxed rough out looks interesting. How's the texture like? Since it waxed means it's almost as good as "water repellent?"

Anyway please include your ordering process / how to order with junkard if you do a write up, am interested.

Like roughout leather with wax? Haha!
Not sure on the water repellent part, this is my first pair.

I discussed with them via Line app, but I believe you can order via email or other social mediums too.

What kinda shoe? I cant expect heel taps to be very comfortable nor beneficial to your grip

They can just replace the rubber top lift easy. Abt $25+? Heels are simple jobs, toes however....

can anyone recommend a place to vibram shoes?

Kips N Kwik at Bishan J8 gets a lot of recommendations, as well as Shukey at Far East.
Personally I really like Shukey. I feel they do a better job, and they're cheaper too. Yes, I'm a cheap b**tard.

If u work in the CBD, can also consider solemann located at one raffles place and arcade. I do my vibrams there and experience is positive. There's a shukey at clifford centre too, no personal experience though

Wearing my 1st ever pair of (hand)welted shoes. Bought this mid last year after I started reading this thread.

17 months and 17 pairs of shoes later..... I've shaved my collection to 13 pairs.

Oh what a dangerous and slippery slope this path is.........
