Don't buy Forma Adventure Boots - No warranty recourse

At the end of October 2020 I bought a pair of Forma Adventure boots for my trip to Namibia. Three days into the trip the heel part of the sole had come loose. I immediately took a picture and showed them the damage. These three days were road riding as we camped just over the border. Spirit told me to bring in the boots after I returned which I did. They sent it off to the manufacturers which sited wear and tear and rider damage. This was not the case during the first three days. I could not keep the boots in a box for the next three and a half weeks as they were my only pair of riding boots. As a show of good faith they glued it back together which has damaged the leather part of the boot. For a pair of boots that cost over R4500 I would expect a little more from them. I now have a pair of boots that have been glued together with no guarantee should the rest of the sole come apart. I like the boot however when something goes wrong you have no recourse.
