Yes, buy better boots. Those terrible.
I work for Atlanco, we do not service end users. The CSRs will just send you to the dealer.

We have dealers to stand behind the product. That's what they are there for. Atlanco is a B2B company. We don't sell to the public and don't service end users because we have dealers. It's a very common business model and silly that you'd question it knowing there are authorized dealers in place to help him. They are instructed to handled situations like this. They communicate with the customer, handle the situation and the dealer deals with Atlanco for their part.
Do you drive to the GM plant when your car is acting up too?
Whatever. I don't even work in sales. I'm just telling the OP what his options are. Go back to the dealer, get them to do a return, they'll do a RMA to Atlanco. Everyone comes out fine. If he wants to call and complain then call. He'll get directed to go to the dealer he purchased them from for a solution.
They are cheaply made boots. Everyone in the LE, Fire, EMS ect... knows it. That's why they are cheap compared to most boots. You'd laugh if I told you what they cost to make. It's not a matter of standing behind the product, it's a matter of business protocol and not having the OP waste his time.

I catch hell at work for spending on boots. I swear by Danner Boots. I wear mine every day to work the harsh concrete environment of the Atlanta International Airport ramp as an AMT for Delta.
No, but if somebody has a problem with something I sell them, or make for them, I make it a priority to fix it, personally.
(Irony: I will not even rent a GM product due to past issues.)
I just read about some 5.11 boots lately that are supposed to be quick dry jungle type boots. Not sure if they make black, or if they have a track record yet. I think they were about $140.

I wear steel toe boots for work, and I also wear them on the weekends when I'm working at home or in my shop. I have bought cheap boots in the past but have learned to spend more and not worry about my boots/feet afterwards.
And that is an awesome way to do business but I'm guessing you're not a multi million dollar international company. We have dealers all over the world. We equip some country's entire military and police forces. So while you handle your stuff personally we screen and allow dealers to handle that type of thing. It's just big business.
