FWIW....Those soles are not made by Dainite (The Harboro Rubber Company).
They are John Lobbs "take-off" of the Dainite Studded Sole.
The sole pictured is called the "October":

We have worked on them several times. They are softer than Dainite. If you catch your toe on carpeting -or- going up the stairs the edge of the toe will tear at the stitching much like a piece of perforated paper.
They can be cemented back but might not hold-up that long...
Hi,
I have these John Lobb jodhpur boots, had them for about 6 months wearing them very frequently and I noticed one has this peelage. Is this an issue I can ignore or should I somehow get this fixed/remediated?
