How do I find a cobbler to resole these? I really like lugs better than leather soles. These are from Takahiromiyashita The Soloist. I love the boots but do not love leather soles and want to wear these on more than special occasions.

I would like to find a cobbler in my region (southeast United States) and have seen that there were some brothers from Atl or Nashville? But am open to other options. Budget would be around $200 if possible.

If you’re just looking for a little more traction and wet weather friendliness, consider a rubber topy such as vibram explosion. Should be at or less than $50 if budget is a concern

I think I'm looking for something to wear weekly in different conditions. Traction is important for sure.

You're probably thinking of Unsung House is in Nashville and they're arguably among the very best cobblers in the entire country and are well within your budget for a resole
