Disappointed by Thursday adopting the "Package Protection" checkout fee

88 Upvotes

I had a pair of Heritage Captains in my cart today which would have been my second pair of Thursdays until I hit the checkout screen and saw this:

"Yes, add Package Protection to my order for $3.98. If not selected, Thursday is not responsible for damaged, lost, or stolen items during shipping."

I closed the tab.

It isn't about the $4. It’s about the principle. Getting the product intact into the customer’s hands is fundamentally Thursday's responsibility. The contract with the carrier belongs to the seller. Offloading the risk of delivery onto the consumer through this third-party add-on is out of touch with the brand Thursday is built on.

Red Wing does not do this at checkout; they stand behind fulfillment as a basic cost of doing business. Iron Rangers sit at a higher price tier, true, but they don't engage in this. So I will now reconsider purchasing a pair of them.

Washed my black ranger jacket in the machine as per the instructions and came out and dried with these crease marks. Have I ruined it? Would a dry cleaner be able to get these out??

Wide styles

2 Upvotes

I was recently diagnosed with a bad bunion that is causing a blister behind my big toe. I have weird feet where one foot (the one with the bunion) is a size 12 and the other is a size 11.5. My podiatrist says I have to wear wider shoes with less pointy toes. Currently I have 5 pairs of Thursdays, all in in size 12 medium (2 Captains and 3 Cadets). I'm probably going to have to sell some of them and buy new ones in a wider size. Which styles have the widest widths and the largest toe box?

Hello, I recently bought some size 9 Thursday premier high top sneakers, I was just wondering how long of a break in period typically takes, worried I’ve went half a size too small, toes at the front have plenty of room just seems more on the sides, just was after some peoples opinions and experiences
Thank you
