I bought a pair of Adidas football boots (£40) for my son. On their very first use, they lost a study. My son reports that it is quite uncomfortable wearing the boots now. I took the boots back to the Sports Direct shop in Scarborough, expecting them to accept that this was their mistake and the boots were not fit for purpose - like I would expect every other retailer in the country would do. But instead they claimed the mistake was mine as I did not specifically tighten the study and I had not anticipated that they were poorly finished by the factory (again not my fault). If this really was my responsibility why was I not told to tighten the studs by the shop assistant as I bought them, or better still why did they not check them while they were checking they were to correct size. It would have taken no more than 45 seconds. I will never walk into this dreadful shop again.
