I’m having some difficulty coming to grips with the absurdity of this

You're covered for a while!

The first time I had tripe was in Italy on my first visit as a young boy. I had no idea what I was eating but liked it. Now I can rarely find anybody to make it for me.

I don't think I could stomach tripe.

Range day in the sturgis 2.0 today. Weather report was courtesy of Adrian Kronauer. Should have listened. My 6.5 Grendel needs a rebarrel; the budget tube I got is not the level of accuracy I'm looking for. Sucks to have to pay a lot more but it be what it be.

Anywho.

Here's a fun gif. Do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior Aries?

Rams are such hooligans.

Ok, I keep hearing about the trunk shows, but how do I find info on them? thanks

I think @ae_ashley might have meant the brown Neumok. The Strandmok doesn't currently have a leather sole.

That isn't a brown neumok, but an Acorn Hilfire one. This is why we need pictures.

I think we need pictures! Also, what about welt stitching?

I'll post some kind of resource for you tomorrow. Welt stitching will be tonal and default.

The brown Strandmok was the one I had in mind, although it doesn't have a leather sole, you still get that sliver of color and it came to mind. I'll post a resource for everyone tomorrow.

I post here and on several other social media platforms. You can also contact stores or pm me with any questions or ideas you have. For this trunk show, I posted all the details on page 1570. Let me know if you need anything expanded on!

When you think about it, pretty amazing how many AE split-toe iterations have come, and gone, over the years. Perhaps more than any other style? Just guessing on that. This one, the Seneca, also now defunct but new to me, I think I rather like, and of course the always rich, Bradley in suede.

will we be able to do split sizing, i.e. right and left pair different sizes?

The split toe is one style that has to come and go. If you get 10 guys who like that style, you will have 10 different opinions on what looks best. All hand stitched? Machine stitched? Split with an apron? How long should the apron be? I like the Walton but others like the Delray. Yet others want a full Algonquin. For what seems to be a simple style there are a lot of combinations that a small subset of buyers are looking for.

Oh I see. I'll choose the lightest color sole option and then darken it if needed. At the very least, I've become confident in how to lighten and darken my sole edges.

El rayo burritos y guacamole in St. Charles does a good menudo on the weekends. Drink too much on Saturday and stop in Sunday morning. Or just stick with the hole in the wall joints. Just stay off of 3rd Street.

Much appreciated @Shoenut

If you look at the tags at the top of the page, you'll see info on where to find the details. Post #233554 on page 1570. I'd repost, but, it's a lot of info!
