Tony how the hell did you come up with "the Moddack(or sounds like) estuary" ?? This the worst bastardised Welsh place name I have heard, wish the English would not try to say Welsh place names, they have not a clue, best to shut up, "estuary by Barmouth" is better, but don't say it like you know it, then totally fuck it up, as you do, good clear vid tho' I enjoyed it.

Thanks Tony, you've just convinced me not to buy these boots. There are two issues with them that I can see: Velcro wears out. It should only be used as a secondary fastener IMO. Secondly, I've seen reviews of these boots as sold by GhostBikes with this same issue of the soles separating from the upper. That's most likely nothing to do with the way you're using them. It's everything to do with the quality of the manufacture. Read the Sale of Goods Act. It clearly states that a product should be fit for purpose and free from manufacturing defects. You should ALWAYS return EVERY product that fails in any way within a reasonable timescale. But in this case, the important question to ask is: Should the sole of a motorcycle boot (or any footwear) ever separate from the upper, and if so, under what circumstances? In the absence of any evidence of abuse, your rights to a replacement or refund (in certain cases) is guaranteed. Also they may well try to tell you that your guarantee is limited in some way. Remember that the terms and conditions have no bearing on the law. You might however have difficulty trying to get a replacement now you've affected these repairs. Plus, you're admitting to possibly causing the issue...!
