Heel replacement is possible for footwear produced using the so-called “Strobel” technique, in other words, footwear from the ALL TERRAIN CLASSIC and ALL TERRAIN SPORT lines. “Strobel” is a shoemaking technique in which the non-woven insole is sewn on to the upper using the Strobel stitch, thus forming a solid unit. The outsole is then sprayed on. The heel of this sprayed on sole can be sanded down and a new standard outdoor heel glued on in its place. A complete sole replacement is not possible with this footwear design, since a sprayed-on sole cannot be removed without damaging the upper.
