Anyone ever dealt with Meindl?

I have a pair of Meindl dovre extreme boots that I bought off the internet in July 2010.

The boots were only worn out shooting at the weekends during shooting season, they were kept clean and waxed and they don't show much wear and tear on the soles. They are now out of warranty.

 

Thing is they have cracked just where the leather meets the rubber at the toe joint of my right foot. I brought them to a meindl dealer who said they wouldn't be repairable, however they said that I should send them direct to the Meindl supplier in the UK. The shop also said Meindl are good to deal with customer care wise and they might replace them and then again they might not.

 

Has Anyone ever had any experience with them?

I've dealt with them, they where spot on replaced a pair that was leaking. I would send them back they might beable to mend them and the price will be a lot less than a new pair.
