Hi everyone,
I was at the Frankfurt Germany Airport on Monday and saw a soldier wearing middle to dark green dress pants. To me the pants looked to have a nice cut to them, neutral in form.
Is this along the lines of a vintage cut ? Have the cuts in Military clothing changed much over...
Hi erveryone,
I have been looking at some photos that a friend of mine took on Holiday in India. In the Photos there were some Army guys wearing what look to be some nice dress Khaki pants. I have done a search on Google for Indian Army surplus with no luck so far.
Does anyone hear have...
I like the Meindl Boots as well. My Wife and I have been wearing Meindl Boots for about 8 years now with very good results. Her Boots have been re-soled as well. Even though they are molded you can get new soles put on them at a good Cobbler shop.

The wax treatment reminds me of using Snow Seal on Hicking Boots years ago.
I am going to give this a try, one question though Jan, do you pre-soften the wax before applying it to the leather ? or apply it right our of the can ?
Thanks for the answers Guys. I have always tried to avoid rain with them, and bad weather in general. That does limit the times of year that I can wear them here in Germany, as the rainy season has started :mad:
Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding suede shoes. Are there certain season where it is not correct to wear them ? I have a pair of Alden suede Chukka Boots that I thought are more correct for Fall, my Wife thinks more for Spring and Summer.
What is correct, or does it not matter ?
Hello everyone,
I have been doing some searching for Vintage Boots and have not found anything from Allen Edmonds. Is it correct that they did not make Boots, or have I just had no luck with my search ?
In my case it was "Wobbly Stiches". If I look close I can find some ever so slight variations in the stichting. For me this is nothing to complain about.
Hi Fiver,
I did indeed buy one of the Aero Trainee made Jackets ( a Highway Man ) and am very happy with it. I have found no issues with the Jacket and I feel that the quality, as well as the value of the Jacket to be very good.
Well I have decided to go with the Akubra Campdraft from Hatsdirect. All of the good comments about the Akubra, along with the good price and value made me decide to go for it.
I will still be on the look out for a vintage Open Road, or Open Road clone, but I think that the Akubra will...
Hi everyone,
It was suggested in my other thread regarding a re-creasing of a current Stetson Open Road that I consider an Akubra Camp Draft. The Akubras are readily available so that is not a problem. In my search though I ran across the Miller Douglas which is also an Open Road style of...
Thanks again Guys for all of the good comments.
When it comes to size I am looking for a 7 1/8. Anyone out there got one they would like to part with ?
