I usually go to the mountains about 2 times a week, 6-8 hrs excursions. . . it doesn't seem this much!!
In these 2 years I had to get them repaired 2 times. Customer service working fine (quick and professional) but now, as both the soles are opening (front side)."

My big complaint is the made in China on the box. After the green feet and membership for REI they tipped the scale at $231 for a boot made in China."
