I would love to have leather bottoms on all my dress shoes, but it is simply just too expensive. However, I find myself buying shoes over and over again, due to the soles wearing out, while the leather upper is in perfect shape. I often feel ready for a new looking shoe at that time, though. Due to cost (I get mid- high cost dress shoes), I only ever have one brown pair and one black pair at any one time. I also don't replace them until I notice my socks are getting wet from the rainy pavement !

Have you sought out a cobbler?
