Looking for a resoler that won't let me down (does a fantastic job) and won't take a month to return my shoes- any of you know one out here in the West......I've tries the Rubber room but I tell you- I've been disappointed.......

I agree, the rubber room puts out junk! I used to send my burnt shoes to jules (god rest her soul) but, yall know the story there, she was the best.
i hear the guys in j tree are pretty good, ive seen some of their work and it looks pretty damn good

resoleexpress.com

24 hour turnaround with reasonable prices. I had good luck with them. They will also resole with mad rock rubber if you want.

If you scan through the Gear Heads Forum, you will see a plethora of threads regarding reolers, and over 100 from the site have used Yosemite Bum, and will never use another from now on, me being one of them.

why would one resole with mad rock rubber?, so you can resole again in another 2 weeks?

I just had my Mythos resoled with C4 rubber from http://www.rockandresole.com. Excellent quality, great turnaround time, even with the holidays. Great price too...

I had my Boreals done at RockandResole and they fell apart in a matter of three trips up Devils tower. I am sending them to Yosemite Bum this time.

I'll second rock and resole in Boulder. I've had good experiences with them; nothing to match Mitchal's unfortunate experience. They're on holiday until 5 Jan, but had a 2-day turnaround including mail time from CoSpgs this spring.
