Is there such as thing as shoe warranty? Besides factory defect? I'm a righty and us righties usually tear apart our left shoe. ie, the left shoe's front and along the side of the left-toe(from dragging the L-shoe lunging into the net etc...) I've even seen pictures posted here of old shoes with holes along the inner-side of the left toe To get back on track of my question, I noticed I've torn a gap on my right-shoe on the outside, next to my pinky toe. (I've had these shoes for about about 9 months and they see about 4-6hrs of play a week) The pinky toes jokes aside, can anyone tell me if this is a common area for tears on badminton shoes? If not, is this something I can address with warranty claim? Curious.
