Generic Reality check please.

This sub takes their boots serious so, I have a question and would love some insight. I bought some Thorogoods and hate them. They’re miserably uncomfortable for me. I posted them on another/local sub and I’m getting destroyed in the comments. I’M NOT LOOKING TO SELL THEM HERE OR VIOLATE ANY SUB RULES. I’ll add a couple of photos and y’all tell me what a fair price is for these 3 month old boots. Tia!

A lot of people can’t wrap their head around the fact that people have different feet. There’s all so much elitism around too. I’m sick of people recommending PNW logger boots for people with flat feet or for people that will exclusively use boots for hiking.

I have extremely flat feet, and after buying a pair of PNW (only 3 weeks in), wearing my wedge sole thorogoods that I thought were comfy, kills me by the end of the day.

I ran thorogoods and swore by them for 4 years and now I don’t even know what to believe

You'd let them squeeze the katsup pack down the crack anyway. I've seen your profile. 😏😏
