    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    Thanks for the soles experiences, folks. Looks like the 9011/9016 might be better suited to the Scottish winters then. At least it has a slightly gripped sole.

    Shoe advice needed for wheelchair user

    Thanks for the link, Kate. The side-zip ankle boots look as though they might do the job and Ecco have outlets all over the place. My wife definitely can't get into a store to try them on, but I recon if I have a chat with Ecco and talk about the different thicknesses of insoles they offer...

    Shoe advice needed for wheelchair user

    This might be something a little different for you to think about. I need some help sourcing a pair of shoes for my wife who is a long-term wheelchair user. She has several issues that prevent her wearing normal shoes and I don't know what resources are available in the UK to either get...

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    How are you finding the soles on the Iron Rangers? I see from the UK site that they say they are nitrile cork soles so I wondered about their durability and whether they can be resoled if needed?

    Quality shoe brands in the UK?

    Thanks for all the recommendations, folks. That is more than enough to be going on with for the time being. I am pleased to see there are still some top-end shoe makers over here and I am looking forward to chatting to them... things like which last will suit my foot shape, how they handle...

    Quality shoe brands in the UK?

    I am getting to the point where I may order three pairs of shoes direct from Allen Edmonds despite living in the UK and I was wondering... before I do, are there any premium UK brands of shoes that would compare well to AE in terms of quality and after-sales care (cork layer, recrafting when...

    Gloves

    I guess you could email CJ and ask what they had or could do to help you - they do make bespoke gloves after all.

    Gloves

    Chester Jefferies Gloves review I have just received my first two pairs of bespoke gloves from Chester Jefferies in the UK and thought I would post a short review with pictures. I went for their bespoke fitting service because my hands are broad with relatively short fingers (I remember...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Is the Oxblood really that light? The samples show a darker colour so it would be wonderful to see a daylight shot of your lovely hat if possible.

    Ebay vendor?

    That's the one, yes - I have just headed over to www.panamabob.com and navigated to Mens Hats - Cuenca Hats. You should then see a page with all the styles you can choose from and below that where you choose the size and grade of Cuenca you are looking for. Cuenca Fino Brisa is the one I own...

    Hat stands and stretchers in the Eurozone?

    As you have suggested, I have just emailed John and he is preparing a quote for combined shipping on a brush, two stands and a stretcher. Once you find that there are no local equivalents to something, you either source the best and put up with the shipping or do what John did and invent...

    Hat stands and stretchers in the Eurozone?

    I have been looking through the posts on the forum about hat stands and stretchers and I was wondering if there were any suppliers of hat accessories of similar quality to John Penman's but in the Eurozone? I know John's stuff is designed with our hats in mind but all I can find over here are...

    Another Aero "JanSolo" Long Half Belt order

    Hi Andy Yes it does look good - I saw your pics of the jacket when I was deliberating between a Hercules or the LHB. Amanda reckons a 40 will fit me having gone over my measurements as she says it is quite a roomy jacket (my chest was 40 1/2" relaxed with a light jumper on). By the way -...

    Another Aero "JanSolo" Long Half Belt order

    They love customers turning up. There is an invitation on the website, but there is a catch. Actually there are a couple... I don't have a car, so would have to use the buses. According to the timetable it is just under two hours each way plus my time in the workshop which wouldn't be less...

    Another Aero "JanSolo" Long Half Belt order

    I reckon JanSolo should be named the Patron Saint of FQHH Jackets for services rendered to the industry! I would like to say thanks to Jan for consistently and patiently explaining the options available to new Aero owners such as the olive gabardine, olive drab stitching and the rear hem...
