I'd say you should expect at least 125-150 days as a minimum. It all depends on how you treat them, and the durability/wearing of that specific boot..etc.

Personally, my boots are older than me. My dad had them, I tried them on, and they fit me perfectly. Bought a pair off ebay for $20 (his were worn out from 15+ years of use), and have at least 100 days on them now. A little bit heavier than modern boots, but a very good fit, and nice and warm.

The Cattracks will protect your boots when walking in the parking lot/on other hard surfaces, but they can be a bit of a pain. A good idea is to spend an extra $20-30 when buying the boots and get a set or two of replacement heels. (I can't do that for my boots, but my school has a small CNC, so I made some for myself).
