How best to protect the bottoms of dress shoes (Working professionals)?
Posted on 9/18/17 at 9:11 am

I have a very special pair of shoes that I want to protect while I'm working. I'm going to go with the heel protector taps for the heel but have no idea how to protect the leather from wearing so fast on the sole. What do you guys use for this?

Don't walk in them 
The bottom of the shoe is going to wear away. It's kinda the point of shoes...

You know those are my casual wear shoes. I can't wear those to the office.

Why not just put them in a shadow box and look at them instead?

if they are decent shoe the manufacturer will offer recrafting. Just wear the shoes and have them recrafted down the road.

You know you can resole shoes

Try not to drag your feet when you walk.

Yup!
I've had some shoes resoled and they came out great.
Hell, I just resoled some Sperry Topsiders because they were so perfectly broken in. The soles were absolutely gone though. Got new soles and new insoles. Better than new.

Nothing because the bottoms are supposed to wear. What kind of nonsense question is this?

Shoes are to protect your feet Baw, no need to protect the shoe.
Wear them out, toss buy new pair boom
