        ^ Agreed, great read. Beauty in imperfection is exactly what I'm talking about.

        Don't get me wrong, I would not actively encourage things like stitching errors, what I am saying is that if they were my boots I would feel just as Jeff does. Also, I feel that (most) clothes and boots differ in this regard, I too would not take this kind of error on jeans or a shirt

          Completely agree Gav! 
          Personally, I like their character. If they were constructed in a manor where it would hinder their longevity that would be a whole other story. I am not perfect and neither are my boots and I can live with that.

              Just to add to my 2 cents, if I was totally wrong then absolutely no-one would drive Alpha Romeos, and the Honda Accord would be the biggest selling car in the world.

              God forbid.  Can you imagine a world like that?  A place where French cars are reviled simply because they're "unreliable".  It doesn't even bear thinking…

                          In the civilised world (not Texas), Alphas are famed/ notorious for a couple of things….

                          1. They have the worst dealer network in the world, if you send your car to Alpha to get fixed you can basically say that you are never going to see it again.

                          2. The electrics are terrible, and always break.

                          3. Many drivers claim that when they are good, when they are working, and if you get lucky; there is no finer driving experience in the world.

                                My 1st car was a 5 speed red 1989 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce and Ioved it until it shit the bed. Electronics were horrible but I have never drive a car that drive like that car. Including Porsche, BMW, Audi and Mercedes. Alfa are true drivers cars.
