[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 1065610, member: 13921"] Your boots/shoes will last considerably longer if you have 2 pair and wear them every other day. If they get the chance to dry out, the leather lasts longer and they do not smell as bad (mine still smell like leather and are 5-6 years old). I do resoles/recondition on my winter Danner's every 3ish years. I generally get 3 sets of soles out of a pair, the original and 2 resoles. I have also found that the best place for resoling is the Danner factory. I had a local cobbler resole a pair and the soles had to be reglued several times. The Danner resoles come back looking like new and come with new laces (I take the old laces out and put them in my lunch box for spares.) I used to think it was cheaper to buy Danner's and resole them and all that. Now I am thinking that I probably spend about the same as my chinese shod bruthas. The advantage to me is that I do not have to shop as much. I hate shopping, even boot/shoe shopping. [/QUOTE]
