Propet Men's Outbound Boot - Waterproof Hiking Boots for Outdoor Adventures, Trail Walking & Camping

Very nicely designed boot, warm, dry, good traction, easy to take off and put on, all important for the harsh Montreal winter where I live. In general the quality seems high as well.HOWEVER, after first week of wearing, gaps began to appear between the upper and the sole on both boots. When you flexed the boot, the gaps opened up to more than 1/8 inch. It seemed that the gluing process was faulty. I bought some clear silicone caulking type glue designed for shoe repair and did my best to shove it into the gap. In the end, I was unable to completely seal the gaps. I've worn the boots for a few months now and so far the repair has held, but this is not what I expect for a boot costing as much as this. Propet lost a customer on this one for cutting one little corner on quality.
