But- has yours cracked yet? I’ve seen a lot of people comment about this, but never seen it as a real issue, beyond boots that have lived on construction sites and are totaled all around. I picked up a pair of Thorogoods (my first pair of GYW shoes) about 2 months ago and have walked at least 150+ miles in them so far and don’t really see the welt being an issue (after all, at least it can be replaced if needed, ha).

This is maybe a more cheap redneck engineering approach - beefiest steel wool/metal dish scrubber, bar keepers friend and back end of a wooden spoon?

Seems like the grit combo of the above could be helpful since it looks caked on.

Maybe follow up with the coffee or denture clear the rest of the folks offered as advice

You’ll want 18/10 3-ply stainless (5 and 7 ply cost too much and take too long to head up, not worth the added cost IMO.)

Check out Demeyere, American Kitchen, All-Clad.

Depending on how big of a soup pot and large pan you want, you may be better off at a restaurant supply store for those.
