    Red Wing Gentleman's Traveler

    Should post some pics of the cigars.......I swear my black cherry looks the same as the zappos photo for the cigars. They're more of a standard brown than the cherry, the cherry has a burgundy quality to it, but the cigars are straight brown. The pictures on Zappos/Amazon are pretty similar, I...

    What pants are those? It's hard to find well-fitting cargos, and those look great.

    Red Wing Boots - Your Opinion

    As far as sizing goes I wear an 8 in Purcells, a 7 in DBs, and a 7 in Red Wings. I have a narrow heel though, and have heard that some people have a problem with how narrow the GTs are in the heel, so it really depends on what shape your feet are, not your normal size as far as I can tell.

    Clarks Desert Boots

    What is a good DB color for shorts/chinos? I've got a sand pair that goes fairly well with shorts. They're a bit harder to pull off with khaki chinos though, as they're almost the same color, I tend to switch to the taupe for khaki colored chinos. The sand pairs well with khaki/navy/any color...

    Red Wing Gentleman's Traveler

    Does anyone really like the standard laces? I had a pair of red boot laces lying around and threw those in mine one day to break up all the earth tones I was wearing, and liked how smoothly they laced/unlaced that I went out to Nordstrom and got a black pair like them. Those waxed laces are just...

    Clarks Desert Boots

    I've got both taupe and sand, and I tend to wear the taupe more. Personally I like sand more than oakwood, and taupe more than beeswax, but that's just preference. Taupe and beeswax seriously go with just about anything, just be warned that beeswax has a harder break in period than the suede ones.

    Red Wing Gentleman's Traveler

    Well yeah, I've just noticed a few regrets about not conditioning them earlier in this thread. I know they're gonna fade and scuff and whatnot like raw denim in a sense, but I'm just wondering when the best time to apply the stuff is, and how often.

    Red Wing Gentleman's Traveler

    Just got my tobacco GTs and as I was lacing them I noticed they scuff REALLY easily. The shoestring did a number on part of the tongue. I don't really plan on wearing them for a few days (other than the 5 mins I had them on earlier seeing how they fit and whatnot) but I have some Obenauf's on...

    Clarks Desert Boots

    I got some shoe trees from Clarks to put in my Sand DBs, and have decided against using them for the boots. The boots are a size 7 and the trees are Clarks for a 7-8. When I put them in you could immediately see around the sides of the front where it was warping the shape of the boot, pushing it...

    "Single stripe" ties

    This month's GQ had a $50 article and had a CK tie like that in it, I like it.

    BEST SLIM FIT khakis?

    I'm really enjoying the Gap denim washed ones, Valet gave them their approval. If you're looking for dressy ones their tailored slims are nice, but I stick with the wrinkle-resistant ones, personally.

    Iron Ranger versus Gentleman Traveller

    Update: I have both the Iron Ranger in Amber and the Gentleman Traveler in Cigar ordered, I will most likely keep the GT and return the Iron Ranger(thank god for Amazon Prime).

    Iron Ranger versus Gentleman Traveller

    I've got a good sized shoe collection, it's just lacking when it comes to boots. The tread was one of my concerns with the Iron Rangers, and it's not that I don't like the cherry color, but I like the amber of the Rangers better. I ordered the Rangers from Amazon already, should I get the GTs as...

    Iron Ranger versus Gentleman Traveller

    I'm looking into getting one or the other. I realized the only "boots" I owned were a few pair of Clarks DBs and some slip-resistant ones I got for unloading the truck at work, nothing I can wear in all weather and still like the way they look. I'm looking into Red Wing Iron Rangers or...

    Clarks Desert Boots

    I've had a pair of taupe DBs for about 6 months, and just recently got some sand ones. The taupe ones I didn't really care how scuffed or dirty they got, but the sand ones I feel a bit different about. I got one huge black mark on one of them when I wasn't paying attention and rested one shoe...
