Are they actually taking a return? I still really want a pair of the service boots... just don't feel like dealing with the hassle. I think I might give them a chance though, though not three, if they'd actually stand by a return for defect.

Get over Dayton and spend your money elsewhere. This is coming from someone who went through crap getting a pair, making costly international calls and getting them shipped up and down from one part of the world to another.

Guess what, after a month I get a phone call telling me that they have stretched the left boot. I tell them that's not the problem as I have repeatedly stated over the phone and on e mail. Another month passes and I get the boots back. Re-lasted boot. Nice. Except.. the left foot is stretched noticeably. Left and right don't even look the same anymore. The left foot now not only is roomy, it looks swollen.

Holy shit.

Those people must be incompetent or something.

as the owner of a pair of service boots that were thankfully not botched (the workmanship still leaves much to be desired), i can safely say that the boots are not really worth the money. they're fucking heavy as hell. their only purpose in my wardrobe is as snow boots. invest your money in a better pair of boots.
