I'm having a frustrating time trying to get some help with my boots. I bought a rather expensive pair of full leather Asolo hiking boots a few years ago and have put only about 300 miles of section-hiking on them. Last fall on a 50-mile hike, the soles became detached from the boots halfway thru the hike. Duct tape and some shoe-goo got me home, but it was disappointing to have the boots fail like that after what I spent on them. There is still plenty of tread on them and several fellow hikers who looked at them said that it must be a manufacturer's defect for them to fail after only a few hundred miles and that Asolo should replace them free of charge.
Here is what the boots look like now: http://www.littlefrog.150m.com/asoloboots.html
I went to Asolo's web site at http://www.asolo.com but there is no toll-free number or even a customer service email address listed under the "contacts" link.
Does anyone know how to get ahold of Asolo without me having to make an expensive long-distance call to them? Also, does anyone have experience with their customer service?
