Take good care of the inside and the outside. A special pain is the old foot in the new boot. Make them last to the best of your ability.

I had Carolinas that lasted me about 2 years as well. Much more beat up but I loved em and they held strong. The soles are the first to go
Himalayiantortoise
Exactly right. My soles are run down but no leaks at all. I love these boots. Idk if i will ever buy anything other than carolinas

What do you do?
Himalayiantortoise
Mainly floor finishing, stripping and waxing vct tile. Its mostly dirt, wax, and stripper buildup on the boots. Theyre still good for work

So im going to wear the old pair until i absolutely cannot anymore.

Looks like a bit of concrete or grout. The "dyeing" could be caused by the colors of the local soils. Can you find that in the Munsell?
Himalayiantortoise
Not exactly sure what your talking sbout sorry. The dark colors are old wax being stripped, and getting on the boot then covered in the wax

On YouTube you can search stripping vct tile and waxing vct tile to get a better idea of what i do.
