He had them refurbished by Limmer one time within the last 10 years.

Any idea what the refurbishment costs?

Apologies for the vague response but the answer given was: "Definitely more than I originally paid for the boots." He paid about $65 in 1969.

Nice, worth it I'm sure. Probably 500$ for a new pair. Im still blown away that a pair of work boots could last that long.

This all led me to allen edmonds website, I had never been there before. Some really great bifl boots and dress shoes there! They also repair and refurbish.
