      they offered to fix free of charge, which is very nice of them.  However, Im still baffled about the glued welt and fake stitching.  Tony skipped that in our exchange.  I'll send them in to get fixed, but Im seriously let down that beneath the surface there are some serious corners being cut.  Someone please correct me if Im wrong, but shouldnt the welt be stitched down, and then sewn to the part where the sole is glued?

        I hate to be negative again on the OSB thread, I know they are popular and I do enjoy their designs, but OSB is using bonwelts in some of their shoes. C'mon man.

        Think it, be it.

          learn something new everyday.  i had no idea what the heck a bonwelt was. . . i still like Oakies & am hoping they can get any production issues together.  it's hard being under the microscope of the internet male super informed forum/clique consumer.

            I 2nd Monday I think Oakstreets are great. It's hard to find a casual shoe that carries the comfort of an OSB

                  I'm no shoe genius, so I have some questions. Do whites and viberg all have a Goodyear welt? It seems like all their boots are priced well over double what a pair of oakstreet will run you, Doesn't that kinda justify why maybe oakstreet cuts that corner?

                          George practically walked these through the factory.  One he rejected, so we are an 8.5 short until it is remade…
