Seeing the 15 year review of those famous White’s is easily my post of the year. https://www.reddit.com/r/goodyearwelt/comments/1ghd1rz/whites_boots_semi_dress_15_year_review/ With Discord, Patina Project, boot-tubers, Stitchdown etc I think what still keeps GYW relevant are the encyclopedic guides and then the long-term reviews.
