Anyone else agree?
WTF is this collection of old wives' tales? Some mythbusting:
1. Applying topys requires zero wear as the cobbler will just sand the sole down a bit to create an adhesive surface. This does not shorten the life of the sole.
It seems the leather sole is wearing pretty quick, I am wondering how often you guys will do the re-sole for your shoes?
not at all.
Cause I do have my shoes resoled when they need it, i.e. when there is a hole that appears or is about to appear.
This is not true for all leather soles.
hmmh, what can i say now.
OP - Those soles look normal to me and do not need to be re-soled. If you resole them, they'll look just like this after you wear them once or twice. What you see is just some minor surface abrasion. Wear them and don't resole until you wear a hole in them or they get very soft. I can't answer the poll either as I only resole when needed.
