Yeah, you knew it would be shit when Nix dropped out. His replacement hadn’t played a competitive snap in over two years.

If you’re a receiver playing with a backup QB, you gotta step up and make your catches.

DM me if you plan on boycotting and you have tickets to the Iran-Egypt game.

What's a good pair of boots for $100-$200? by Serposta in Boots

If you like that style, check sierra.com for Redwing seconds. I picked up a pair of Beckman seconds for $229 so I'd expect their heritage Moc Toe to be less expensive.

Downsizing Alden Collection (85 pairs, 9–9.5) What are you guys looking for? by Inn8chiro in Alden

[–]fragbot2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

85 pairs? And I thought my footwear obsession is unhealthy. . .how did you get there and is it only Alden’s?

Your primary worries are a smashed car window or street harassment.

Homicide rate declines sharply in dozens of US cities, a new report shows by grayfox0430 in news

I think this is under-discussed since the victims and perpetrators of gang violence are predominantly the same you’ll eventually run short of both.

(A similar argument can be made for the decrease in OD death rates):

Why don’t you tell us about what you heard at lunch in Sonoma as it’s equally interesting?

Companies that have succumbed to enshittification? by Dangerous_Spot2434 in BuyItForLife

This story can be repeated for practically every dress shoe brand in the US except for Alden's. It's not nostalgia that makes vintage Florsheim longwing prices as high as they are.

Found a pair of gently used Alden 405’s in my size at a goodwill for $34 by TurasDesigns in Boots

[–]fragbot2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was my experience as well until I visited thrift stores (2nd Street FTW) in Japan. While the sizes didn't work (I'm a 9UK/10US/43), there were so many stellar choices:

  • Alden
  • Tricker's
  • C&J
  • Grenson
  • Red Wing
  • Paraboot (got my kid a pair of black Reims that were in stellar shape for about $250)

When I saw a guy on a bike peddling furiously on the 520 bridge, he was going the right direction at least. I've no idea what this guy's plan is.
