Q. What's worse than breaking in a new
, pair of cork boots?
A. Nothing. First you spend about a
hundred bucks for 'em and then for a
couple of weeks they beat your dogs
to death.
There's an answer. We can take your
comfortable old clodhoppers and make
them like new. We'll fix everything,
including heels and toe-caps. You save a
bundle of cash and your feet will love
you for it!
