Well lots of management speak but I just got my 3rd RM Williams pair of boots even though they cost 3 or 4 times an equivalent Chinese shoe. (maybe 6 or 7 times for the really bad ones) I am happy to pay a premium for a company that keeps all the process of production in Australia. There are other good shoe makers of course but I think the stench with QF is that exact problem, they are off shoring jobs and the public are not exactly sure they are supporting a real Australian company anymore, just my $300 worth (for the price of my boots!
)
And I wont need another pair of shoes for years and years is another bonus!
