I'm not expecting everyone to be sunshine and rainbows. I'm not green to the fact it's hard work, but what I won't stand for is the sexist caveman mentally that seem to creep in to every post. 

 

 

 

 

What are you going to do about them? Argue on the Internet?

Best not to feed the trolls.

Good for you for giving it a go. Gender is irrelevant though. You're either useful or you're not.

My Pfanner Zermatts are lasting well .......

 I'm happy to hear that mate.

Respectfully, you are retired though...

@HAIX Footwear UK thanks for posting, interesting read. 

Have you given any thought to increasing the durability of boots? This isn't targeted at you specifically but it seems that boots in general aren't standing up to the test of time like they used to. I'm lucky to get a year out of a pair of saw boots these days where a few years back 2 years was fairly reasonable. Believe me I'm not working any harder than I was back then. 

The cynics might acknowledge that its simply not good business to make a product last too long, but when you're paying around £200 a pair I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a decent life span.
