Problems with rubber boots cracking?

[mistertwister]

Hey guys, I currently have a pair of mickey mouse boots that I've been wearing for the better part of 10 years, but I'm seriously considering getting something new this year. I love the mickey's and probably won't get rid of them but I walk and tow my sleds by hand and the weight of the mickey's is a downside. I'm wondering if you all that have mucks/sorels etc. have problems with the rubber cracking?

Something that extends the life of those ~ before wearing, apply ArmorAll, do it often and store them away from any source of ozone.   Answers.   
Keep away from open frame electric motors.

Yup, given enough time it makes you really believe 'Nothing' is forever.

I was just more curious if I buy a pair I'm only going to get 2 seasons out of them or something. But I suppose they last longer if you take care of them.....just like anything

My Sorels are heavy as well. I have had them about 8-10 years now. Still in good shape. Only add some water proofing every other year.
