Dainite Rubber Full Soles Boots

People often choose rubber soles instead of leather for more durability and foul weather performance which is we believe it is an excellent choice for resoles.

Dainite is an English company that has been making rubber soles since 1894 and the one we offer here since 1910. Many high-end companies offer Dainite rubber soles as an option on new shoes. According to Dainite’s website: Its original design was to provide comfort and grip in all conditions while not attracting or storing dirt. Its design is as valid today as it was then, making it difficult for dirt to accumulate and preventing dirt entering the home or office. Shoes are easily wiped clean if required as there are no cleats or heavy grooves to hold the dirt. The Dainite sole successfully achieved this aim whilst maintaining a smart timeless styling.

We could not agree more with Dainite’s own description and think it truly does offer a quality alternative to leather because of its durability, traction, and low profile which makes it a great option for dress or casual, shoes and boots.
