I have a pair of Northcotes which I have had for only a few months and they have been worn about 20 times so far in dry weather. They are stromwelted with Dainite rubber soles. However I noticed today that the right shoe at the front has developed a split, i.e. the rubber layer has separated from the other layer above it. Should this be happening? I didnt expect something like this to happen to £350+ shoes (which I may add have been treated with care). And is there anything I can use to glue it back together?





I would send a message to C&J first, I suppose they can offer some kind of support.

Great PSA. Almost kopped but am getting too old for that chiseled a toe. Also too old for "kopped". Damn it.

Some highburys were also up a few months back for the same price (they were in brown). Would've loved to have kopped those.

Whats the width like on the 348 last that the Lingfield is made from? The D width on Alden barrie's fit me perfectly and I tend to wear an E on the narrower lasts. The lingfields look pretty narrow....


The width is pretty much a "D". I wear 8.5D in AE and 7.5UK in the 348 last.

But if you have a high instep, I'm not sure it'll work for you. I have a low instep and it fits me perfectly. Anybody else want to chime in?
