Dear sundrunk,
I have a pair of LL Bean boots with carbide studded soles made by the Five Ten Company that I am almost certain were purchased in the Spring of 2005 making them 6 years old. The sole material is identical to the material pictured with the addition of studs.

The material was actually invented in the mid to late 1980's for use on rock climbing gear, and Five Ten holds the patents for it.

It's been around for a while, of that I am certain.
