Seems a bit like this is the sort of question you should ask before you buy something... |

Best boots I've had. Really stiff, but still good in the park. |

Mate of mine bought a pair last year. He had issues with the internal centre seams rubbing for a few days which was pretty sore but once they had 'bedded in' he was OK with them.

id say its a rumour, as a rule, boots dont just fall apart, especially high end signature models. |

The only pair of Vans I ever had did actually fall apart. The material just started to come off, my feet got wet, they looked terrible after a while. They got about half a seasons usage out of them first.
They were a pair of Daniel Francks and it was like back in 2004, so maybe they've improved materials. But it was enough to make me never want to buy Vans boots again. |

My last pair of boots lasted 43 days last season, my Wiig's are still going strong after 70+ days and I can see them lasting a long time into this season.
I will buy another pair when theses give up. |

Why would you assume that? |

No experience with the Wiig per se, however, it's the Danny Kass boot, rebranded after he went to Nike. I rode them for a few seasons and loved them - super comfy. |

because its a 'signature boot' i.e higher in the range |

Why? You said below 'boots dont just fall apart' so you must have had a bad pair. Send the back and get them changed. |
