Cheap Shoe Laces / Replacements Don't Fit Eyelet
Cheap laces will need to be replaced. THE PROBLEM - Replacement hiking boot laces don't fit through the narrow metal eyelet at the top of the shoe. Very good shoe otherwise.

Footwear
Albany has the only footwear that lasts. I work on my feet everyday and hike weekends. All other brands failed several times a year. I get 2 years out of my LLBEANS.
