BOHEMIAN IT'S WHAT YOU SEE
"Judge nothing by its appearance, but by the evidence. There is no better rule"
Bohemian is what you see, and not everything that glitters on social networks is gold. I would like to dedicate today's blog post to this topic. It comes from a conversation I had with a customer a few weeks ago, in which she complained about a bad past experience. She told me that she had decided to buy my shoes "to try them out". Because she was "tired", she told me, of "profiles on social networks that are very pretty, yes... But that hide shoes of very discreet quality"... And she added, "Which you realise when what you have bought with so much enthusiasm arrives at home, and you find a shoe that two months later is a mess... A shoe that is not what it seemed and that hasn't exactly cost you cheap" . So I decided to write these lines.
SOCIAL NETWORKS ARE WONDERFUL... BUT THERE IS ROOM FOR EVERYTHING.
At Bohemian we know that social networks are wonderful, but at the same time they can also be great impostors, the paradise of farce and posturing. And we know that there are plenty of honest people on them... But also some professionals of deceit and manipulation. And we also know that followers, likes and comments can be bought... And that a bad shoe or any article of poor quality can be camouflaged without any problem behind a cute profile. All you need is a moderately experienced photographer, and wait for the unwary or the unwary to bite...
That is why we at Bohemian we have opted for a policy of total transparency with you. And that is why we are among the brands that inform you openly and with absolute rigour about who, how, where and with what raw materials your shoes are made. None of them sell low cost shoes. On the contrary, they are serious and consolidated brands that sell spectacular shoes. That's why at Bohemian we will never tell you that we manufacture in "top quality leather", which is a catch-all term. Is there a scholar among my readers who can define this term? I know there isn't... Suffice it to point out that "Factory made", "Made in China" and "Low cost " are full of very nice products made in "Top quality leather". We are something else.
BOHEMIAN IT'S WHAT YOU SEE. WE ADVOCATE RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION AND ETHICAL FASHION
At Bohemian we stand for responsible consumption and ethical fashion. And that is why we are truly committed to providing you with all the information you are entitled to as a customer. And we do so in our profile on social networks and on our website... Visibly and in writing, so that this commitment is clearly visible. We have no need to hide anything, because we know that what we offer is among the best you can find in footwear today. And we say it proudly, loud and clear, because we work very hard to make it so. A Bohemian Nobody has been given anything for free, something we are proud of because it adds value to the brand and to our efforts.
We do it so you know exactly what you are buying. We do it so that you appreciate its value. And we do it so that you never find a synthetic lining and a plastic sole in a shoe that was sold to you as the eighth wonder of craftsmanship in a limited collection.
At Bohemian we have a very careful profile in networks, as it could not be otherwise... Because we take care of everything. We don't know how to do things any other way. But our profile is no more cared for than the shoe you will find when you receive it at home. Because, after you, our shoe is the true protagonist of this brand.
Bohemian is what you see, no more, no less. Our footwear will not surprise you, or at least it will surprise you in a positive way. And beauty can be faked... Quality and brand values, never.
