How much longer do vibram soles last compared to the original crepe that's on the db?

Personally, I think they are worth the 60 brand new, but def not 100. The sole wears out too fast on these.

Where are you finding them for that much? I can't find a pair anywhere under $95-100.

That's what i was thinking, thought they looked really nice with a Vibram sole, but I think I'd rather put that money towards a new shoe with a Vibram sole already on it, like the oak street ones.

I don't think the Canadian site has shoes.

BR usually will have some type of sale going on. I got mine at RackRoomShoes for 65.

Anyone know an Australian supplier or somewhere that will ship these to Aus that isn't too expensive? I want a pair of the leather beeswax ones.

I've got a pair of Taupe DBs in a size 10 I'm going to throw up for sale soon. They've been worn for a few months and are well broken in, but still lots of miles left to go. Feel free to hit me with a PM if you're interested (I can send some pics and you can make an offer) before I list it in B&S. If you buy before I post them, you'll get a tube of sno-seal (I used some on these and they turned a nice distressed-brown colour).

by far one of my favorite casual shoes

I want to get my first pair of desert boots but I'm not sure about the color :/

"Smokey Brown Suede", "Brown Suede" or "Cola" ?
I will wear them with jeans only.

Is there any insole that adds arch support but is super thin and won't add bulk or change the feeling of the fit of the shoe?]


Try the arch support insoles by Tacco. You can buy them here

Anyone ever have a cobbler add some rubber (topys) to the bottom? Is it even possible with crepe soles? Would make them last longer and less slippery on wet ground.
