    I’m on my second pair.  LL Bean replaced the first pair after the glue on the soles melted.  I’ve had the same problem with the second pair.  I re-glued the soles and heels myself after they began to loosen.  Then yesterday I came home from wading my local creek for smallies and found the heels were back somewhere in the Elkhorn.  I guess I’ll send these back to LL Bean, too, unless someone knows where I can get replacement bottoms for the Aqua Treads. I’m willing to try re-glueing them (again.)   But I’m thinking about going back to Gary Borger felt soles for my next pair of wading boots.  The bottoms wear out eventually, and I know about the problems with dydamo and whirling disease.  But at least I don’t have to deal with Shoe Goo, Barge Cement and various other things I’ve used to try to hold the Aqua Treads together.
