Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread
IR are WORK boots. They are made as they always have been - to be worn hard and used for their intended purpose. They are not copies of work boots they are the real deal. I doubt Redwing expects many of the customers to own more than one pair at at time and most will wear them every day and...- Doublegun

Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread
I've been wearing my IR's for over a year and they have become a part of me. There is no need to do anything to soften them - wear them a couple of days and they'll be like sneakers. The ONLY thing I put on my is Redwing Boot Oil. Regardless of how beat up they may look before they look...- Doublegun

Mountain khakis - anyone tried these?
I have three pair. One is the Utility pant - not really for banging around town wear and two of the original Mountain pant. I'd call them a medium rise - lower than Bills but not so low you have to "hitch" them all the time. I find them very comfortable and they wear like iron. The canvas is...- Doublegun

Stepping back in time in Indiana!
The history of the State of Indiana is relatively uneventful. No major battles involving Indians or during the Civil War, never a center of high finance or industrial power but there is quite a bit of history that is interesting and for the most part overlooked because ifs been benign. Yet...- Doublegun

Stepping back in time in Indiana!
I live just north of Detroit but I was born and raised in east-central Indiana (Winchester) and get to Indy for work every month and I always look forward to the trip. Part of it is the nostalgia of going "back home" but most of the pleasure is just enjoying what Indy and the surrounding areas...- Doublegun

Aero re-lining job. What do you think?
Sent my LHB back to Aero to have the common riding lining replaced with cotton drill, hoping to make the jacked a little more versatile in the late spring and early fall. Turn-around was great - about six weeks. However, I am more than a little disappointed with the result. The new lining...- Doublegun

"The Pacific" - can it possibly live up to expectations?
A fitting conclusion to a tremendous series. I have always had a great deal of respect for veterans of any war but I am in awe of those who fought in the PTO. As the one who started this thread several weeks ago and having watched and re-watched every episode for me personally, it did exceed...- Doublegun

"The Pacific" - can it possibly live up to expectations?
Had the house to myself Friday night so I watched Episodes 1-7, back to back. The stories flow much better when watched that way and the stories weave together nicely. It was much easier to relate to all of the characters because you have more time to get to know them. It's definitely...- Doublegun

2010 Retro White's Oxford
They are supposed to be the same as the Travelers, which I find fit my feet perfectly. I also have a pair of Red Wing IR's and it's very hard to compare the two - the Baker/Whites are just so much more comfortable. They fit my feet like they were custom made.- Doublegun

Anybody own a pair of these beauties, yet? http://www.bakershoe.com/search.cfm/product/2010-retro-whites-oxford/ I's thinking leather sole (single), traveler heal, cap toe in British Tan. Perfect for late spring through early fall, will go with jeans, khakis or a summer suit and if they are...- Doublegun

"Classic" summer suit
The weather in Michigan is finally warming and a quick check of my closet reminded me that I don't really have a summer weight suit (plenty of sport coats but no suit). I am therefore looking for some recommendations for a summer suit (other than seersucker) that will be versatile yet somewhat... -
"The Pacific" - can it possibly live up to expectations?
I thought it was AkAk's lighter. There is a scene toward the beginning where AkAk (I think) lights a cigarette for Sledge. If you watch the episode again you will see it. I am really looking forward to Eposide 8 and the landing at Iwa Jima.- Doublegun
