[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 1232799, member: 13921"] I have 2 pair of Danner 200 gram thinsulate that I have had for 8 years. 1 pair was resoled poorly by a local cobbler and they are done. The other pair was resoled 1 time by danner. That pair should be good for another 2 years before another resoling. I also have 2 pairs of Rocky 1000 gram thinsulate for when it gets really cold. Who knows how long they will last, they probably each get worn less than 2 weeks a year. Summer use, I have 3 pairs of Whites oxfords. 2 were rebuilt last spring. I think they were 8 or 9 years old when I sent them in. They took longer to rebuild than I was expecting, so I bought another new pair, so now I rotate 3 pair through the week. Rebuilding was $135/pair and if they last another 6-8 years, I will have spent waaaaay less than someone that spends $100 a year on crappy shoes. Rotating shoes/boots allows them to dry thoroughly and they last more than twice as long. Plus, my feet love me. [/QUOTE]
