Asolo TPS re sole?

Looking for some options on a re-sole. I really don’t want a new pair as these fit like a glove. I’ve contacted Asolo and they would do a gratis one-time repair with receipt but of course, I don’t have the receipt. They’re about 5 years old with seasonal use; once or twice trips in the summer. Overall in excellent condition with little wear in tread. Here’s some pics of delamination.
Thanks for any input.

I have not used these guys, but it looks like a viable option.

Thanks @TurboHike . Awaiting Asolo’s reply and this cobbler you provided may be the alternative.

Heard back from Asolo and much to my surprise the boots are 10 years old. Pretty amazing. Anyway, Asolo won’t cover the gratis re-sole (irritating result).
Asolo’s recommendation and adding here to HST for others:

I've used Dave Page and found him very good. Highly recommended.

I had my Asolo TPS delaminate like that several years ago--I think it was in 2018. I recall I had mine resoled by Dave Page via REI. The resole has held up nicely through two tough backpacking seasons (2019 and 2020). I haven't worn my Asolos yet in 2021 because I use my Merrell's on the more on-trail trips (the two Sierra trips I've done so far this year) and my geologic field work, but the Asolos will be ready when I start my harder trips this summer.

Following up. Shipped my boots to Dave Page and within a week came back with new Vibram soles. I've been using them and they feel great. Nice outfit up there in WA. I do recommend them but still dubious how long they will stay on. Best for the holidays everyone.
