Wolverine 1000 Mile Boots

[Rollo]

Total bullshit, get your money back or tell wolverine their shitty product failed and demand a good one (The replacements seem to be ok imo )

[Finn666]

so you're actually happy these broke eh?

[Hipporaven]

Wow lucifer! These look bad.

Mine are not that far, I guess because I gave them straight from the shop to a cobbler. But I can see them getting a bit loose at the heels.
I would definitely not buy Wolverine again and can not recommend people to get a pair. At 400€ one could expect more. Even though the leather is amazing, you can find Horween somewhere else…

…I managed to return mine on the last day for a full refund. Despite being ridiculously comfortable, you can tell they're not built to last.

500usd? Thatis pretty ridiculous. I got my white's in horween chromexcel leather for only 399usd..

It's best that u inform wolverines about their shitty shoes, and demand a way to resolve the problem man..

Got mine for ~250 a few years ago at a local store named Halls.  Definitely worth that price but not 400-500!

[Rollo]

Yeah, only paid $220 AUD for mine about a year and a half ago, replaced the first pair and got a second pair that are going strong, mostly wanted to sample the chromexcel before I invested in a pair of vibergs in the same leather. That being said they are still the most comfortable boots I've owned.

Man I could've sworn that was written by a spambot…

^^say what?

[bagley920]

That actually reads like a)a drunk Irish man, b)an aboriginal tribe or c)an oompa loompa, either way, NO CLUE!

[thomasnunnally]

Haha, yea, I find it suprising and funny that blutooth has been lurking for over a year, and that is only the third post.  And yes, that reminds me of spam for sure.

[Giles]

bluetooth is not a spambot, he happens to be one of my best customers and visits about once every two weeks usually leaves laden down…

Well before reading this thread about the heel issue, I bought a pair of the wingtips.  I just really liked the cut/style of this boot.  I tried selling them (bought them a little too big) but w/ no takers decided to man up and keep them.  I put in some jell inserts, they actually fit great now and to be honest its a well made shoe.  I just hope I don't have any issues down the road.

great shots!

[Onairda]

@kit99bar:

great shots!

Hey thanks.  Does anyone know where I can pick up some waxed laces that match the ones that come w/ the boot?  Its so stupid but these laces are too short to lace the boot up all the way.

[Onairda]

quick google search and found this

^ They don't have the same size flat waxed laces.  I've looked everywhere for replacements and nobody is selling them.  You can get free replacements from Wolverine though if you send them an email..

[Onairda]

Smittybat  Thanks for the heads up.  I emailed them not expecting to hear anything back for at least a month.  But 2 days later on xmas eve I received this:

Thats crazy good customer service.  Im really impressed.

[madmonday]

that is really cool.  glad it worked out for you
