My tibets have been mint. Hundreds of km on them. Hunted in them almost every single weekend this last year and year before, including 95km in 2 weeks over the roar. Have minor peel on the rand on the side of the boot but seems to be caused by the jagged terrain and rocks of the place I hunt the most. Most boots will loose the sole if not used enough as the glue goes hard from under use. If you read the care instructions it states the boots must be worn at a minimum every 3 months to keep the glue supple and the leather treated regularly to keep it from splitting and cracking. The same would be for the rand, if the runner dries out on top of dry leather I doubt any kind of glue would hold it together
