They also said, other winners will be contacted via email :smile: . Has anyone gotten this email too? 

Nope, but I think I’m no winner.

Hahaha! But why do you think so? 

No mail, man. :joy:


There are no mails up to now. Give them some days after their big event… :sunglasses:

Hey anybody been contacted yet? I mean they have to ask what size right? :)

 

cheers

No, no contact up to now.

But the FAQ on the VeeamOn site says that Veeam will send an email to the winners.

It's the same as with the t- shirts - be patient.. 😂😂😂

 

Thanks, @JMeixner! :smile:

This takes time indeed. Appreciate your understanding and patience :blush:

I got the notification yesterday evening. Just answered with my contact information and shoe size to Veeam.

By the way… they told me that it will take 3 - 4 weeks until the shoes are produced and shipped. :scream:

I am very anxious…  :sunglasses:

Ah Poetry contest!!!!! Yes!!

 

Legacy soles can be thrown away
The don't protect you anyway
I had to baremetal it today
But just as disaster came in to play
and thought that it was going to get its way
Along came veeam shoes to protect this natural array
Green Veeamies on the dance floor sway and sway

Damn I am too good with my shoes making them last. :joy:

Maybe time to rough them up just for this. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Hi @Chris.Childerhose , I now the feeling, I’m taking care of my shoes, therefore not a pair available that is soo bad it could ever win :thinking: those nice ones of Veeam

Perhaps clean and good looking shoes are a bonus in the competition? This would mean that you're able to take care of the Veeam sneakers 😉

Never thought of it from that angle. Time to get the shoes out and take a pic. :smiley:

@Geoff Burke is definitely disqualified then, he’s lost his!

No shoes = no entry into the compo :wink:  

who said there are not shoes here 🙂, these are nature’s shoes 🙂 so you add Veeam shoes to nature and you get “Nature’s Best”!! what a marketing trick… or this could be a before and after photo thing.. i.e. baremetal.. then later protected by veeam 🙂 !!!! 

I’m thinking you take it up a notch and get your nature shoes tattooed with the Veeam logo :sunglasses:

This is hilarious, @Geoff Burke! :smile:

We still want to see your shoes! I can’t believe you are wearing these nature’s ones in January in Canada? :smile:

Ok will try to find some.. yeah I run barefoot in January sometimes too, relieves stress just like a good swim. 

 

you seem to fulfill some stereotypes people have of Canadians in their heads :rofl:
