    Nowadays they fake leather boots and shoes with tons of foam and plastic, the soles aren’t even really threaded: it’s glued in place. The top thread is fake. You can’t get a good pair of leather shoes for less than $600 anymore, last time I had a cheap usable pair was before Rockport was bought out and converted.
