[Pascal1980]

How does a German of all nationalities not understand the difference between one country and many?

Hello armedferret,

what do you mean?

Best regards

Pascal

Mid-60s day fall day in the Chicago burbs means that I can try to pretend that it's actually fall and not some sort of "False Fall." Shell and selvedge to celebrate this very special interlude.

Still wearing AEs quite regularly, still in my short boot phase, still hoping it'll be real boot season soon...

Also, feels like TS purchases should be flooding these pages. Did I miss the posts? Were orders down this year?

Stirlings with translucent sole.

Grateful for another tolerable temperature day here in Chicagoland. Was going to do another pair of shell, but with the rain, I figured I'd break out the chili weatherproof Higgins Mill boots instead. Who knows what those 17 droplets of rain would have done to my precious shell! They might have been damaged forever!

I hope my pairs wind up looking like yours. Very excellent marbling.

Natural shell McAlister boot, medallion swallowed up at the toe.

Just shy of $1K and you can't give me a boot with a properly placed medallion? And to think I was stupid enough to order 2.

$499 for a second perhaps. Honestly sad because of quality issues like this. Im

You can find out what size uppers that they used. This is not a quality issue, it is a business decision to use multiple sizes of uppers to make shoes. They call it the uppers program.
