Title: The Chinese CAN make good things...
Post by: Angry White Male on April 24, 2018, 03:44:45 AM
Not often, but they can.



Exhibit A, one pair of Red Wing steel-toed and shanked work boots.



I've worked these fucking things for well over five years.  They've been covered in concrete, and various other shit...  Oil, mud most of all.



Only thing I had to replace is the insole, but that's easy enough to do with those Dr. Scholl's 'cut to size' insoles.



They aren't cheap, but yes, the Chinks can make a good product.  Not often, but they can.

What isn't at least partially made in China.

They've improved a lot over the years though it's still either a hit or a miss, but the biggest problem IMO with Chinese sellers is they make a lot of knock off stuff which bugs the crap outta me, lol, I mean I want to look for the apple airpods to buy and it's buried beneath all these cheap replica crap, lol.
