Two-and-a-half years ago I put my hand through a table saw at work. My girlfriend convinced me to buy a pair of lace free Blundstone boots because I wouldn’t be able to tie up my boots for a while. Since we were downtown, (Toronto, Canada), we also stopped by city hall to obtain a marriage license. I wanted to marry this woman right away; she took care of me when I got hurt, and introducing me to Blundstone boots was part of that. (We were married 30 days later). Larissa and I just had our first child, and I’m still wearing the boots that started it all!
