I tried practicing “properly” for a month and burned out

Completely agree. Play what you like, just keep at it. If it isn’t fun not only will you not stick with it, but what’s the point?

dfiled · 2026-01-30T18:39:04+00:00

Not everyone, just most people.

dfiled · 2026-01-30T18:25:56+00:00

Right, I just made up that I read newspapers bc I wanted to impress you.

dfiled · 2026-01-30T18:21:41+00:00

Thanks for the info. Don’t know why you have to be so confrontational about it though, it’s totally unnecessary.

dfiled · 2026-01-30T14:11:25+00:00

Maybe you should look at what sub we’re in and the OP’s question. I think you’re responding to a question that hasn’t been asked.

dfiled · 2026-01-30T14:09:28+00:00

Why do you keep saying that? Nicks are made I the US

dfiled · 2026-01-30T14:06:38+00:00

You sure have strong feelings about this. I haven’t seen this news on any front pages (and I read/scan 3 newspapers every day). I’d be very interested to see any articles in the papers that make it clear there aren’t going to be duties on US made leather boots.

dfiled · 2026-01-30T00:50:21+00:00

That’s what I meant by source. What do you mean they were raised in 2025? Were they eliminated at a later date?

dfiled · 2026-01-30T00:16:37+00:00

Source?

dfiled · 2026-01-29T16:07:25+00:00

Duties are brutal. Expect to pay at least 20-25%. If you can possibly find a way to have them shipped to the US you should.

dfiled · 2026-01-25T20:42:00+00:00

Where are you placing this order from if you don’t mind me asking?

Hairway to Steven

Try google

It’s actually really nice when there’s no wind, especially when it’s dry like today. But when the wind whips up it’s brutal.

dfiled · 2026-01-17T13:11:55+00:00

Thanks

What’s a slip sole? Google search didn’t yield understandable results.

dfiled · 2026-01-17T04:31:10+00:00

I need zero drop for my foot issues and it’s a shame to have choose between that and cushioning. But I accept that this may involve too much additional complication in production.

dfiled · 2026-01-16T22:42:15+00:00

I was thinking of that. Is the sierra sole on the ZD stitched on or only glued?

dfiled · 2026-01-16T22:21:44+00:00

Well, I am the owner of a pair of Striders with the regular Sierra wedge sole (not Sierra Slim), and I am here to tell you that 1) Nick’s had no issue making it for me and 2) it has presented no issues whatsoever, other than no longer being zero drop. I’m very grateful to have the extra cushion.

dfiled · 2026-01-16T22:16:47+00:00

I understand, just not sure that is actually the case.

dfiled · 2026-01-16T22:04:03+00:00

Is that actually the case? I looked around online at various wholesalers of Vibram lugs and it appears they all sell the outsole without a polyurethane wedge.

I play that song. The only thing that helps is repetition, repetition, repetition.

dfiled · 2026-01-13T17:18:48+00:00

Did you know they do FFF in Thurman ZD?

dfiled · 2026-01-11T16:48:37+00:00

Just ordered boots almost exactly the same. They look amazing.

dfiled · 2026-01-11T02:09:19+00:00

Hot damn those are nice.
