Mine are also a couple of years old and I guess I find it thin when compared to the CXL used on my Carmina CXL shoes and Viberg CXL boots. I also find the leather although different on my Redwing Beckmans to be a bit thicker as well.

I'd agree with that, a bit stiffer too but good leather.

I would just keep an eye on the classifieds here and eBay. eBay generally sells some new ones for fairly reasonable prices, although 1ks QC has been questionable recently.

Actually the main problem with pre-broken in boots is that they have been broken in for someone elses feet. Besides 1ks require virtually no break in.
