Default Anyone ever resole their boots?

I have a pair of Rocky Bear Stalkers that are about 10yrs old....the uppers are still in great shape, and they are very comfortable. For some reason the sole has begun to deteriorate and just fall off in spots. ???

I usually don't bowhunt out of these (I have rubber lacrosse), but do use them alot later in the season so I was thinking about getting them resoled. Anyone ever have it done? Suggestions? Recommendations? Ideas?

I would keep them as backups after that (probably use them as work boots/snow boots mostly) and get a new pair strictly for hunting.I just hate to pitch em if I can get em resoled for $50 or something. I've had great success over the years using my "hunting" boots only for hunting, I normally get 9-10yrs out of them. Never had a sole fall apart like these did. Can't complain though...10yrs and plenty of use.
