                        glad to hear it sort of worked out D666. Hope the torn pair were just a fluke . . .

                              Why mine need replacing….

                              But this after 2 or 3 seasons serious abuse….

                                Is durability an issue with osb?  Second blowout I've seen. My old Minnetonkas never fell apart on me and I heaped abuse on them for years.

                                Think it, be it.

                                  Not that I know of.  I am super hard on shoes/boots.  I have wide feet and a high instep, so I place a lot of strain on boat shoes where this happened, and all the boat shoes I have owned go in exactly the same spot, short of commissioning a pair of bespoke Russells, it is something I have to live with.  I have just ordered 2 more pairs of boats from OSB, I would not be doing that if I thought they were sub-par.

                                    OK thanks for the explanation.  They and Yuketen are on the radar and that would affect my decision.

                                    And I know they made D666's blowout right by giving him a new pair.

                                        My boat insoles slide forward, almost an inch on the left and maybe 1/4" on the right. I sent them back to OSB and replaced the insoles. Excellent customer service.

                                            Yeah, the right wasn't really a problem but on the left the stitching on the insole was digging in to my heel.
