At least we have graduated to something a little nicer than plastic - except maybe the rug...

I am on a roll with my boot purchases in the last few months. 3 pairs incoming from Black Friday sale (black Hamilton, cognac Hamilton, and tan Stirling). I've been eyeballing Long Branch for a while, but don't want to buy stuff made in DR. Then I found this vintage pair made in US. Looks to be lightly worn. Hope to get them in time for Christmas.

Im not sure those can be genuine LB’s without red laces.:cool:

Nice find.

Very nice set up but I only see six men on the line of scrimmage. That’s a penalty.

A pair of pigskin Leeds by the couch would have been a nice touch.

I think the grain leather on those looks great - it’s a bit stiffer than the tumbled or CXL Long Branches, but I think it’s very sharp.

For anyone size 10.5 and wanting some sharkskin here are some auctions to watch out for. The seller listed them as ‘Allen Edmunds,’ so they might not see much traction.

I grew up with plastic covers on the furniture. Alden is that equivalent. Just awful. Every run.

I am pretty happy with the color 8 I have from them. But that is the great thing about choices. It would be terrible if there were only one shoe company.

I can't wait to receive them. I've been phasing out shoes for boots since I am now working from home. More practical to wear boots in the Canadian winter which can last from November until May.

I love lazy Sunday mornings. Dangerous though, as I frequently find myself shopping online.

I don't wear these as often anymore as they need a resole and AE no longer has the wedge sole in white in my size. Once we get through the holidays I think I'll send them to an independent and go with a non-AE wedge sole. Eagle Counties.
