perserving heel and soul using silicone
New boots showing wear after being worn 4 times. Would a coat of silicone protect against wear?
Is this a good question?

You may be able to use silicone to rebuild your worn outsole, though the success of this repair might depend on the product you are intending to use and the type of material your outsole is made out of (leather, rubber, etc.).
A tried-and-true product specifically used for shoe repair is Shoe Goo. Here are two guides to help you complete the repair:

If these are leather you can use several things:
These are made of hard plastic:

Here's something you might try. A bit costly I admit, but your shoes will wear down the pavement instead of the other way round ;)
