I tend to like double sole, commando, or old vibram lug sole on all my dress shoes. If it is ugly, well that ain’t my problem. Feel free to rip out your eyeballs.

The only negative I can think of regarding double JR soles is that double soles can sometimes cause toe pinch where a single leather sole would not. I get this a little bit with my original Jefferson because of the combination of the soft upper and very thick and stiff sole.

Just for fun, I still haven't worn these, but I like looking at them.

To be honest, I didn't mind not get any stimulus in the last round or this one. I am happy to have my job.
Wife and I are both retired, thus on a "fixed" income, we got a partial stimulus check last time, another one would be welcome, not that we need it to live on, but welcomed none the less.

All good but does the walk fit the talk?

These Whitneys are among my cheapest pairs of AE and also among my favorites
