You get what you pay for.
Gaziano & Girling v's R M Williams chelsea:
G & G
- high quality leather uppers
- high quality oak bark tanned leather soles by Bakers
- elegant last
- good finishing all over and great attention to fine details
- double brick house build made to hold up well over time
RMW
- average quality leather grainy uppers
- chemical died soles of average leather that wears out quickly
- a typical Bruce Millar designed voluminous last (very aussie in nature) that fits few feet and the uppers look untidy on most feet, yet very comfortable.
- single brick house more prone to losing shape over time.
- average level of finishing with basic attention to details.
The G&G costs almost three time more, but for a long term boot you are getting much more. You are getting a much better looking boot, better leather quality, better workmanship and a much more shapely boot on the foot with better build quality. You get what you pay for.
