This is just a message to those looking at boots. I purchased the Scarpa Grand Dru's in mid-August 2018 and the stitching on the back of the boot has come out, letting water and moisture in, as well as an eyelet is leaking at the toe. I am in the warranty process currently but the initial submission resulted in them saying that these were outside of the Warranty period of 12 months, which is frankly incredible given that these boots are $500, half a grand!! Here are the images of the email correspondence, I called in today to speak to a manager since they never replied on email, so it's developing. I've had La Sportiva's in the past and they take into consideration the price of the boot in warranty situations it seems and it's a much smoother process to get things rectified.
I'm just bummed that they basically want to say that their boots are disposable after a year, even their higher-end more expensive ones. I'll keep this thread updated on the outcome on this second go around with a manager....
