Nice! That's my hometown. Great color on the LHS.

Thanks! I like the town a lot. I grew up in Charlottesville, VA, and it culturally feels a lot like home to me with the town wrapped around the university. Certainly good and bad things that come with that, but I can't argue with the availability of good restaurants, shows, and art...

I'm from the UP, keep meaning to visit Ann Arbor, maybe for a footbal game when my son gets a little bigger.

Awesome -- I'm headed to my first football game this Saturday against Army. Maybe I'll wear Aldens? Seems to be asking for some beer spilled on them, though! :cheers:

Picked these up from the Unionmade Goods fire sale at a great price. Alden Michigan boot in Utica, double sole.

I wanted them to have a little more *pop*, so I sent them off to my cobbler to have brass eyes installed, as well as switching the tongue to black/dark grey.

Nice changes. They may have sold better had they looked that way originally.
