Neither of these are my listing



i have several saved searches for grail models and seeing pristine football leather examples come up at attractive prices in other sizes sucks so one of you should buy them
Promontory Point is such a great model. It is perfect in football grain but would also be fantastic is other leathers.

I made the mask for myself, but showed a picture to a son who lives 2 miles away. The next day I had a request for me to make him a mask. An hour later, one for his wife. Later in the day the daughter in law asked if I would make a set for her parents who live nearby. As for a jock strap, hooking the ear straps around one's testicles may get a bit uncomfortable. Everyone stay safe out there and wash your hands.
Looks like you are donating all your footwear protection to a greater cause. Who ever said you don't need shoe bags for every shoe is looking stupid now.

My burgundy shell Daltons are VERY dark. I’ve put them in the sun for a few days and don’t notice a difference. How long do I need to do this before I see a difference?

Got out for filling my Thyroid medication. All of a sudden my insurance is allowing me to fill it for 90 days. Before I would need to use their pharmacy for 90 days.

A bit rainy so TS suede on commando is the way to go.
Did you order a B width on that Plymouth, and how did it work out for you?

At least 2 weeks, but more likely a full month. Be sure to rotate them so that all stores if the shoes fade evenly.
My green turned olive pair of HMs were a full month, and don't look as light in person.
I've got a pair of plain toe Alden boots that got about 3 weeks; turned them from DARK #8 to what #8 should be...more of a burgundy like AE burgundy was even a few years ago

Yes, I did go B width. If A width was available that may have been slightly better. I use the third hole on these. They are extremely good on my fat foot days. When it is not damp or raining they are slightly loose. This size is pretty good for how I use the shoe.

I have put them outside on the porch where they are getting unfiltered sunlight. The windows have that UV coating, so I don’t expect anything to happen from sitting near a window.

I will say being outside does dry out quicker than in a window sill (I have single pane still, and have done both).
Definitely going to get you to where you're going quicker.

Morning all.

Woke up this morning, thankfully the fever is gone entirely so i'm confident enough that it's just shingles-related and not the 'Vid, that I'm out of the guest room quarantine. Went in to get a shower, had an itch on my chest, and for a very short split second forgot what it was from, though I was promptly reminded as soon as i touched it that....i shouldn't touch it. :eek:

No AEs for a while though; as long as this is taking up resources from my immune system I'll be traveling the whopping several feet between my weight set, bedroom, bathroom, living room, kitchen, and basement ferret paradise. Wifey even goes for the mail, though I may man up and help with taking out recycling this evening. :hide:
