Merrell Women's Long Trail

Same failure in my wife's boots. She loved them until they came apart after about 5 years of mild use. Okay, five years, but here's the kicker... Merrell will only stand behind any of their footwear for one year. They say that is "industry standard". After that, they will give you $25 bucks for repairs. Can you imagine paying $250 bucks for some leather backpacking boots and having major issues after a year and getting $25 and a "sorry". I won't make that mistake again.
