Probably depends on the specific shoe. It may be more of a fit issue than a sole problem for me, I have alden long wings and the polo darlton with double leather soles and I don't feel like either is as comfortable as my shoes with single leather or danite soles.

Unless both of those shoes are made with the same last, from the same manufacturer and made with the same materials minus the soles, your point is moot.

  • Flat front pants - Sorry, I was born with a dick and I need it to fit in my pants
  • The prejudice against black shoes - Can't we all just get along?
  • Suspenders - I don't hate them but I don't like them either

I'll add:

Lack of naked pictures in WAYWRN

Use of "cheers," "mate," etc. by U.S. citizens

Mispronunciation of the word forte

iDandy disputes that temporarily derail threads and force effusive, familiar apologies that make me feel like I'm hearing fingers grinding down a chalkboard

Hatred of necrobumping

I'm English and use words like 'cheers' and 'mate' frequently. I'm also a US citizen!

How do you know how people pronounce 'forte' on a message board?

Dunno about you, but I haven't seen a single bloke on WAYWRN who I'd like to see naked. There's a few who should have their clothes yanked off them and burned in a fire but I would still let them keep their kegs on as they've embarrassed themselves enough already.

Look - I didn't get to over 100 posts by having some person who asks for advice from strangers about how to do buttsex call me "brah" and tell me read. What's next, I have to decipher your ancient sanskrit profile picture or you're going to ask DT if getting your dark daisy licked is gay? (It's not)

Hmmm... sounds interesting. A bunch of bare torsos and lower abdomens illuminated in a circle, hiding fleshy treasures in the shadowy light, musk ridden with campfire smoke and saddle sweat. I think I know what you mean.

the common problem is that they are both somewhat inflexible so it's not "moot"

Just checked it out. Great website. However I do think that most of the pictorial posts from Bull do a better job.
