    Pity that the soles of Moc Toes are made of cheese, as the uppers are completely bulletproof.

    I found the soles are more robust than I first thought but agree, they don’t last long enough. I’ve resoled my 675s once already and will need redone next year

    I’ve had my 1907’s for 6 years and not needed re-soling yet - admittedly worn in rotation with some other boots. They’ll probably need doing next year.

    To be fair though, they’re pretty much the most comfy boots I have, only my Paraboot Chambord get close (shoes).

    Expensive? Yes, but he is good. Obviously he has overheads and needs to make a living like the rest of us, if looked after the boots will last a life time.
    I don’t object paying the cost and it’s not like it’s done every month. 1 pair a year at most.
