There are different factories. The ones made in China are hot garbage.

Xero shoes. Your won't regret the purchase. Well made affordable and comfortable. Altra's suck. They start falling apart when you take them out of the box

I thought it was Alzheimer's, but I'm not sure, used an aluminum pot for rice for 30 years.

Reply to Anyone know of tights/pantyhose/stockings whatever you call them that doesn’t get a hole after one wear? by Bright_Nobody_5497
Sheertex makes amazing tights. Right now they only have black and some bright colors but they're about to drop nude colors. I bought when they were $35 over black Friday and they're definitely worth the money because you cannot break them! I'll be getting a nude color as well and then never need new ones again!

Mine just lost the thermal fuse yesterday so I splurged the 6$ to buy more fuses.

Funny how the post is just genuinely asking for advice on a better sub, and somehow your ego still got hurt enough to respond like this.
Imagine taking emotional damage over someone not exactly liking a fucking reddit sub. Gives off hard "if you don't like America just leave" vibes.
Anyway, have fun with the hurt ego lmao. Sub used to be better but I guess you had to actually be here when it was young.

You regularly post to /conspiracy and /prepper. You continue to act like this is over boot care.
You're the insane one. I'm just going to block you and hope you finally get one some meds for the schizophrenia and paranoia. Maybe if SHTF I'll find you and turn you into a loot drop too<3

That isn't gatekeeping. Do you, like, understand the word?

i wear vivobarefoot, lems, xero shoes and carets for dress shoes. i can’t put any of them in the bifl bucket. Xeros wear out quick, vivos soles wear out for me too quick and can’t be repaired, lems held up better for me than the others. Carets are great for minimal dress shoes that don’t look like clown shows, and they used to have resole program putting it in the bifl category for me, but from 2018 on they discontinued the resole program so again can’t put them in bifl category imo. In terms of bang for buck - vivos are great but $$$, lems and xeros are at least cheaper, and carets are super pricey but for dress shoes that serve a purpose looking professional in that environment, they at least offer value in that sense so they pay for themselves imo.

While Altras are comfortable, their durability leaves something to be desired. The traction ripped off the sole after less than 80 miles, and when I asked about warranty they said it was normal wear and tear, and this not covered. Comfy shoe, not even close to BIFL

There is nothing stopping you from posting and asking for product recommendations in this sub. A good portion of the front page of the sub is exactly that. The vintage item posts make the feed but if you actually visit the sub there is a lot of product discussion.

Aluminium pot inside probably heavily scratched :( . People say it causes cancer, but I’m sceptical.

Matsushita (now Panasonic) used to go by the National brand for some of their products, depending on the area. I think everything is just branded Panasonic now.
