Description

At Baxter & Black, we appreciate balance in every detail of a shoe. The Dr Sole Supergrip Half Heel strikes that balance beautifully. It delivers grip and durability without sacrificing the refined silhouette that defines quality footwear. Crafted in Taiwan, it showcases Dr. Sole’s attention to detail and commitment to traditional shoemaking values. This is the half heel which means you can add it to a leather stacked heel.

We use the Dr Sole Supergrip Heel for customers who want a combination of traction and style. Its design allows for a leather stack beneath the rubber, giving a more classic profile than a full rubber heel. This makes it an excellent choice for Goodyear-welted shoes, work boots, or heritage footwear where you want the stability of rubber but the sophistication of leather. The rubber compound is dense yet flexible, offering excellent shock absorption and wear resistance. Whether on pavement or polished floors, it provides confident footing without adding unnecessary bulk.

Unlike heavier all-rubber heels, this half heel keeps the shoe’s proportions elegant. It integrates seamlessly with leather heel stacks, maintaining that layered, traditional look prized in premium shoes. The tread pattern mirrors Dr. Sole’s signature Supergrip line, known for outstanding traction and balance. We import these regularly from Taiwan and can order specific sizes or finishes as needed. Every heel we fit is trimmed, shaped, and finished by hand, ensuring a clean, precise result that performs and looks exceptional.

For those restoring fine footwear or upgrading existing pairs, the Dr Sole Supergrip Heel offers the best of both worlds, leather for tradition and rubber for function. It’s a smart, stylish solution for anyone who values craftsmanship that works as hard as it looks.

Our Method

  1. We remove the old heel carefully without damaging the midsole.
  2. Carefully, we clean the heel base of old glue and nails.
  3. Next we roughen both heel base and rubber heel for better grip.
  4. After this, we apply Renia CDC glue, wait 15 minutes, then clamp the heel firmly.
  5. Then we trim excess rubber and sand flush.
  6. Finally, we add nails for extra strength.
