Just got back two pairs of shoes I sent to the friction fix - turn aournd time was 10 days (from sending to recieving), and they look better then new. I have had resoles done a several places, and the friction fix is far and away the best and most consistant shop out there. Plus they are nearly local for a lot of us.

Just the left ones? Usually better to go ahead and do both shoes at the same time???

I noticed that. You kind of walk like Igor. I saw strange markings in the mud up to Military one day. It looked like a one footed man walking a snake on a leash. When I got up there you were the only one there and it all came together.

Doctors can't fix that for some reason. They blame this genetic disorder that occurred because my grandparents were siblings. I didn't know that could cause freak mutations.

Meadows you should probably have a complete radiological workup on your spine.
It apparently doesn't effect your climbing.

Yosemite Bum who is part of Evolv also does a great job AND...they are cheap. They will resole your Evolves for $22 TOTAL. Other brands cost a bit more, but not much and they have discounts. I would say their turnaround time was about 10 days-ish.
