Quality of sole binding adhesive has decreased over the years.
I have owned quite a few pairs of the black London Walker boots, originally purchased directly from Eco Vegan. Would last a couple of years with constant commuting to the office and back as well as week end duties. Grippy, waterproof and the only thing that wore out over time was the sole under the heel. Last couple of pairs bought from the new distributor the sole has basically dropped off after a month or so. I bought them when on sale together. Yesterday commuting home I was wondering if I'd make it back before both soles came completely away! The deterioration was that quick. Sad as it seems the glue or whatever bonding agent they have been using is not fit for purpose and these once we're the perfect work shoe for me.
