A crack in the sole. -
Vortec - 21-02-13
Yesterday i popped the tags of my grey "suede and snake" pair. When i put my feet in it i fel a strange bump in the inner sole. So i removed the laces so i can put my hand in the top of the shoe to feel what was the problem. I had to remove the inner sole a bit and foud out there was a crack in the sole of the shoe.
Because the problem is in the nose of the shoe i can`t make good photo`s of it but you can see there is something wrong. Behind the piece of sole there is a hole with i think glue in it so i can`t push the bursted sole back.
Anyone had something like this before? I bought them from Size so I think i have to send the shoes back to them? Problem is my English, i don`t know how i can make the problem clear so i hope you guys understand my explanation so i can send this text to Size.
Thanks in forward,
Jurriën!

Mate, just a bit of glue dripped on it. You could send them back and you have every right to a refund. Or, you could dip a cotton tip/bud in acetone and rub it over the lump, leave for a minute the scrape it off with your nail.

Good luck with the fix!
I've had a pair split underneath recently... Very sad

Thanks for the tips. I want to send them back and get a refund, so i make this letter to send to Size. You guy`s think this is an acceptable letter since i`m not that great in the English language and i don`t know this letter cover the whole problem. Critics are welcome.

Dear Size?,
The 11th of january i ordered a pair of adidas Superstar “suede and snake†in the grey color. Due to weather circumstances i`d waited till yesterday to try them on. When I put the left shoe on I found out that there was a strange bump in the top of the shoe. So I removed the laces and took the sole out to found out there was a crack in the innersole. Behind the crack was another bump so I could not simply put the cracked piece back in the hole. The crack is in the sole under the normal sole so I can`t just put another sole in it.
In the attachment you can find some pictures I took but because of the difficult angle the pictures are not so clear.
I think it is an production error and I hope to hear what I can do with my pair of unwearable shoes from you.
Sincerely,
Jurriën
Order No.

Better than what most will probably say when contacting them, don't think you'll have any drama with getting a refund mate

Damn, I think I got that wrong J. Sorry, it just looked like a lump of glue.. so they deliberately tried to cover up a chunk of sole that had fallen out?

I can send the supes back and Size will send them to their inspections team. So i think it will end well..
Only i think the shipping costs will be for my account.
