Yea, I've done that a few times

I'm trying to determine where the line of abuse it though. So I replace some spiked felt boots for free and now I need a new pair as they really don't last all that long.

It's not like they should last forever, and for a hundred bucks you're not buying perpetual service...or are you?

I don't think it is abuse if it only lasts less than 2 months, if you wore it and used it for it's life expectancy than returned it, it is abuse.

No issues there, I'm talking about things that wear out, but don't have a very defined life expectancy.

I just found a 6" hole in mine, the hard way...wtf

$30 to fix them, I was going to just buy another pair while these get repaired, but 0 in stock!

Used hard and put away dirty....
