Hello.. Pulled out THREE in one go! Then lost a fourth on the other boot. Took a chance,reinstalled new ones in the old holes,and added PU glue. Sure,good for one day.. Made new holes,1/4" inside of the old. Lost the two ones under the ball,on each foot, very soon! PUUURE CRAP!! You may note that it seems like Simms have two versions of the G3 Guide boot,as the front of mine doesn´t match the homepage photo.. Yours borano20
