Inane Demonstration

GG13 — Thu, 14 Dec 2017 13:25:21 GMT

Demonstrating pouring watter, coffee, and juice on the TSV (Lamo boot) is absolutely

ridiculous! When is the last time anyone got grape juiice all over their boots?

Don’t know about “watter” (sic) but coffee and juice are definitely high priority on my spill repertoire.

If you have grandchildren, pets, arthritis in your hands, ride subways, cross city streets, just to name a few, you DO want your boots to survive these assaults and much worse.

How would you prefer their advantages to be promoted, @GG13?

I’ve dropped food and beverages on my shoes. The reason they are using coffee and grape juice is to show you that beverages which might normally stain don’t stain the boot. If they don’t stain with those beverages, they probably will stay clean looking longer, resisting other stains which might be encountered when wearing the boots.

Most of the demos are inane. How about the Philosophy ones w/the bowl of water?

Another one is putting fingers in jars of skin cream products. Up and down w/ the fingers.

The repetitive closeups fooling with suds, shaking of fabric, etc. bother me too, not sure why. I change the channel.

I'm always splashing stuff on my feet when I'm loading the dishwasher.

Coffee and grape juice/wine are 2 of the most difficult stains to remove. I believe that is why those liquids were chosen for the demo.

The one I hate is squeezing food.

If they showed that cow yuck wouldn't stain them I'd buy them. (Can't wear anything nice on a farm) So grape juice demos are fine.

@Group 5 minus 1-- you took the words right out of my mouth! I was going to say that the most inane demo ever is smushing the lather thru the bath pouf, over and over. Any soap, even dish soap, will make lather like that. And I can never watch a Josie Maran demo - dipping fingers in and out of a cream is a total turn-off for me. Icky. Two brands I would never buy because of their ridiculous demos are philosophy and Josie Maran!

Showing that water and grape juice don't stain boots would definitely get my attention.
