Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
Mine had that too, and I returned them to Wolverine for a new pair. I've had my new pair for over a year, have worn them on the job every day through some brutal conditions, and the new heels have NOT split.- jrs19

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
while I love the way the 1ks look and feel, I can't say that I think they're as tough as they should be. I've had mine for only 4 months. in those 4 months, I've given them at least 4 HDLP treatments, and I already have a hole in the sole. this seems very premature. do i call wolverine...- jrs19

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
So my 1Ks are only a few months old, and the leather insole on one of the boots has become unglued. is this the kind of thing i can fix myself with super glue, or is it better to take to a cobbler?- jrs19

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
Using a shoe tree at night will help minimize the uneven creasing. And I repeat what everyone else has said, they'll be just fine. I suggest taking them out into the woods and stomping over and through everything you say. give your boots some scars, they'll look awesome and you won't...- jrs19

I moved out of NYC 1.5 years ago, so don't know if he's still there, but there's a great cobbler on West 10th Street, just west of 6th Ave. he's between a coffee shop and pet shop. great price, and he always did outstanding work with my Luccheses- jrs19

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
These look amazing. in fact, making me wish i would have gone brown over the rust. they look great. did you order your sole and bring it to a cobbler, or is a cobbler well stocked with Vibram options and sizes?- jrs19

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
Those look awesome. Thanks for doing, and thanks for posting. I now want to do the same, and i'm curious -- i've been wearing my new W1Ks for about a month so my leather sole is pretty scuffed, that shouldn't be a problem should it?- jrs19

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
For all of those concerned about how/if treating new boots will change the color of your leather. I have my two cents that i was afforded because of a faulty pair of 1K mile boots. I have rust colored boots. on my first pair i treated them as Crane's suggested. right out of the box, heavy...- jrs19

Crane's, coming through big again, thanks. The photo i posted of the wrinkles in the leather was a brand new photo. i opened the box, saw the wrinkles, took the picture. per your post, i was going to condition them before wearing, but didn't make it that far. i actually sent that photo to...- jrs19

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
Alright guys, I need more advice. I'm the guy who wrote about the heel "separating" from the sole of my boot. As i said in my post, the company was sending me a replacement pair. The replacements got here today and there are two things worth noting. 1) they too have the "separation" that...- jrs19

Wolverine 1000 Mile Boot Review
Crane's, your post about sno-sealing the 1,000 mile boots is awesome. After reading y'all write so fondly of your 1,000 boots i had to get a pair. Per your advice, as soon as they arrived, i applied 3 coats of Obenauf's HDLP (Heavy Duty Leather Protector -- a beeswax water repellent and...- jrs19
