Do they still warranty their duck boots for life? My grandmother had a pair and when the leather or rubber would fail, she would ship them up to Freeport and they would fix them for free. Those damn things were over 50 years old when she checked out.
I don't know. I live in a marshy area now,so the ones I order have a rubber bottom and leather uppers. Been wearing the current pair around 4 years so far,and I',ll be shocked if they don't last another 4 years. Or even longer. All I remember about the warranty is that it was a really good one and unnecessary.
Can't beat them for service,either. I have very wide feet,and the first pair they sent me were too tight,so they when I called them to get a new pair they sent me the next size larger out that very day with expedited shipping,and told me to use that box to send back the first pair,and the return shipping was even free.
Flat out,I don't care who else sells these boots because it is irrelevant to me. I will be buying my next pair from LL Bean,also.
BTW,as for being expensive,the last pair of these boots I bought from Target cost almost 30 bucks,and didn't last 2 years before the rubber was cracking,the glue was coming apart,and my feet were getting wet. I THINK I paid about 80 bucks for the Bean boots,and have already been wearing them for 4 years. You tell me which are cheaper.
If you want to buy boots or shoes made in America that are top quality,buy with confidence from LL.Bean.
