So i own a pair of Salomon Shogun boots and they do not come with a replaceable heel or toe. I was wondering how you can fix that wear and tear when that time comes.

If there isn't a removable toe or heel piece, then you buy new boots.

actually a high end shop can do a boot sole grind, meaning that they will grind the bottoms till they are flat, then attach new plates to the toes and heels, after that the heel and toe lugs need to be planed to iso din standard. gonna be 150-200 bucks.

If you can handle looking like a gaper and have the patience for them, buy cat tracks and stop the wear happening before it starts.
