l've got a mate here, and l inspected his shoos...chinese made footwear with glued soles. l discovered that his shoos have had the soles come apart, so l gave him a grand lecture on the evils of glued rubber soles and talked about how the Chinese govt stole the gloo from his shoos, and l told him to start buying stitched leather sole shoos like Church's and John Lobb. l've been telling him to buy Lobb for years, but he never listens. l've been telling my old man to buy Lobb for years too, but he never listens either..he says that John Lobb are old fashioned shit. l tell all my mates to buy John Lobb, but none of them ever listen. l tell my mum to buy John Lobb bespoke mens shoos, but she never listens either.
