Authenticate Those SHOES

Can I ask a really silly question about some shoes I've seen on ebay.

They have what looks like a black rubber sole attached to them. Are these authentic shoes that somebody has just had soled to prolong the life of the shoe, or does it indicate that they are fake. I personally cannot imagine going to the cobblers and getting a rubber sole attached to my choos!

They might have gotten it attached to the sole. Do you have any pics?
