I was recently looking for some Goodyear welt boots and a amazon suggestion popped up in the search feed. I did click it to see what they looked like but right away though no way I would buy a nice boot from Amazon I doubt they would actually be Goodyear welt boots. This should concern amazon. If I am afraid to buy something then they are losing money. You would think they would want to bolster public trust in them.
I love Goodyear welt boots. I tend to only buy at Nordstrom anniversary sales, where boots such as 1000 Mile Wolverine or Redwing are often 30%+ off. I’m sure there’s cheaper deals for same brands, but the return policy makes it worth it in rare event of a defect. Now I just need to find a new cobbler—-mine closed shop during pandemic.
