    Best way to remove ear wax?

    A few drops of this in your ears every couple of days will keep them clear. Maybe stick them under the shower for a flush now and then. Trust me.

    Called the shoe bank about Brooks Bros. Nothing in 65 last size 10E. Swing and a miss.

     I tried them both on in store recently and was the same size, but I do overpronate which can cause sizing issues so YMMV.

    Is it safe to assume that the Labor Day sale Aug 21st to Sep 1st will include discounts on some current production 2nds, or should I settle for the unimpressive closeout 2nds in my size? Not that the Fifth St boot is really all that bad for $150. I'll just feel like a bit of a dandy.

    Thank you for the informative responses. I'm surprised that didn't turn up on Google, but my terms must have been suboptimal.

    What is a "7 Iron Leather sole?" Google seems to indicate that it is a sole "weight." Does that translate to thickness? Or is it just marketing nonsense like "brush off leather?"

    Quite clear. Thanks for the photo. Now I want a pair of those even more!

    I know it was a few pages ago, but those MTO Eagle County boots are fantastic. I'd pay full retail for a pair if they came back in walnut/bourbon/brown with a dainite sole. Speaking of, does AE use genuine Dainite soles or is it just a similar-looking rubber sole?

    That was my supposition, Kahuna75,but I had hoped someone had a formula or the like. The ball of my foot rests slightly behind where it should in the 10.5, I'm just concerned about the instep being too low with the 3/4 length Superfeet I wear. In a blucher it would matter less, but the shoe in...

    If I were to go down from 10.5EE to 10EEE would I lose or gain width/girth? I can't try the 10EEE on without driving three hours to a store that carries the size, but I really think I would fit the 10 better lengthwise. Width is already pretty close.

    That looks really sloppy to me. I'd send them back. Here's hoping someone more competent was working when they crafted the merlot McAllisters I have on the way.

    I wonder whether they just copy/pasted the descriptions of the 7-97 last version but forgot to change the text on one of the descriptions. Either way I imagine they'll have some upset customers who order MacNeil 5s in their 7-97 last size only to find that they don't fit.

    Yes. I'm on my phone or I would go check to see who posted it, but the date given was April 11.

    How does the 222 last fit compared to the 97? I have to go 10.5 2E in the 97 to make room for my toes. Should I go to 3E in the 222?

    That's just fantastic. Was the outsole included in the base cost or was there an upcharge?

    I ended up with only one pair from that sale too, and it's still in the mail because I had to go up a half width on the walnut grain MacNeils I decided I liked. For some reason there was a glut of that shoe in most of the sizes I checked. They must have been unpopular, which strikes me as odd...

    Here you go: http://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/lacingmethods.htm Take your pick. Straight bar lacing is my favorite. Now two questions of my own: Do we know when the April sale referenced over the last couple of pages will start? I'm considering driving to an AE outlet before then to be sized...

    My understanding is that only closeout styles are included in the 2/$250 deal, but I'm relatively new to all this. Gave up on the site, but the SA is being incredibly helpful even though I've got incomplete information. Awesome service even though it's obvious they're slammed.

    It was working perfectly until about five minutes ago. Then it stopped for me too.
