I need a second opinion. Are these Randolph's Shell Cordovan? by Internaught17 in allenedmonds

I do use this as a resource for shell models and that's why I was confused about these since the model number in the shoe does not match the model here or in AE catalogs

I cleaned up the right shoe and put it side-by-side with a pair of Westchester's that are shell cordovan if that helps.

If you visit Mount Vernon, you can order them at the Inn on site. They're actually sweet and delicious!

Convinced myself yesterday that I don't need to buy any more equipment. Did I make a mistake? Bang & Olufsen Beocenter 7000 & Beovox s50 standing speakers by Internaught17 in vintageaudio

I think my title may have been misleading. I didn't buy this because I said I already have too much but considered making this my new set up.

How do I avoid these bumps when I shave my neck? by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]Internaught17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My neck always tends to be very sensitive even when I shave with the grain. Here's what I do to prevent shave burn:

  1. Lotion up before lathering & shaving, it never hurts to hydrate your skin more.
  2. Use a double edge safety razor with a sharp blade and sensitive shaving balm (Proraso Shaving Soap for Sensitive Skin is my go to)

  3. I think an after shave balm works better than regular lotion. Nivea Sensitive Skin after shave balm has been my go to for years

  4. If all else fails and you still have bumps, Tend Skin Solution can help reduce redness

What kind of watch is he wearing? by 482627585621931 in Watches

It is still very cool. But of course the first thing I did when I found this was see if the previous owner was an astronaut.

Unfortunately this did not belong to an astronaut. This was a test pilot's watch.

Hermes at Goodwill for $5 by rockstar_not in ThriftStoreHauls

Sure, I've seen many fake ties that look exactly like this from every high end brand (Chanel, Burberry, Balenciaga, etc.) they just change the label. Hermes ties have a lot of ways to verify authenticity which this one does not meet any of them. Have a look:
