What do you think of the Paraboots?

Nice, thanks. Anyone heard of Michael Toschi? I really like these. Do you have URLs for the ones you ordered? I can't find the chukkas. Edit: nevermind, I found them both. http://www.sierratradingpost.com/xq....uct.htm http://www.sierratradingpost.com/xq....uct.htm

Anyone heard of Michael Toschi?

Yes, I've tried some on before. Their principal selling point is some sort of high-tech comfort system that they use. I don't know how much of that is real and how much is hype, but the shoes are very comfortable. I've coveted these for a while, but, alas, STP never seems to have them:

Norcal, for those of us with impaired reading comprehension, what exactly do you do with the riddle to get the free shipping? Just put the answer in comments?

 

[norcaltransplant]

yeah, stick the riddle into the comments. I better stop looking at that website or I might be tempted to pick up the Paraboot Chukkas.... or Bill's Khakis for <$48

What do you think of the Paraboots?

I havent received them yet. I actually ordered two pairs to cover the sizing. I mean, for $63 + $5 return shipping fee, the Paraboots are cheaper than a pair of Kenneth Cole... on sale, no less.

$94 for Italian RL Chelsea Boots... perfect bad weather shoes. I figure they'll last at least two winters, and look a lot better than the Tims I don from time to time.

Thanks, norcal. I've been watching those Paraboots for months, but they don't have my size anymore. I'm probably going to get some trousers.

norcal,

Is this 20% off in addition to the 20% off currently being offered on the site(20% + 20%)?
Or is it the same 20% off plus the riddle for the free shipping ?
Thank you,

 

[norcaltransplant]

20% off PLUS an additional 20% off for a total of 36% off, and tack on the riddle in the comments box for free shipping.

VERY NICE ...
Isaia suit here I come ......

 

[AlanC]

Just placed my order for three pairs of cotton trousers (no suitable Bill's in my size, alas): two from Jeff Rose and one by Scott Barber. Total: $91 (+ shipping). I assume the shipping charge will be removed when the order is processed.* Thanks, norcal. Â

*Edit: Received an email saying I got the riddle right and the shipping charge had been removed.

Isaia suit here I come ......

That was my first thought.  Then I remembered I am a 40R.  Oh the pain . . .

Thanks for the tip. I just placed an order for an Isaia suit at $480. I'm hoping it fits like a glove. The price is pretty much unbeatable.
