Offical TRICKERS shoes and boots thread

[Crafty Cumbrian]

As you'll probably know, Pediwear recommends going up a half size for the 5402R last. But I have one pair of Monkey boots on this last and found no difference between this and the 4497s, mainly because with the Monkey boot you can adjust the lacing all the way up on either side.

Phew, nearly had credit card failure as was tempted to order both sizes..

How come everybody is up so late? You'd think that with such heavy shoe bills to service we would be working at least two jobs each.

I might have a picture of my Monkey boots in my spreadsheet database. I'll have a look...

I’ve to drive to a sh&t hole tomorrow so probably pre Drive anxiety...?

 

[Olderfellow]

Ah yes...

Christ! They're so expensive I couldn't possibly actually wear them. They would have to reside in one of my temperature-controlled rooms, along with my unworn Tricker's veldtshoen shoes and boots and signed photo of Arthur Askey.

You could buy them and leave them in your will, for me....
As for Arthur Askey, I searched his name and found he was born in Dingle, Liverpool. Or, as my family call it, ‘the Dingle’. That’s where my Dad and his family are from.

Did that today. Three hours to office and three hours back. Do it once a week.

Not me, I didn’t buy any! Rather, I’m contemplating selling a pair! lol

You had to Google him!?

You mean the small coastal town situated on the fringe of the Lake District National Park, in the southerly part of Copeland.

You're right. never heard of it.
