are you lacing them tigher or looser?
otherwise, I too would be confused.

I felt like they made it right. I had worn the boots hard and they performed well.

same problem with same socks ive always worn, and i lace them as tight as possible and ive always have. they dont feel as stiff as they used to but if ive worn them out already then im not impressed. ive had em a few years but i know i dont wear them near as much as some other folks.
Like I said, they acknowledged the fact that they had worn out quicker than advertised. I felt like they went above and beyond by doing what they had.
Boots don't come with a lifetime warranty. A proper fit, goes a long ways on the lifespan of any boot.

Alot of people sit in a office all winter long then when spring/summer hits they hit the woods expecting there feet to be just the same as if they were at the end of September
Not saying this us the case at all but something to consider

Are your feet soft from the winter ??

i guess that could be something that is happening, i called kenetrek to see if they had any ideas and they didnt other than send them in. so i guess im going to just start with the soft feet idea and start wearing them every day for awhile and then graduate to other options of increasing cost from there if its not working. the only thing i get nervous about is screwing around with these for too long and have them not feel any better and then have to get a new pair of boots just before season.
thanks for all the suggestions and info

She used a pair of heal only, gel insoles that completely made the slippage go away.
They are clear and have a small green or blue area under the heel.

The Bob sole is unbeatable and has a wide stable base.
Perhaps they don't last as long but while they are up and running they are my pick.
I've recently had both Crispi and Kenetrek in multiple sizes on around the house.
No thanks.
The best boot is the one that works for you.
Over the years my Danners have gotten the job done.
