Lets face it: a lot of the best outdoor footwear is made in Europe: Scarpa, LaSportiva, Kayland, the list goes on. What’s more all those awesome European companies tend to build their shoes on that super narrow euro last, leaving us boxy footed Americans having to either size up or endure. I asked our fearless leader the other day “when are we going to see an American company produce top-tier outdoor footwear?” Our fearless Leader responded by shrieking “Oboz! Oboz! Oboz!”. Then his head turned a full 360 degrees on his shoulders (like the Exorcist) and blood started spurting out of his eyes and then he walked away.
Later that day I received an Oboz shipment that contained the following:
Oboz Men's SAWTOOTH MID
Oboz Women's SAWTOOTH MID
Oboz Men's FIREBRAND 2
Oboz Women's FIREBRAND 2
Please recognize that Oboz are more American than:
-Apple pie
-NASCAR
-Football
-American Idol
-Obesity
-The American flag
-The constitution
-Reality television
-Hello Kitty (sorry Japan, but it’s really kind of ours now)
-Having the television and public school system raise you kids for you
-Driving your F-350 down the driveway to get the mail
-Working 44.5 hours a week but only being productive for 20 of them
-Having your emotional wellbeing largely contingent on the success or failure of your local sports teams
-Wearing Crocs to Wall-Mart
-Having your sprinkler system on until November
-Taking down your Christmas lights in March
-Bill O’Reilly, Glen Beck and the whole Fox News team all snuggled up in a giant American flag
Wave that flag,
Sam Benedict
