By the time these shipped I’ve had them for about 3 months when one of the top laces became unglued from the side. This lace really holds the foot in place as the main support for tension. This is not a standard wear and tear issue. The stitching is still intact and does not appear to have ever healed this in place. I reached out to Kizik about it, they didn’t want to work with me on an exchange, look into it, or seem to care. I was offered a standard 15% discount on a new pair of shoes. These have been discontinued recently, so I must have bought one of the final pairs. It’s clear that these shoes were never made to last and I’m seeing more and more similar reviews online of poor quality. As an act of good faith I asked if they would even do half off on another pair of shoes, they said no, so I started looking at other reviews. It starts with great first impressions, and then people realize these shoes are not made to last more than 3 months. I offered to send in my shoes so they can see the defect issue themselves, but they didn’t care other than offering the standard returning customer discount. Why would I want to buy another pair of shoes if this is the expectation on how long they last? They are hardly even broken in! Do your research, you’ll find a similar pattern.
