Why we continue contracts with faulty providers is beyond me? Smells like an IG/Navy Crimes investigation waiting to hit the front page:

Had a "Bates blow out" right before I walked in to brief an admiral.

Totally concur. Terrible quality shoes. Just did a change of command in whites and no fewer than 6 senior officers standing in ranks had shoes fall apart. How embarrassing for the Navy's image in such a public setting!

The longer I'm in, the more expensive Bates shoes get and the more often I need to replace them. These are substandard products.

My white shoes were disintegrating during my Change of Command. I left a trail of white foam and trashed them as soon as it was over.

These shoes are too expensive to fall apart at the rate that they do. The white ones are the worst.

At least 2 pairs of white and 2 pairs of brown. I wish I could buy the "non-lite" version. The foam core is a horrible design.
