that's how it was, I had them for several years in the boiler room where it was hot and dry, then I heard it's not good for shoes, so I started storing them in the cellar where it was kinda cold and damp... and then after a few trips it started falling off the bottom at the sole on the side... some parts rotted away... true, I went into snow with them.. but also sometimes when I still kept them in the boiler room I walked in snow with them, and it didn't happen...
thx
