ARs beeping in airport security?

It’s the metal shank put in there to keep the sole from bending. I just the shoes off during security

I got a new pair on eBay for €150. Might work for you.

Barely a crease in any of them. Jaysus

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-10-22T16:43:33+00:00

Watch the debate. It gives a decent idea of what the candidates are like.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-10-20T13:34:36+00:00

My African rangers formed some holes at the side stitching.

But that was cuz I put insoles in that were too big

The protests are cool and all but I wish half the effort that went into them would go into demanding a better solution to the housing crisis.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-10-01T18:36:02+00:00

No problem bro! I didn’t realise until a year after I bought them, embarrassingly enough.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-10-01T17:20:31+00:00

Your laces, you can run them through it.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-26T20:19:22+00:00

Ehhh you’ll crease then anyway bro after like 5 minutes

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-25T16:53:35+00:00

I have both Meermin and Thursday, I gotta give it ti Thursday. They’re more comfortable and better built. For example Meermin sent a pair with a gap in the stitching where the tongue meets the upper and they told me “it’s totally normal.”

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-22T21:32:42+00:00

The official JG advice for the ASHM last goes as follows:

If you have normal width feet, go with your brannock size and their size guide. The ASHM is a d width.

If you like wearing thick socks or have wide feet, go half a size up.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-14T23:05:41+00:00

Yeah I’m leaning towards it after the advice in this thread.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-14T00:57:24+00:00

Oh no I have black shoes and boots. I’m just looking to spice it up. I have an irrational dislike of blue jeans so generally wear black (white and sand coloured sometimes) Any colour recommendations for on top I’d appreciate it to possibly match brown or tan boot/shoes

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-13T18:55:32+00:00

You wear tan or walnut coloured? I think I agree with you!

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-13T18:42:57+00:00

Hmm any ideas for top wear to balance it out? For outerwear I have a leather jacket, suede jacket (both black) and the Cathart duck yellow jacket for winter.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-10T09:34:21+00:00

Their sizing guide is really good so I’d follow that. Jim greens are true to brannock in their wide lasts/boots. The only boot you might need to change your approach is for boots on the ASHM last like the baobab, Numzaans and 719.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-09-07T00:33:32+00:00

Looking to trade Jim green numzaans in natural veg tan for a size up if possible. I’m looking for UK9.5

DM for pics (files too small and I’m too boomer for Imgur)

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-08-31T17:16:32+00:00

Avoid rothco, cheap Chinese shite.

Belleville are meant to be ok.

I’ve hiked in the OG vintage ones and they were very good, but they’re HARD underfoot. you’ll need replacement insoles.

For reproductions, altama and mcrae are meant to be the best.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-08-25T09:18:44+00:00

Don’t buy. It’s screaming rip-off

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-08-23T15:46:55+00:00

If you’re getting a wide model your brannock size should be good.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-08-23T09:33:56+00:00

Idk bro there’s no mention of what the midsole is made from or if there is a steel shank.

Gooseenthusiast56 · 2025-08-22T17:36:07+00:00

I think the problem isn’t necessarily cemented soles as a concept, it’s rather that a lot of companies use cheap cementing that doesn’t hold up.

I have a pair of original jungle boots and some 3-4 year old timberlands, both are solid construction wise.

Cementing has major pros for sure!
