Lousy glue job on Vision boots

Vision has done a very bad job of copying these Teeny wading boots. The soles are stitched on and within a season I wore through the stitches. To make it even worse, the soles were hardly glued at all, and as soon as the stitches gave in, the soles started coming off. Notice how clean the felt soles are. As I have written elsewhere, the soles must be drenched in glue in order to hold. These barely ever touched glue.

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
