these boots weren't purchased off amazon are were from a reputable company so while I agree that counterfeit products are an issue I would hope this is not the case and I'm inclined to believe this is not the issue. I'm definitely not going to use their conditioning and waterstop products from this point forward and hopefully a beeswax product will salvage them for a bit
