I'm not a fashion guru. I'd argue there isn't any good Australian brand.

Maybe R.M.Williams boots if your wallet is tolerant to something way overpriced.

But they seem to be targeting the exec crowd who want dress-boots-with-aussie-country-cred while this exact marketing ploy is causing the loss of that credibility.

Again with the brand abuse. But the brand wants to exude quality, even if it is way over priced for what you get, so that's something.
