OK thanks for the explanation.  They and Yuketen are on the radar and that would affect my decision.

And I know they made D666's blowout right by giving him a new pair.

They were awesome. Big fan of OSB

My boat insoles slide forward, almost an inch on the left and maybe 1/4" on the right. I sent them back to OSB and replaced the insoles. Excellent customer service.

Mine does that on only one of mine. Doesn't really bother me all that much

[veloaudio]

Yeah, the right wasn't really a problem but on the left the stitching on the insole was digging in to my heel.

Just got my trail oxfords back from reconditioning it took less than 2 weeks. I had crepe soles put on them.

Like the crepe, wonder how my brown oxfords would look. still need to send in my boats for new insoles, damn I'm lazy

[derivative666]

Crepe is really comfy to walk on but,
man do they get dirty as fuck.

It's like a pair of Clark desert treks. The gumsole is great, but its a magnet for dirt

you can say that again

@derivative666:

and that again too! 

[ohighyo]

Hence the trade off, Comfort for dirty soles.

Told ya.

[mclaincausey]

I don't think they look bad dirty.

[bagley920]

The Vibram soles don't exactly repel dirt…
