    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Ok fair enough. Well I've got similar feet with high arches and wide Width Chippewa boots in EE fit me good and were comfortable once broken in. Break in didnt take long. The leather is nice but not as thick as Wesco boots. Chippewa are good boots. I had mine for years. There are many old...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I've got the most of the same issues. Go to Wesco and have your boots made to measurements of your feet. It's a $100 USD up charge and worth every single penny. I've got arches and EEE wide size 10.5 feet. I also have big calves from years of road work and jumping rope from boxing. So Wesco...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    It's not a problem! I'm very happy to have been able to help! To make it even better, Wesco keeps your sizing form on file. So when you want another pair of boots you can just build them online then submit the order. No need to measure again. Oh its dangerous! Please do keep us posted. I...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I actually have a Harley or did when I got my boots my gear shifter was easy to use with the bump toe. It's not that much of an increase over the 9165 Last to matter. I did have forward controls and larger foot pegs too. Which helped. I think you would be fine with either last as far as...

    It runs on Winchester WB. S&B ammo runs great in it too. I've never had reliability issues with it. I just can't afford to feed it at much as I'd like. LOL Yes! I need a Dillion progressive press. One day I'll get one. They're really the best ones around for mass ammo productio. So many...

    The drums don't always work so well unless you maintain them and keep them greased. They work better for the machine guns than the semi auto guns. The 100 round drums were made for the 1921 Colt made Thompson guns. They have a lighter bolt and a much higher cyclic rate than the 1928 guns...

    Old gas stations

    That is one of the coolest things I have seen! Where is this located? I'd love to do this and live in it. Plenty of garage space for the tools and toys too. :-) Heaven on Earth!

    Good Eats-Show Us Your Vintage Diners

    I remember this place so well ! Is it still open for business? My mother worked in a diner when I was about 5 years old, and this might have well been the one. What a trip down memory lane. I was raised in South Boston, but was born in Providence and lived there when I was small, and returned...

    My new 2018 Freewheelers Mulholland from Speedway Sendai

    That is a beautiful jacket. The cut, the creases, the grain. Everything. Is that horse hide? Thanks for sharing!

    Vintage Eyeglasses

    I wear glasses some days. Mostly I wear contacts. While not vintage in age these are absolutely vintage in style. I've got the Fairmount frames with clip on sunglass lenses. I get compliments all the time. While not inexpensive they are extremely well made. They also have two other vintage...

    Schott Cow/Steer vs Horsehide.. can't decide.

    Same here.... we get some cold weather here. Maybe a few days here and there. It dips into the low 40's in the mornings and evenings. I could probably get by with a sweater or hoodie... but life is too short. I'm going to leave my windows open and sleep in my jacket to break it in and get more...

    Schott Cow/Steer vs Horsehide.. can't decide.

    Well that is certainly a serious difference. 613SH it shall be. Since they're essentially the same amount of money and both horsehide it's an easy choice. Thanks so much !!

    Schott Cow/Steer vs Horsehide.. can't decide.

    Wow thanks again. I've actually not handled a Schott jacket in many years. Around 25 years or so. When I lived in Boston and NYC my work dictated I wore suits so I owned a few nice over coats but never a Schott. Better late than never right ? I'll order mine soon true to size and see how it...
