Review 5 out of 5 stars

Review by: adamd, 2005-01-26


I've only had one resole from them so far but I'm sold on the rubber and the workmanship is excellent. Ditto what most are saying about them being exceptionally easy to deal with. convinced me...just bought a pair of Evolv slippers. All my resoles will be going to them in the future.

Their price was one of the best I'd seen, so I figured why not.

Customer service was great, no question there. They answered any questions I had and really knew what they were doing.

I sent in my shoes on Monday and they were back to me on Thursday - so definately fast.

I had them resole my La Sportiva Mythos shoes and the new Trax rubber was WAY better than the original rubber. Very impressed. They managed to repair the rand and do the resole in a way that added support to the shoe, increased it's edging a good deal but still smeared just as good if not better. I waited to write this review for six months to see how they wore and frankly I'm very impressed. For how sticky they are I expected a short life, but what I got was them outlasting my originals by a good margin.

After trying the new Trax rubber I'm definately sold. Way to go Brian - good stuff all the way around.

Brian has always delivered great resoles and customer service. I've had four resoles done by him. His turnaround is very fast.

I sent in my Katanas, I got them back fast, it didn't cost much, but they grinded down the side rand on one of the shoes.

The result is that my left shoe is pretty much shot.

Update: I called them up and they fixed the mistake by re-doing both rands for free.
Looks good - let's see how they work.

I was introduced to Yosemite Bum resoles through my gym, when my regular resoler was in Yosemite. I contacted Brian, who said he could do my shoes in a week, so I sent em off. Due to him moving to another place, it took a week longer, and he that I let him furnish me with a new pair of like shoes for that week. I was sold on his customer service at that point, and have gotten several pairs of shoes resoled by him since then. The rubber he uses is much better than Five-Ten Stealth believe it or not, and he gets the shoes back to me much quicker than any other resoler I've used, and for cheaper. (Note-Rubber Room cost more, and I've never gotten shoes back in less than from them) All of his resoles have been top notch, and have not delammed yet.I'll never use another resoler, other than YoseBum.
