I never got blisters or achy feet and the fabric stood up to a lot of abuse. I just wanted to write and say thanks for making great shoes that last! And I'm just kidding about the world domination, sort of...

A gift pack! How nice. True, it consisted of a pen, a carabiner (NOT to be used for climbing), and some stickers, but it's the thought that counts.
