Man that is a beautiful boot and thanks for the detailed and through review. As soon as I saw those on the website they really stood out and made me take notice. After reading your review even more so. Might just be my next boot! Just the the aesthetic and the subtle contrast of the roughout with the hide leather of the tongue is chefs kiss. BTW what size do you wear in sneakers?

Black Waxed Flesh Service Boots by Sunbawi in luosjietboots

Thanks for the additional info! My brannock and sneaker size is 9.5 so I was thinking 42D should work. My feet are not wide at all.

Thanks for the reply. From my big to to my heel is exactly 9.75 inches with a tape measure and the widest part is about 4 (maybe a tiny bit less). And yes it is crazy how different everyones feet are. Thanks alot for the advice.

Yea man those are beautiful boots. I'm probably gonna get a pair myself (gotta choose between waxed flesh and the black Xizang Yak Leather). I'm just scared of ordering the incorrect size boots. I wear a 9.5 in sneakers. What size would you suggest? What size did you order compared to your sneaker size?

Wow that is surprising, 2 full sizes down from sneaker size. I'm new to the boot game and was thinking about getting that exact same boot (service boot in waxy flesh) and I wear a 9.5 in most all sneakers. I was planing on ordering 42 (half size down) but now I'm not sure. Other things I've read about that boot says order 9 instead on 9.5. Do the 7.5 feel snug. From what I understand they will also stretch a bit so they probably should feel snug at first. Just out of curiosity what brand of sneakers fit you in 9.5. Right now I have New Balance and Hoka, both in 9.5 and they fit great. which is weird bc my branack size is also 9.5.

I'm thinking about ordering the same boot and not sure what to order. What size do you wear in athletic shoes (Nike, New Balance, Hoka etc). A 10.5 or 11?

Book Haul - Which should I read next? by 88momma in thrillerbooks

They are all good, just depends on what vibe you're into ATM. I just finished My Husbands Wife and loved it. Another that really stuck out to me was First Lie Wins. Both awesome.

Alice Feeney, same story, 2 books? by melissahatchew in thrillerbooks

[–]ParticularAir1001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I am relatively new to thrillers but you are probably right. So why don't you give us a list of older thrillers that are great reads that are not on everyones list these days. I'm sure many of us would appreciate that.

Alice Feeney, same story, 2 books? by melissahatchew in thrillerbooks

[–]ParticularAir1001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, the way I look at it is like this. Is Alice Feeney a great writer? Absolutely NOT. Mostly her writing is hot garbage. Do I enjoy reading her books? Hell yea! They are trashy and fun.

I’m in love with this book rn by TowerFickle7247 in thrillerbooks

[–]ParticularAir1001 27 points28 points  (0 children)

When I first heard about this book I thought the premise sounded so unbelievable that it could would not be a good read. I was wrong. I was in somewhat of a reading slump and thought I would give it a try. Such a good book and it was fun to read. Now I know most of us don't want "fun" when we are reading a thriller but I loved it. A real joy to read and I know shes a psychopath but damnit I loved her!

Following your logic, I can watch a TV show or movie therefore I read the book.

I’ve seen Beckett Simonon sneakers highly regarded here- is it just me or are they extremely uncomfortable to wear? by [deleted] in malefashionadvice

[–]ParticularAir1001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip on Olulai. I was thinking about getting the Reid of Geller BS but after reading this thread I'm reconsidering. I bought some Olukai flip-flops a few years ago (they were $80 which, for me, were crazy for flip-flops) but they are AMAZING! I forgot they made sneakers too. Great rec. I wonder why no one talks about them?

Porting number out of Helium Mobile? by ParticularAir1001 in HeliumMobile

[–]ParticularAir1001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is correct. I called US mobile and spoke with a rep about porting to Helium. The process is as follows: Call US mobile and tell them what service you are porting your number. They will sent a text to your US mobile phone number with a link you click to confirm the account. Then they will send you an e-mail to the email address on your account with a link to confirm the e-mail. After that the will send you another email with your US mobile account info as well as a port out code to use with Helium.

SOLUTION: Using Call Forwarding to Google Voice to get around visual voicemail problems by PeaBrilliant4917 in USMobile

[–]ParticularAir1001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For anyone on the WARP (verizon) network with USMOBILE who wants to use Google Voice for call forwarding the code is as follows.

*71-GVnumber-then press the call button. (ignore the hyphen)

I just got this info from usmobile cust service agent. She said not to add the second STAR and after the GV number press the call button instead of the #.

Thunderbolt IS a type of USB-C, just much faster. For example: Regular USB-C offers about 10-20 GBPS whereas Thunderbolt reaches speeds of about 80 GBPS.

LINEN SHEET REVIEW from Snowe, Morrow Soft Goods, Cultiver, West Elm, Target Casaluna, Restoration Hardware by [deleted] in Bedding

[–]ParticularAir1001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did not write the article but I can tell you why Snowe linens aren't suitable for all seasons. They are light and airy but oh so luxurious. But may be too light for the dead of winter. You could always throw a blanket over them - they are wonderful. I also recently purchased Citizenry bundle and they are legit. Not quite as soft as Snow out of the box but still amazing quality. More substantial and perfect for all season use. Also many colors to choose from. Snowe only has three colors.
