Default Repairing "non-repairable" shoes.

I've got a pair of shoes which are a bit down at heel. The leather
uppers are in fine shape and the soles have quite a few miles left.

The problem is the heels. They seem to be solid from top to bottom i.e.
there's no removable sole I can replace. To complicate matters there's a
circular shock absorbing insert down the middle.

Before I bin them, has anybody successfully sawn off the end of the heel
(the part that contacts the ground) and replaced it?
