I like my job, I'm 5 years from retiring, I really *REALLY* have to stress my desire to not do things that would actually cause me to become arrested.

The desire is understandable, but the reality says “No.” This is why there is photoshop. Make it happen even if it didn’t.

Hypothetically speaking, if you were hypothetically invited to a hypothetical tour of the hypothetial West hypothetical Wing of the alleged White House....

Broadstreet (walnut/bone), Strand (walnut), Bourbon Dalton, or Olive Strandmok?

The answer is Olive Strandmok. And RUMINT is the oval thingamajig has been under renovation and possibly done. so you know.

The horse is definitely NOT going. Even I know my limits. :hide:
I was going to say get your Woodrow Wilson on and wear the Broadstreet.

How many people have had these shoes especially 65 last rub your ankle bone?

I bought two shoes, both hit my left ankle bone, the second shoe I ordered recently didn't rub as much but still, I decided to keep them because if I put some thin gel heel pads, the problem is solved, that's all fine and dandy, but it shouldn't be like that.

I haven't broken them in yet.

Why do these shoes always have problems like this or is my anatomy. People say is leather needs to be broken, if that's the case then why is always my left ankle bone and not the right one? Not sure if is an anatomy issue or the shoes.

I think is anatomy as I owned cheap calvin klein dress shoes and the same happened but in both ankle bones.

How annoying you spend hundreds, get excited only for the shoes to cause pain? and you have to resort to ghetto modifications just to be comfortable, shouldn't be like that

I have the problem with Leeds. The pattern is a little too “deep” for my foot. I just wear thicker socks to keep the rubbing from chafing.

And of course, you could always get bespoke shoes made just for your foot. Though we’re talking thousands here.

The MacNeil has a much shallower ankle cup, if I recall.
