I'm done with NB. NEVER again

I purchased a pair of NB work shoes off ebay. Brand new, in the box from a reseller that purchased directly from NB.

Two weeks later, one cracked across the sole. The next week, the other shoe cracked.

NB refused to cover them under warranty since "I" didn't buy directly from them.

**** NB They burned a 30+ year customer over a pair of $110 shoes.

I have an incredible difficult time finding shoes that fit me properly. SAS are wonderful, last a long time, but they are EXPENSIVE.

Recently I found Adidas Lite Racers suit me well, and at 50 bucks a pop, they are reasonably priced.

Her opinion matters to me.

Yours does not.
