I have a pair of brown nubuck grogues and a black pair of 6i boots since 5yrs ago , and they still look pretty smart

I just bought a pair of the 10i Oxbloods in Glasgow today. The shop sold both the made in England and the foreign crap. The owner of the store showed me both and talked about the differences and to see them side by side, the made in England ones really stand out as a better quality boot.

"The original. These are a direct replica of the very 1st boots to roll of the production line on 1/4/1960. Handcrafted in Northampton, England. Quilon leather, oxblood, original bouncing soles, iconic yellow waxed stitching."

All this, and $178.54 price tag (tax, shipping and handling not included). Are these for wearing or do you just put them on the mantle and look at them? Or maybe you wear them with your authentic, iconic, original, direct replica Traditional Skinhead™ clothing when you go to the pub and dance to Northern Soul?

Does breaking them in ruin their collectability?

Do they come with "hot-knifing" instructions?

Or maybe coloured laces that match your local football team (or EPL team of choice for yanks) that are so precious to you (presumably because you've spent all your money on the actual boots), that when one breaks you tie the two pieces together instead of buying a new pair to demonstrate your working class values?

Are these boots "Made in England" by actual English (white) people or will they let just any old brown flavored immigrant work there?

Do people in Northhampton vote Labor? I need to know these boots are 100% authentic working class English boots before I buy them to wear to the next do.

No. I don't have anything better to do right now.
