Defeating Hydrolysis: Why Your Blundstones Deserve a New Life


Hydrolysis is the invisible enemy of polyurethane soles: a chemical reaction where humidity breaks down the bonds of the polymer, transforming the sole into a powder that suddenly crumbles. Repairing a pair of Blundstones has immense value: while the sole fails due to chemical limitations, the leather upper it is almost always in excellent condition. Throwing them away would be a waste. In our laboratory in Milan, we remove every trace of degraded polyurethane and recover the leather structure, which has already taken the shape of your foot, making it ready for a new phase of life. With beyond 500 pairs repaired every year, we are the specialists in this restoration.

Technical Architecture: The Svig outsole designed for Blundstone


To regenerate your shoes we do not use a generic replacement, but the sole Svig SU557. This component was Designed and printed specifically for repairing Blundstone models: its dimensions and design are designed to perfectly accommodate the original upper, guaranteeing a harmonious aesthetic.


The real upgrade lies in the material: unlike the original polyurethane sole, subject to hydrolysis and crumbling, the Svig sole is made of high quality rubber. This material not only offers superior grip and greater flexibility, but is chemically stable and designed to last over time without ever pulverizing. To this we add the Opanka seam: we sew the new sole to the upper with specialized machinery, eliminating any risk of detachment. In rare cases, especially on suede leather, manual processing can leave slight technical marks near the sole, evidence of the authentic artisanal restoration carried out in Milan.
