I bought these highly rated boots because the new Breeze III was a pale imiation of the Breeze II and hurt my feet- and now I have to return them as even after a break in period, the Mantras are still rubbing my left foot raw on the left side and top right. I have had many pairs of Vasques for many years, and now my last 3 pairs have sucked and I am 0-4 (2 pairs of Breeze III- both pairs hurt my feet badly- a pair of Snowblime, and now the Mantra). Before, every pair worked awesome out of the box. I feel like something has changed in the way they make the shoes- and other reviewers have echoed this. What's up, Vasque?
