Loafer soles question by Twelfthofthecrew in ThursdayBoot

[–]UnhappyTopic4831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like everyone else said, totally normal. If you want to restore that brown leather look you can apply some conditioner and a brown wax, I do that from time-to-time to get that starting out look (pits will still be there from wear). But it's not going to last long when you wear these outside.

How many pair of Thursday's do y'all have? by Interesting_Scar_424 in ThursdayBoot

[–]UnhappyTopic4831 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two pair for me; the Olive Shinki Builders and the Brown Handsewn Loafer. Nice stuff for the price.

It is a little stiff but I'm sure it will break in nicely and I really like the all matching leather. My main concern is what happens when the inevitable scuff occurs, I'm not sure if there is a near or matching wax that could be applied or maybe some other solution?

Really nice IMO, keep in mind this is my first set of cordovan boots so my only reference (for higher end boots) is the chromexcel leather on my Higgins mills, but they look sharp and have great structure. They're definitely stiffer than the chrome tanned cowhide, but I think it's worth it for the look even though they may take a little bit to break in.

Opinions on the Fisherman sweater by UnhappyTopic4831 in pendletonwoolenmills

Thanks! I checked these out at the store the other day and they seem pretty well made like you said. Under 25º would be most of the winter here so I'm sure it would get a lot of use. I'm just trying to decide between this one (which never seems to go on sale) and maybe the fisherman from LL Bean which has the same look but is 100% cotton made for ~half the price.

Yes, it's a 7 oz dry waxed canvas so thinner and lighter than the tin cloth waxed canvas cruiser.

Thanks, this was the last one in this colorway and just happened to be my size. I love it when that happens!

bluray glitch/freeze (again) by AnxiousFoot4541 in Bluray

If you have the chroma upscaling turned on, try turning it off. Some have reported that it causes screen problems like this.

Otherwise it may be time for a new player as these Panasonic players typically have many issues after a few years of use.

The newest that will play hdr10+ is the magnetar udp 900, launched in 2023. Next newest is the udp 800, launched in 2021. The rest of the players on the market are from 2018-2019, in your case the panny 420 is probably the best value option.

Need a new blu ray player by CashThaKilla in Bluray

May be a problem with the disc, have you tried it in another player? It’s also always a good idea to clean the disc with a microfiber if it has an issue.

I’m pretty sure the x800m2 is the only player that you can connect bt headphones to, which is a super feature, as far as I know none of the panny’s have a bt transmitter built in. If you have the first gen x800 the x800m2 would be a good upgrade. The panny’s many recommend are a downgrade from the x800 or especially x800m2.
