Why it's buy-it-for-life
One owner wore a single pair daily for years across demolition, masonry, and general construction labor on concrete and uneven terrain before replacing them, praising the wool liner, comfort, and rocker sole design; the leather upper and construction held up well past the point the outsoles wore out, and other redditors note the boots are worth resoling to extend their life further.

These are the Zamberlan Vioz lux gore Tex RR boots made in Italy.
Get the old ones resoled. Then start switching pairs every day, both will last 4x as long!
Get yourself a pair of zamberlan vioz gtx rr. They break in and feel amazing after a few days of wear. Best decision I've ever made going to them.
I just picked these up at the REI garage sale for 45$ - I almost cried
