Any problem with the lace system breaking on these? I'd hate to be 20 miles deep in the backcountry to find out!

I've had 3 pairs of North Face Boa shoes and the lacing system has never malfunctioned. In fact, it was the shoe fabric that wore out to a point that I couldn't wear the shoe any longer, not the Boa system. These are GREAT shoes for someone who likes to get up and go, without the hassles of tying laces. It provides a better all around fit than regular laces too....but really, it's the lazy mans dream!The BOA system seems strong. I have pulled them outof the box all the parts seem fine. The only thing that MIGHT be week would be the actually tighting knob.
