Gents—before I reach out to the SA: please have a look at my green shell Higgins Mills from TS 2020.2. Piping around the ankle doesn’t seem like it was stitched and is now getting crazy. Thoughts? Request a repair or handle locally? Thanks.

I understand your frustration. I just sent my green ones back to AE (my recommendation) for some repair on the toe cap.

That is one of those things that I would let my SA know but most likely handle locally.

Thanks, my shoe brother. This Surrey boot was one of my official barn boots. My #1 girl (daughter) expressed how much she liked them, so I scrubbed off the horse manure and added a little Fiebing's dye.

Happy Monday forum friends!

I've been traveling the last few weeks but have been following here as much as I could. Lots of fun stuff to see!

Today I'm wearing one I don't see often on here, Discovery Derbies. Doubt these will ever be classics but I am enjoying them.

I always enjoy the watch photos on here, some nice collections and really excellent pairings. Ball Night Train DLC. My most frequently worn watch by far, as my only tritium watch I wear it on the inside of my wrist every night. It also gets tapped for motorcycle and ATV riding, any shooting sports (ELD and clays), woodworking and pretty much any rough duty.

Ready? One of my best memories is with Gallagher. I saw him at the Newport Yacht Club back in 2007. It was a "non-smashing" show, meaning jokes only. I met him after for an autograph and expressed my sadness in not getting to see the "sledge-o-matic." He brought me to his rental car in the parking lot, and from the trunk, he pulled a fresh watermelon and the majestic mallot. There I stood and smashed a few with the man himself. This sounds made up--but it's all true.

Wearing Brogue Suede Strands while waiting for my second COVID-19 vaccination at UCLA Medical Center.

For fans of "A-E In The Wild" pictures, sitting on my favorite tuffet at UCLA Medical Center after getting my second shot.

Just before going into one of the dozens of little cubicles in the vaccination center, there is a COVID-19 germ (enlarged to show detail) so people will know what the germs look like and can avoid them if they see any.

UCLA Health has a very good system. When the vaccine became available they sent their patients an email saying we would be invited to come and get vaccinated, starting with the oldest first.

My invitation came, I RSVPed, and had my first shot of February 15th. Didn't feel anything either time. Closed my eyes and looked the other way.

Does the group think they would work with a traditional blue seersucker suit?

They absolutely would, though not as well as:

* white bucks
* dirty bucks
* walnut & bone spectators
* tan/snuff/polo suede derby’s
* bone Essex wingtips

Navy Shell Strands for today. I’ve been enjoying the watch photos so here’s one of mine that’s been getting a lot of wrist time these days. Hope y’all are having a great week!

Non AE today. Cause Florsheim.

Spring is here — for three days, at least!
It gave me an opportunity to wear this pair of Gustins with my light brown suede Pattons.
