Where does the sole go when it leaves you?

This weekend, in the space of fifteen minutes, the soles of both my boots fell off. They weren’t especially expensive boots, I got these steel-toed boots for working down the at Crucible in Oakland, probably fifteen years ago, but the coincidence of them both failing within fifteen minutes surprised me. I was high up in a tree on a ladder at the time so maybe they were scared of heights.

I now have some great Carhartt work boots and you really need good boot around DM. These boots fit well, whether I have one pair or three pairs of socks on.
