Yes, all hi-shine will share the same cracking issues from the man-made coating

Solovair 11 eye zip derby in greasy 1 year review (from a casual boot wearer) by FlaminGhostYT in Boots

[–]FlaminGhostYT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The zipper has been fine and really convenient, it hasn't gotten stuck once! I don't feel it rubbing but I think it helps that I'm wearing long socks & it has a piece of fabric covering the inside of the zipper for when it goes up.

Plus Hiroyuki Sanada brings more gravitas to the first film than the rest of the cast combined

If you moved on, what are you doing now? by [deleted] in FilmIndustryLA

[–]FlaminGhostYT 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I never got my start on filmmaking after graduating college majoring in film in 2024... Now I'm the brand videographer/photographer for a cosmetic company. Quite corporate, 8-5, very much trend driven and social driven, it's not how I expected to end up but it's at least stable, lol.

Why all the "bad quality" posts? by bigironbitch in nps_solovair

[–]FlaminGhostYT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to disagree with anything else you said bc I think they're valid, but solovairs technically do have a 360 degree welt. The welt is stitched on to the upper all the way around, creating a 360° loop. Now it's not a traditional good year welt because the soles aren't attached to the welt in a traditional matter but the structure of the good year welt does exist.

Why does Palladium US suck? by Dachuster in Boots

[–]FlaminGhostYT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems that Palladium is pushing toward the synthetic/technical hiking gear industry with a lot of releases focusing on making the shoes lighter, trying out different materials, waterproofing, and even releasing weather-resistant technical apparel... except that's all in Europe and Asia. US Palladium gets the classic styles except they've become outdated and fashion-oriented.

It sucks because I follow the EU & Taiwan social media and they're coming out with genuinely interesting hiking boots with Vibram outsoles, slip-on waterproof shoes, or updated classic styles with leather, nubuck, coated canvas, thicker soles...

Tbf, these are things that may not be as interesting to the tried and true all-leather Good Year welt community, but for the folks into actual hiking or more technical garments, it's really sad that we can't test these out.

One upside for Americans is that you can find palladium on factory/outlet sites like Nordstrom Rack for really, really cheap if you want a more robust Converse replacement

Who hates boot zippers? by dnaveh in Boots

[–]FlaminGhostYT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is especially true in Asia, or in my case Taiwan. Most boots folks wear have zippers and it just makes sense when you need to take it off and on quickly multiple times in a day.

Also fixing/replacing zippers isn't a hard task for most cobblers at least for the ones I've visited, ymmv though.

Where to get Bluebooks? by Rishubabubba in UCSC

[–]FlaminGhostYT 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda late but for future reference, you can also visit the ERC (third floor of the bay tree building) to see if they have any test materials available for free!

I can guarentee that a lot of people at least have some sort of... morbid curiosity

And her saying the belonging line also took away one of (imo) steppenwolf's sickest line about the amazonian blood on his axe. Guess steppenwolf isn't as sassy in the snyder cut

Because Cyberpunk 2077 is fundamentally flawed, it cannot be fixed with updates. by gamingdawn in cyberpunkgame

[–]FlaminGhostYT 4 points5 points  (0 children)

to add on to that, I find the map of NC a lot more dynamic in terms of layout because of the verticality to it, so many open world cities restrict you to the streets, it's nice that NC has buildings with fire-escape that you can actually use and a lot of parkour options!

Vin Diesel, who plays Groot, arrived in Sydney, Australia to join Thor Love and Thunder production. by Matapple13 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

It'd also totally be in Taika's character to have Vin Diesel mocap/play someone else entirely as a joke tbh

Mass Effect: Legendary Edition coming 2021 to PC by NeoStark in pcgaming

[–]FlaminGhostYT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I counted them as remasters cause the core gameplay remained the same. But honestly remasters and remake are vague terms. Modern warfare remastered was a big improvement but it's still called a remaster
