    I'll send you a PM so we don't derail this great thread :)

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Glad to hear you turned out ok. My personal choice is to take advantage of modern technical advancement and use gear purpose built for riding.

    Smart move. They are pure fashion.

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    I like the toe cap. Kind of wish I had caps on mine.

    Great pics. Thanks! Are those the same laces as mine?

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    In case anyone was wondering why I wore them from June until October and then seemed to stop, I had shoulder surgery on Oct 14. Yesterday was the first day I was able to tie my own shoes again! I was happy to tie on my Whites again. I gave them a heavy coat of Obenauf's LP when they were...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    This is very true. My brim on my porkpie has an asymetrical swoop to it that Art swears was not intentional. But when I first snapped the brim it just fell into place.

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    Not a problem :) I wore mine nearly every day from June-October, so they are getting broken in. I had been thinking of taking some recent pics for you guys. I will work on it over the weekend..

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    I have the water buffalo. It is a thinner leather, that is why it must be lined. However thickness is not directly correlated with strength in leather. Kangaroo is very thin yet very strong. For that reason it is used for the palms of motorcycle gloves. The buffalo does take on wrinkles and...

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    1. Sounds like they just need more breaking in. Go for a long walk. 2. I personally wouldn't want 2 boots of the same leather. Go for an oxblood. I am sure they have an oxblood in something other than buffalo.

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    I was worried about the white getting dirty so I went with red. I actually hoped it was apple red, but it is not. It is a sienna brown. Scan up in this thread and you will find pics of my boots and liners.

    White's Semi-dress Boots..

    Lefty, I think the only way for one to comment on the warmth of the liners would be to spend some time in a pair with and without liners. I don't know if there are many people here with multiple pairs. That being said I have never had any issues with the liners in mine. I wore mine all summer...

    I agree. Check out this interesting blog. In particular look at the pair of belts pictured - new vs. 5 years. http://horween.wordpress.com/2010/03/23/chromexcel%C2%AE-2/

    Vintage Eyeglasses

    I think the size looks great. I am sure it is just something you need to adjust to. Strangely I switch between browlines and super light, space age, german designed, next-to-nothing frames. I switch every 2 or 3 days depending on my mood. They couldn't be more different. Yet the change...

    Fedorafest III Stratoliner from Stetson

    Such a shame hatco. Whether this is actually true or not, this is how the "enthusiast" community will interpret a failure to produce this hat. But I don't think they really even care if we think that. Our opinion does not financially impact them. If it did, they'd get this thing made. In...

    Pomade

    What movie? Oh Brother Where Art Thou? I hope that isn't the case. In the movie the product is Dapper Dan and it is in an orange tin. I don't see how he is riding off them at all.

    At best they didn't pay their webhosting bill, as the website is definitely down.

    Pomade

    Oh no! I hope not. I should have bought like 10 cans.

    Those are beautiful. I like the 2 piece vibram outsole.
