Thank you to all who responded. The replies are listed below in regards to durable, tough soling material:
We use 9 Iron Herringbon. Our supplier is Ruby Leather. Phone # 800-866-7829.
Try to find a material called CHEVRON. You can call you nearest shoe
repair jobber and see if he has it. It glues very effectively with Masters.
Try the rib soling material from cooks out of Atlanta. No special glue
required.
I do not know if TOPY comes that thick, but it is very durable. Try
contacing ruby leather or Southern Leather. Jet set glue is a good
alternative to barge.
To strengthen shoe soles you can add a material called Sole Guard which is
a thin, hard layer which is less than 1/16 thick. This goes on the sole,
over the original rubber soling,
PEL SUPPLY CARRIES TWO ITEMS THAT YOU MIGHT FIND INTERESTING.
THE FIRST IS THE 1/4 HIGH ABRASION NON SLIP MATERIAL NORMAL ABRASION
IS 100 AND THIS IS 2000 ABRASION SO IT WEARS TOUGH. ITS PART NUMBER
IS 9912101321. WE SUGGEST YOU USE COLE DE SOLGNE WITH THIS MATERIAL.
WE ALSO CARRY 1/4 WIDE RIB IN A 18X36 SHEET IT IS 100 ABRASION WHICH
IS NORMAL ABRASION AND YOU CAN USE ANY ADHESIVE WITH THIS. ITS PART
NUMBER IS 9112101800. WE ALSO CARRY A VERY THIN DURASOLE CAPPING THAT
IS NON SKID AND IT COMES IN WHT AND BLACK. THE PART NUMBER IS CDSRWHT
