What korkers models are you guys having issues with the soles coming off. I've had them somewhat pop out of the thingies on the side of the shoe but the sole never actualy comes out or off the shoe so it's really fine. I just need to occasionally take them off to take out any small rocks or debrit that get lodged in there and it's very rare that I have to do that. I also love that I can go back and forth between the large carbide studs and studded felt. The carbide studs are great for bumble weed but unecessary most of the time.

for those having issues with wearbars bending, it really depends on the type of soles you have. The softer the sole, the more the screws will bend - and by "bending" I think you mean "folding" under body weight? as these screws are pretty tough to "bend". Also, the more screws per sole, the better weight distribution you'll have on each screw. I know some that use 40+ lugs per sole and have little issue.
Simms boots with vibram soles work very well with wearbars. I've also had good experiences using wearbars with korker boots as these soles have that hard orange plastic throughout it's length.
