My boots look the same after 6-12 months. So, if we slip and fall on our worn-out treads do you think we should pay our own way? Just wondering if you are now considering yourself grossly negligent for not having the proper footwear, as Mr. Tennis Shoes seems to be. Will you be paying your rescue fees, even though you didn't get a new pair a boots before the tread wore?
