Drove an hour to Niagara Falls yesterday to go for a ride on the Bruce Trail along the Niagara Escarpment and end up at a Volkswagen show at one of the parks along the ridge.. Crouched down to adjust the tension on the 737s before embarking, and RRRRRRRRRRIP. Great. An hour form home, I've got clipless pedals on the bike, and I'm wearing Vans.

Ended up riding on the road to the show. Gratuitous bike shot. Picked this KHS frame up for my friend back in 97 at the end of the season when another friend signed with GT and was dumping all his gear. The bike (frame, anyway) was the Canadian National DH winning ride that year.

I've a pair of those and they too are weakening in a similar manner.......I bet they are your most used 20 year old shoes though!.....
 
Normally when this happens we'd say your shoes are laughing at you.

But these seem to be laughing at the guy behind you.
 
fmj, those frames were brilliant in there time. I had this one as part of a sponsorship deal, custom painted, and spec"d, it rode very well, in the end it was used for different rider scenes in the sprung videos.
