I have noticed that some shoes most notably formal shoes have heels that are made from all leather unlike most dress shoes that have heels made with combination of leather and small rubber part. For example most of BB Peal shoes have heels with combination of rubber and leather. However BB formal patent shoes are made with all leather base.
Anybody has any opinion on this issue. I thought that reasoning for leather/rubber combination is for traction. Formal shoes are meant to be worn on red carpet but would all leather heel and sole shoes be slippery on carpeted surface.
For example of all leather heel please see these Wellington boots
