Gear Review
Great shoes but laces getting crappier it seems.

I'm on my 4th pair of Wings (I love the feel of this shoe) but I have to admit that the laces in the last couple of pairs sucked. I replaced the laces in the last pair twice and I just replaced the laces in my newest pair yesterday and they are only about a month old! The laces are a pain in the rump to replace and it can't be done easily in the field. In addition, unless you have a really cool retailer who will hook you up, the lace kits cost about $10CAN. I hear the models with plastic lace guides are better. If I have to change these laces again within an unreasonable timeframe I'll be changing models or going back to Montrail.
