I use to clean them more but as much as I walk on a jobsite the bottoms wear out and no matter how good I keep them they still wear out to the point they need to be thrown away in usually 3 to 6 months with an occasional pair lasting longer  :salute:

These are my "do all" chukka boots.  Grippy sole, gore-tex lined and smart enough once I've given them a clean. ;)  I've got plenty of other footwear, but they tend to be more activity specific.

I guess these Danner pull-ons would be my equivalent to those Chukkas. My go-to, 'do all' boots. They started out as Danner's, but they've had a few sets of replacement insoles and they are sporting their third set of soles (Vibram treads installed by a local boot maker). A bit scuffed and scarred, but still serviceable for daily use. I think they still have plenty of life left!

These are my "do all" chukka boots.  Grippy sole, gore-tex lined and smart enough once I've given them a clean. ;)  I've got plenty of other footwear, but they tend to be more activity specific.

Nothing like a familiar pair of boots.    :salute:

Very cool. Danner used to be the hiking boot of choice 20 years ago, before everyone switched to what I call "hiking sneakers". I'd love to find a good pair of Danner leather hiking boots.

Nix, let's see the bottom soles of those things!

Heres what I wear.  Thorogoods, Merrel, Havana Joe ( made in Spain) I cannot recall how long I've had these, 20+ years.

Thundah, I think Danner still makes the "Mountain Light" model......quick google......




Yeap. I had a pair of these for years. Nice boots. I later switched to some Vasque Sundowners. I don't think Vasque makes those anymore, so the Mountain Lights might end up back in my rotation.

Oh, and my re-treads:

(In some cultures it is offensive to flash or point one's shoe soles at another person, so I've stuck my potential offending soles in Spoiler.)

New(wish) Vibrams:




Close up with boot maker's brass screws:





These new soles gave the boots a very different feel. I think the brass screws conduct heat fairly quickly, and my feet seem to get cold in these boots more easily if standing around outside on a cold day now.
