sounds kinda republican, my man! it's really no different than any other progressive tax and it doesn't seem to keep wealthy people from buying fancy ****. my 2 cents.

first, before you wear them, i would suggest some sort of water and stain repellent. a brand you can get for that is Cadillac. it's good for all seasons and colors. Get a nubuck/suede brush and eraser. when they become dirty, brush off most crap with the brush. then, spray on a product like Suede Renew (from the same brand). Spray it on from like a foot away, then let it sit for several minutes to seep in. then use the brush again to remove more crap and potentially a cloth (but the cloth will probably absorb color from the suede so be careful which you choose). finally, use your suede eraser to clean up and relift the nap. you can do it a couple times to get all the **** out.

yeah. im kind of halfway between republican and democrat. republican when it comes to money and free markets and democrat when it comes to civil liberties, transparency of government, etc

^ Aeglus was joking, you're serious, wtf is your outlook, tax and spend to hell because that's what the left platform says? Seriously SQ's absurdly vague "fiscal responsibility cultural leftism" thing is pretty par for the course I would have thought.

EDIT: Actually ******* this is recent purchases not cesspool. What a godawful forum that is.

Fiscal conservatism is dead. I don't even know who you'd need to elect to get that at this point.

You and PinkPantser both. IIRC fits a bit slouchier than one might expect from Hickey.

From the measurements the seller gave it shouldn't be too slouchy (17 shoulder and 20 ptp) considering there's also a removable quilted vest underneath the toggle coat.... I'm more concerned that the long length (37in) might be a bit much for my height (5ft8).

Saint James watch cap from Archival Clothing. Exciting, I know, but it should do better than the deadstock USN caps that I've been wearing.
