That thread is pretty amazing at times. I'm pretty sure that a lot of the complaint posts on the Wolverine thread are from people who have never worn a pair of real shoes or boots before and have no idea what to expect or how to look after them. Mass generalisation, I know but ...
Just thought I'd put it out there that it seems like it really was a one-off thing, especially since I made a post teasing people who complain about slight defects over on the Wolverine 1000 thread. It's amazing how when it comes to high quality work boots, people kvetch like crazy about even the slightest inconsistency, blemish, or "omg, it's creasing where my foot bends!" but with Filson, everyone seems a lot more easy going about how these are work bags, need care, and will get worn in and look gorgeous. And these are at the same price point, more or less.
