    Mark of an inferior shoe? (Toe spring or no?)

     Cool. This sounds similar to the camber sometimes built into structural members in buildings and is visible in some unloaded flat beds. The original shape counters the deflection expected under load.

    Clarks Desert Boots

     I just bought a pair and when I saw how much rain they'd absorb I applied Clapham's Beeswax Leather Dressing. The color darkened to very close to the beeswax Original's finish, which I like a lot better. If you put anything on them other than spray silicone, they'll darken.

    Clarks Desert Boots

    Maybe so, I dunno. I saw both in beeswax a few minutes apart last night, and the only difference I saw was the sole. The workmanship and upper seem comparable and these are cheaper by a third. I have never been a fan of crepe for urban wear...it seems to wear unevenly so that you can end up...

    Clarks Desert Boots

     Just bought those, but they aren't the "originals" line. It's a cheaper line made in Viet Nam and doesn't have the crepe sole but some other synthetic. I like the look better as it's not brightly contracting. Saw the same shoe last night in a mall for 97.99. From Sears they are only...

    shirts and general fit question for V shaped body

    I have the same drop and find several 'slim fit' shirts work fine for me. I guess it depends on how tight you want it to be. I'm happy with minimal bunching at the waist band. There is a thread on slim fits btw.

    concealed carry

     The swastika is an ancient 'spiritual' symbol from central asia that dates back to the Neolithic with associations to the sun that was more recently appropriated by murderous nutjobs... Amazing coincidence. :wow:

    Mr. Foxx made my (late August) day with that Hank Jones performance. Thanks for reminding me that, beyond the daily din, I still love music.

    Non-pleated custom made shirts... does it "cheapen" the look

    If they are only worn with a jacket over them, I would trade the look for the mobility, and I am built very much like you are.

    Sanyo Coats

    I just learned about this brand yesterday, and saw a couple up close in two stores: a wool gabardine balmaccan with a curious half-raglan shoulder detail at Tom's Place for 450 before haggling, and a number of coats at Lorne's for 400 or less. They seem very well made to me. Any opinions on the...

    MTM in Toronto area recommendation ?

     I was in there just yesterday speaking to them about a custom suit and got the impression that this is how it would work: "The tailor would give you what he thinks is right." (I went in to take in an OTR jacket, and I now looking for someone to undo most of it as he went too far and the...

    What MANLY stuff did you do today?

    I drove for miles with a passenger on the back of an ATV on rough trails and across bogs and numerous streams. On the way I had to clear about six trees that had fallen across the trail since the last time I did that. They ranged in diameter from 6 to 10 inches and all I had to cut them was my...

     They've got lots in my size but I'm leary of buying something like shoes when I can't try them on. Fit is soooo particular and important.
