I don't know the details very well, but I bought these for my daughter a few years ago, and she didn't seem to like them, so she didn't wear them much. Therefore, there isn't much wear and tear on the soles. For some reason, one of the shoelaces is frayed and weakened, so I think you should replace the laces. These are used items, so please understand and purchase them.
