I had a pair of these Vasque Mantras. Great fit, right out of the box, comfortable, great support. Good for around town, too.

Then, after wearing them for about 3 months, they experienced a catastrophic failure. The soles came off!

I called Vasque and they had ne return them (at my cost) . They quickly sent me a new pair at no cost. However, they sent the wrong size . So I called again, and they sent a pair in the right size (12) again with no cost, and they said I did not have to return the others. Service was very fast.

So the fact that they fell apart is scary, but the excellent customer service more than makes up for that, I think.
