Allan Posted November 4, 2020 Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 So I bought a pair of seconds new Frye John Addison Lace up boots and the defect they have is the welt stitching on one small part of the outsole is right on the edge of the outsole. Is this ok, or is the welt stitching going to wear out? https://www.styleforum.net/threads/frye-welt-stitching.673881/#lg=thread-673881&slide=0 https://www.styleforum.net/threads/frye-welt-stitching.673881/#lg=thread-673881&slide=3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petercoulson Posted November 4, 2020 Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 They are what would be classed as seconds and looking at how close to the edge of the sole that is they shouldn't really have been sold, if you look at the makers website the stitching is safely a good distance away from the edge of the welt. I think you will have issues with them although if the glue is good they won't come apart to look at them isn't nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
