DO WE WARRANT BORROJAPS PATENT LEATHER SHOES? Every pair of mens Patent Borrojaps’ Patent leather shoes or oxfords are Warranted not to break through before the first sole is worn through. You don’t take no risk in buying these patents because Burt & Packard say “Give him a new pair and don’nt ask any questions”. We’ve only had to replace four pairs in three years and we are selling more of them every season. Most men are getting tired of having their patents break throug after a little wear and have their dealer show them the “NOTHING DOING” sign.
