We're now using reclaimed and synthetic rubber in these shoes there have been more of them this year and there will be more next year. Leather-soled shoes have had to be used in place of this rubber-soled footwear but shoes made of leather need more care than running shoes. When they don't get it they wear out more quickly; when they get wet they must be dried slowly, away from direct heat and they should be greased also. It's not always a case of poor quality; it's poor care. however, been maintained at the highest level consistent with the labour and materials available.

The processes, the machines and the lasts are different. highest quality leathers obtainable, leaving the other grades of leather for civilian use. Airmen need leather for jackets and mitts.
