    Red Wing Recommendations

    I like oil. Mink oil. Neatsfoot oil. Both work. I don't notice a difference.

    Red Wing Recommendations

    For me, no. It broke in fine. For me, Red Wing and 1000 Mile Boots fit my Brannock size. No half size up or down. I tried one pair of 1000 Mile Boots a half size down. While my toes were not hitting the end, the boot felt too snug. Which kind of fits in with the advice to go 1/2 size...

    Clarks Desert Boots Lately

    I can now see the grid pattern of the air cells inside of the heel. I wonder if that means I'm getting close to wearing them out.

    Allen Edmonds (really... are they good shoes?)

    I just placed the order. It was priced right. So I took a chance.

    MA-1 recommendations?

    I'm the average person. I'm not combing the interwebs for hours, trying to source the perfect vintage item. I'll buy whatever jacket is easily accessible. In my case, the jackets I own were from uniform issue. I didn't shop and buy it. I took whatever they handed me. And it looks like...

    Any opinions on "Excelled" as a knock around A2?

    I'm not a "collector" or an "aficionado" . I'm not buying a leather jacket to appreciate it's vintage. I buy jackets to wear. They have to be functional. Leather is windproof, and mostly rain resistant. A well oiled and conditioned leather jacket will bead off moisture. I also have a...

    Dr Martens

    Amazing how those have lasted for 40 years. Everything still looks good.

    I'm guessing that this style was not very popular.

    Experimenting on foods.

    Life in The Big City. An uncoordinated collective of people from different backgrounds, living side by side, without rhyme nor reason. In the old days, when we had segregation, you simply lived in whatever neighborhood you belonged in. Today, you live wherever you can afford. And for a lot...

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    My shoes are an older model which is now discontinued. Those were from when they actually had an extra piece of leather sewn on the vamp. What looks like a rivet is actually just decorative.

    I am jealous. Mine don't look as nice.

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    It's possible to repair the boot by replacing the panel of leather.

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    He recently collaborated with Thursday Boots. As some people are aware of, there are content creators who are not on the Thursday payroll who pointed out design flaws, poor build quality, defects, and other reasons why Thursday Boots are not very good. Thursday Boots has their own army of...

    Lunch, Anybody?

    The X calls it being caught between 2 cultures. She is wrong. This is California. We're blended into multiple cultures, no matter what your DNA says. We are fortunate. We have meat and vegetables. It's a matter of what to do with it. A YouTube Auntie makes it in a blender. I...

    Dr Martens

    Levi's 501 jeans may have been more popular.

    Dr Martens

    Dr. Martens is missing a beat. That little red tag that says "ROYAL MAIL" is marketing gold. If they sold boots with those little tags to declare that the shoe is the same as the issued uniform , people would buy them. There could be little tags to indicate whichever branch of military or...
