From a different thread on the Debut, you got them only last Aug. What happened? Did they break down already? Or other problems?
Yup, that is true. A little of both. I've had a very difficult time with boots since I've started, getting misfit and then boots starting to break down. I've been through in this order Jackson Freestyle, Riedell Stride, Reidell 910 and now the Jackson Debuts all in about 2.5 years.
Issues that I'm currently having is I've developed a pump bump on my left heel which is making backward crossovers very difficult. I've also developed some bumps around the big toe on both feet. The tongue at first felt very stiff and difficult to break in until finally all the tongue padding compressed and it just feels like cardboard. It provides enough support but not comfort so I'm starting to add lace bite to my issues
Also, some glue has started to seep out into the lining.
My feet are somewhat difficult being 2 different length and two different heel widths
Having said that these have fit me better than any of the others and probably still have many months of life left in them. But given my feet issues and the fact that the opportunity arose to be able to get fitted at the factory I choose to get fitted for Avantas.
The quoted a lead time of 4-5 weeks and they were done in 4 weeks.
