      Not anymore. They are now using poor rubber for soles that will fall off in 4-5 years.

        Good Year Welt boots are repairable, and re-sole-able.

        The one on the right is completely unrepairable, and the sole is molded and impossible to replace.

        Change brands, there are still good ones out there. Or buy vintage.
