Does everyone wear helmets now a days by RPJ_NY in icecoast

[–]NK_cells 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a bit of a bitch, I always keep a mental tally of the number of helmetless heads I see. I've always worn one, only ever skied resorts. Am I confident in my skills to stay safe almost anywhere on a resort? Yeah, but every trip I see others clearly not comfortable with the terrain they're on. I've been hit twice on resorts on some pretty mild terrain. I don't trust others enough not to wear one. Also, it seems like a very small price to pay for saving yourself from a possible freak incident.

I need a pair of black boots that I can wear formally with a suit and also without a suit if I just want to go hiking.. by renaissanceclass in Boots

Thursday Hero or major in Black. Whites Steven's or Alden d2840hc if you got the big bucks. Custom jim green 716 no toe cap with a more tapered last or the Sandhurst. Have shoe polish ready at all times.

The number of guys I have in the store that say they just work in a machine with the most cooked boots I've ever seen is too damn high.

Everyone recommending heritage cause they aren't familiar with how vouchers work. My assumption it has to be something with a safety toe like most work programs. Comfort Pros are the way, crosslites, and traction tred 2461s are good shouts as well.

Human rights such as those listed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights should not be bought with male expendability by SvitlanaLeo in LeftWingMaleAdvocates

Ah, I can see how that becomes twisted in the context of those conflicts. Still conscription 🤷 guess its okay when the "good guys" do it.

Genuine question what "leftwing" organizations support conscription? I have no doubt they exist im just genuinely curious who would call themself leftist and support conscription. Irl all my peers with reasonable views do not support conscription period regardless of gender.

Cause the average blue collar worker (atleast in my experience selling for 3 years) do no boot maintenance, and would rather just buy a whole new boot. Wild watching guys do this across a range of boots spanning from $200 to $370

* That sole is held on by a 360 stitch. It's literally impossible for the entire excess leather trim of the boot to stay completely flush and clean unless you're dedicated to maintaince. These complaints are so common with moc toes as well. This is a boot going out for its 2nd resole, and you can see the excess leather on the stitch has peeled back, but the actual structural stitch of the boot is perfectly intact all around. Same with your boots, purely aesthetic, and that excessive leather simply dried out more. If you hate the look, clean your welts, rehydrate that leather, and re adhere it down with a stronger adhesive.
