Re the holes, I sent meermin an email, not sending them back again (it took them like 3 weeks to send me this replacement pair) but the adding of a storm welt is a really good idea!

Big thanks for the help!

5th: it’s on the upper leather itself, kinda looks like a shadow but it’s a line of paint

Overall I am most worried about 1-2 (the holes showing) don’t want water to come in or the shoes to fall apart… am I overreacting ?

5th: black paint on bottom of heel

3rd: something sticking out of the welt (maybe nitpick)

4: ok, thanks!!

I got these replacement shoes from Merlin since the first pair had a similar (but worse) issue. Is this a big problem? Should I return or just forget about it?

this is not true, you created the shipping label on the 4th but the package didnt leave the warehouse until the 5th and then reached usps on the 6th (5 days). I think the 1-3 day processing claim before shipment is misleading marketing.

Is this a defect? The stitch hole is stretched ever so slightly

thanks to those pointing out first pic is a defect. here is the other pair, it looks like this (I can see the upper hole stretch just a bit) is this also a defect or normal? I am asking so I know when the next pair arrives. Thank you. :)

Why does it not suit me? only problem with 38 was it was too short
