Good one. Personally, I think personal opinions and politics don't belong in business with a few notable exceptions. That said, when you choose to build your business on a platform of social justice and advocating against all that is wrong in the world you have committed your platform and business to doing that. Now that the JL debacle has landed in his backyard, Neil is suddenly ok with suborning it. It's 100% hypocrisy.
The bullshit with all of this, is that it isn't cancel culture. It wasn't one bad decision, or one remark received poorly. It's a repeatable, clear pattern that has been going on for a while. S&S would have likely remained quiet on the matter, once again, had one of their customers not asked them to speak to the issue. Its not a secret that Niel and JL are personal friends and do significant business together. To think that has no bearing on the situation is naive at best.
Due to their prior vocalization, I find it more reprehensible for an entity like S&S to fail to follow through on their advocacy. It certainly undercuts their prior efforts and is an example that in practice, they don't follow through when they have the opportunity. You might find it laughable, I find it despicable. Suffice to say, I wont be supporting either with my wallet. I have enjoyed seeing your new post history simping for JL. You are certainly free to support whatever entity you choose, but don't try to act like this is all a witch hunt. Just have the integrity to own that you don't actually care and that it wont affect your consumerism.

The "proof" that John is racist:
1. He doesn't like stuff made in china.
That's it. That's the list.
I think historically they offered both D & E but everything the past few years has been the E width. Not 100% certain of this though as it's been a while since I've bought a pair.Totally not derailing us back onto topic
https://viberg.com/pages/last-guide#310 has the 310 always come in two width options? does anyone have any pics of the D width/narrow width version of the last?
Maybe its still available as an MTO option then. I think I'd give it a chance if I MTO'd the 310 last actually.I think historically they offered both D & E but everything the past few years has been the E width. Not 100% certain of this though as it's been a while since I've bought a pair.
For an MTO if they have the last I can't imagine(although you never know) they would have a problem accommodating you. I assume they have greatly reduced variables to maximize scale in the past 3-5 years but MTO wouldn't be subject to that kind of decision.Maybe its still available as an MTO option then.

I would hope so, though it would be nice to have an inkling of how the narrower version looked before dropping that kind of money. I wonder if they would do 145 oxfords or the 160 lasts for MTO since those are discontinued technically?For an MTO if they have the last I can't imagine(although you never know) they would have a problem accommodating you.

Lol. He scrubbed all of his social media accounts when the world finally figured out who he was. He unfollowed dozens of racist right wing accounts on insta and replaced them with more industry accounts.The "proof" that John is racist:

Anyways, I’ll drop it. But when you have to unfollow a bunch of racists and xenophobes on social media to clean up your image... I think it kind of speaks for itself.Lol.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but Neil & John are close friends from what I’ve heard.Obviously everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I'm not sure I understand why Neil felt it was his place to defend JL. Makes me question giving business to S&S going forward...
I have a pair of the bourbon Horsebutt Viberg x Miloh Shop boots. I love them. They are aging nicely. While they describe the leather as thick, the boots are leather lined. That said they are great boots.Viberg - Dark Brown Waxed Flesh Service Boot 2030 Last
This Bourbon Horsebutt Service Boot features a full-grain heavyweight Horsebutt that includes the shell portion of the hides. In terms of leathers it is heavier than usual, but exemplifies the amazing character and inconsistencies that typically result from the vegetable tanning process in this...milohshop.com
do I buy these which are left in my size or get a pair of white‘s in cinnamon waxed flesh.
