Hello! My name is Viktor Harlov. I am the
owner of “Cabot Resole Company” in Beverly, MA. My experience in
shoe business goes back by 30 years. I started to make new men’s and
women’s shoes and boots in 1975 in Latvia (former USSR) by opening
my own individual order shop. It became popular very quickly, and
the waiting list was a yearlong. When Perestroika started in 1988, I
opened the first private shop in Riga (Latvia) specializing in the
shoe resole. Although we did not have very sophisticated machinery
as in USA, our methods were extremely effective. Most of the work
was done by hand. When I came
in USA in 1995, first thing I did - was studying the American
technique in the shoe resole for six month and gaining the new
experience. In 1995, I opened my own “Cabot Resole Co.” shop in
Beverly, MA. My good experience allowed me to cultivate the original
approach in resoling of any kind of shoes. I never reject any type
of repair.
Most of the famous brands, such as
Ecco and Mephisto, and many others use the chemical alloys that
crack with change of temperature, and these products are very
expensive. I can save your shoes by using the best of 37 types of
Vibram soles in any fashion. The material is long lasting, flexible
and never cracks. I remove the entire sole, only leaving the veldts,
attach the middle sole, stitch around, if remain part of old sole to
thick, I stitch by hand, and apply the similar shape of sole, just
as you had there before. If the sole will separate, I’ll redo it at
no charge, but it never happened in my practice before.
New approach – best results! |
