Any way to fix a cracked gumboot? (slrpnk.net)

Knelt down to fasten my gumboots today before work and noticed they've started to crack around the base of my big toes, which sucks since I've only used them about 30 times. Might do a warranty claim but also want to extend the life of these as much as I can. Does anyone have any suggestions?

while we're on the subject, are there any brands that make gumboots with wide toe-boxes?
