I got two of these from warehouse. Returned the first one since it was too big. Not much saving compared to this deal but still cheaper and I couldn't tell any flaws or imperfections. Perfect 👍
haven't ordered anything from there.
How can I open from Warehouse ?Once you select the size look below the price on the Amazon page and there will be a small link that says "other sellers on Amazon", or "save with used - like new" or similar.
The conditions (like new, acceptable, etc) are meaningless as is the description of the issue. On an item like this with so many used offers it will probably be something like they recieved a pallet where the boxes got crushed, and only the packaging is damaged. If there's only one used offer on an item, it's probably a return so the issue could be anything.
Has quality improved or worsend in the last 3-5 years? I used to buy nothing but Hush Puppies for my office job and found that they on average used to last me 6-9 month before they started to deteriorate and found myself buying another new pair.
That would depend on level care and use on a per person basis.
I have had a pair for 9 months and done no conditioning on them they are absolutely fine
I recently bought this very pair in the ad.
Quality of materials is pretty good. Quality of construction is average/poor.
It's just a glued sole. Shame this pair doesn't have a Goodyear welt or any other stitch.
This or the rmw's?
They need a mortgage
My 2c is these types of 'chelsea' boot are a false economy. I put all of hush puppies, julius marlow, windsor smith etc in this category.
They generally cost $100-150 but only last 12-24 months. You could still wear them but they visually look tattered, the sole has worn away etc.
I purchased a pair of RMWs on sale for $450 in 2018. I have used and abused them, no re-soleing, conditioner, i've wiped them twice in their lifetime.
At the end of 2024, if i binned them today that's $75 a year. They will last many more years however, and look much better than these alternatives (personal opinion).
These are all good points.
I like Hush Puppies because I can rotate a pair once, maybe twice a week. And have different colours depending on my outfit, so they take a very long time to wear out and gives me a bit of variety in footwear.
In saying that I did recently splurge a bit on Blundstones as there was a nice colourway that took my fancy. A colour that RMW's didn't have otherwise would have got them. A colour most would find gross according to my partner lol with a yellow sole
Baby Kack yellow soles FTW ;-)
Bought a pair of Hush Puppies last year, and they lasted about 12 months. However, that was with me wearing them pretty much every single day for work, which is generally going to wear out pretty much any non-premium shoe. If I had spread that wear across two or three other pairs, they likely would've lasted significantly longer.
To add to this, Hush Puppies have the only boots and shoes I've ever worn that needed no wearing in period whatsoever. Maximum comfort and pliability from day 1.
I agree with you.
Somehow I got lucky with a $50 clearance home brand pair I bought from the iconic.
Somehow 3 years later only issue is a chunk of sole fell off.
Though I replaced them with mongrel Chelsea boots and they seem a good compromise. ~$160 or so and full grain leather made in Australia. Not Goodyear welt or same as RMs but a lot better than these hush puppies etc.
Honda civic vs M3?
The inner sole on these squeaks when you walk. Not sure if it stops after some wear. Everyone can hear you walking by in a quiet office. Otherwise very comfortable.
Yep I have this problem too. I found bamboo socks alleviate it
These run a bit large had to return them last time.
Get a pair of baxter. Last much longer and will cost less/year
These are terrible. The heel is particleboard which swells and disintegrates if it even gets near a hint of water.
just get some RM's
Lasts 6+ years
Can be repaired.Basically for the price of 1 of these per year (how long they tend to last) you'll get to wear RM's
One is super comfy, soft leather, and the other is rigid hard leather. Just get this; there is no need to look after it. Replace it with new when it is on sale. You can always have different colours and styles for the budget.
I tried a Chelsea when I was younger. Very accommodating and supportive.
Missus bought me a pair last month, they look and feel fantastic. Need to season and condition them though (refer to reviews), but well worth the price.
Tried to change to size 9.5 —> Got one in Mahogany colour, "sold by Amazon Commercial Services Pty Ltd" for $63.00.
Bargain!Nice - it didn’t work for me though 😅
I like these shoes, got them in some earlier sale and tried some sizes and return the ones which I didn’t think would suit me. I chose mahogany but it’s got tan and black available which is cool
I have a pair of these in the arsenal. Super comfy but scuff very very easily.
There are a few 'used' ones depending on the size from Amazon Warehouse which are cheaper.
