Resole Shoes
Skechers Ruffneck Steel toe Wellington style boots. I bought them about 10 years ago, 2015, for about $40 on clearance. The glue holding on to the sole was beginning to delaminate. There were spots where the outsole with the tread pattern was separating from the midsole. I knew that I...- Fifty150

Experimenting on foods.
Nothing new around here. More tacos. There's always leftover food to throw on a tortilla. And that's sort of what happens at my house. Leftovers become tacos or fried rice.- Fifty150

Show us your SHOES !!!
Another pair from the 2011 Catalog. These have just been discontinued. They had a good run. Admittedly, it's not "the best" shoe in the world. But for whatever reason, they feel very good on my feet. Maybe my foot works well with their 65 Last. Maybe it's the full leather lining. It could...- Fifty150

Allen Edmonds (really... are they good shoes?)
This model is now discontinued. They aren't making it anymore. The Dalton. One of the better ones. Now gone. Maybe if enough people ask, they will bring it back. Or make something similar.- Fifty150

Stacy Adams shoes
I wear them. I just can't seem to wear them out. I expected them to fall apart by now. I wore it all day. It did everything that I needed it to do. It's not a hiker. It's not a work boot. It has lower quality, thin kidskin leather. It's built on a synthetic lasting board...- Fifty150

I'm wearing them right now. On the JG last, my toes have plenty of wiggle room. They don't feel snug on my feet.- Fifty150

Experimenting on foods.
In California, we eat tacos. There's even a custom of eating them on Tuesday. A marketing gimmick. Just like all of the fake holidays to sell greeting cards. I had tomatoes and tri tip. Sort of like the Chinese dish of tomato beef. Only on a tortilla, with cheese. No. Nothing...- Fifty150

Jim Green custom shop
The USA has AGOA. I think that they are pretty similar. I liked the Numzaan with the Veg ReTan leather. I wanted a higher boot. They have an 8" boot called the AR8. List price of $209. On sale for $149. $255 on the custom boot builder. $295 with the options that I wanted. $60...- Fifty150

Jim Green custom shop
I just went online to spec out a pair of custom boots. I'm not doing it. Those boots, with the shipping from South Africa, will cost more than a pair of Red Wing Iron Rangers, or Frank's Patriot. No custom Jim Green for me. I like Jim Green. But their sale prices will be good enough for the...- Fifty150

Jim Green Boots
I have Jim Green boots in 3 of their lasts. From left to right, you can compare their equivalent of D width, 2E width, and 3E width. According to Jim Green, the boot on the left, Numzaan, uses an almond shaped toe design to give it a dressier appearance. The boot in the middle is a Steel Toe...- Fifty150

Jim Green Boots
The JG last is supposed to be a 3E, or triple wide size. Here it is on my Razorback. Not Sub Saharan African Bush. Just a USA DIRT LOT. Some will complain about clown shoes. The USA dot com net address has a sale section. The USA Amazon site has sales on Black Friday and Amazon...- Fifty150

Jim Green Boots
After owning the Numzaan, I got to like the Jim Green "veg retan" leather. There's an African Ranger using that leather. The only problem for me, is that it's the synthetic midsole version. I like the leather midsole. Although I have the Razorback with the synthetic midsole, and haven't had...- Fifty150

There's nothing special about the shank. Regular production boots get a steel shank. With custom orders you can request a plastic composite shank. The leather insole models do not get the insert, because you are already standing on veg tan leather. The veg tan insole lasting board...- Fifty150

What's cooking?
I'm still suffering NFL withdrawal. For no reason whatsoever, I made tortillas. Or flatbread. Whatever it is, it is flour and water. Cooked over a hot cast iron griddle. Handmade is never perfectly round. I also made some chicken. Then my brother in law dropped off some "flap meat". Also...- Fifty150
