    Footwear to go with our jackets

    This ad inspired me to get on my kilties soap box even though no one asked. Yet another reason they are dumb is because the facings are not sized for them and end up with a ridiculous bulge like this around the calf. If you like the aesthetics, cool, but let's not pretend 99.999% of us need...

    Need some wisdom on leather boots

    shell is generally considered dressier as its smooth and glossy which people associate with dress shoes. other good options are horsebutt or calf. the makeup of the boot matters too, a chunky boot with a lug sole will look much more casual.

    Need some wisdom on leather boots

    Chromexcel is more a work/casual leather. But people on the internet are more likely to critique wearing it with dress pants than anyone is to give a shit in real life.

    Viberg - any other horrible experiences?

    There was no bait and switch scam, multiple people demonstrated for you that that's just how that leather typically creases and the same type of creasing is visible in their product photos and on virtually every used pair in that leather. Hopefully your next pair you find a leather that creases...

    Original buco or RMC Buco

    I don't think I agree with 2 sizes small, chest and shoulder look good. sleeves are borderline and body is short on you, I'd say. They were not patterned for tall, lanky guys.

    If I tell you I will do a service for you by the end of the year, and take your deposit, knowing full well my last 20 jobs took me 4 years and I'm still running behind with 3 years of work ahead of yours in the queue, am I being honest? And then when you ask about it once a year has passed, I...

    Or we could collectively raise the expectations for reasonably prompt communication, and reasonably accurate lead time estimates, instead of infinitely making excuses for people. It is a business. If it happens occasionally due to unforeseen issues or emergencies, that's one thing, when it...
