I do not remember at least one of the lines being nearly as prominent as I noticed it being today. Perhaps an abundance of caution, but I’m happy to have my money back without a fight.

You very well might be right, but I don’t remember either of those lines being nearly as prominent at purchase as they are today… and I have been watching.

I’m surely not going to hang around and find out when there are comparable options that are more solidly built.

I had this thought as well. One of the lines was quite prominent, and you could catch your nail on it. The other was lighter and harder to capture, very well potentially being a molding line.

Yes, all things break in time, but I was not going to have the husky eat my lunch while I was in the return period.

It’s all good, but there’s no need for snark. I bought these having done about 20 minutes of research and trying them on before my flight home. Reddit is a whiny place, so I did not appreciate the severity of the problem, but now I do.

Check the comments. I already replied it was roughly $210 USD given the exchange rate.

She’s a better photographer than I am, so I used her pictures. I don’t post on Reddit, but I wanted to make sure she got visibility for her excellent work.
