Defective shoes

<p>On 14 Dec 2015 I bought a pair of Adidas AX2 HIKING shoes.To my understanding this is a very good shoe and I am a very big fan of Adidas for years now.In Feb 2016 the inside of the shoe(heel area) started to come apart.March I did not use them at all as I was on vacation for 3 and a half weeks.On 24 May 2016 I took it back to Totalsports in The Grove Shopping Centre.Tumelo the salesman/supervisor also agreed that there is something wrong with the shoes.The guys from DUE SOUTH next to Totalsports also looked at it and agreed that the shoes are defective.He told me he will notify the Adidas rep so that he can come and look at the shoes.On 28 May 2016 Tumelo phoned my wife to tell her that they can't refund me because according to the Adidas rep the damage is because of normal "wear and tear".Never in the 15 years that I wear Adidas clothes and shoes did I see this happening before.</p>
