RE: Feet First
I've seen folks retread boots like Danner Arcadias using slices of car tyres.
What a fascinating article as well.

RE: Feet First
I'm going with this basic system.

Got me a pair, and I'm working towards running in them. Be screwed for winter, but the basic idea is similar. The tool used to punch a hole in the hurachi's is really small (a very thick cocktail stick really) and I have 2 (one for me, one for the misses). It's basically a small leather punch. Really easy to carry, and really damn sharp!!!

RE: Feet First
Not seen the leather punch but the older style multi tools or before that pen knives had a tool just for that and in some cases a hole in it for adding thread or sinew

RE: Feet First
this is why i've got 4 pairs of walking boots, 2 pairs of Docks and a pair of Cat boots, when i wear 1 pair out i buy 2 more, so that i've always got a stock when it all goes pear shaped!
