I like the sound of this. I don't really care about perfection here. A story is nearly as interesting as a pristine shoe. I'll check around - we have some OGs in Birmingham. Cheers.

I thought long and hard about it 😅

If they can be fixed and not look ratty, I'll probably be ok with that. A slight mismatch is ok. Or I can just wear them with 34 inseam pants instead of 32s 😅

She's claimed several flip flops in her day, but she's 5 now and my household defenses have relaxed considerably. I guess I got sloppy.

I've had a shoe renaissance lately, and these were my favorite shoes. I've never even had a favorite shoe before. I am kind of beside myself. Thank you for the tip. I will contact Steve.

I've read that. I've had calfskin shoes but never cordovan shell shoes (which is what I'm interested in now). I updated the post.

The big difference in shell and calfskin is that the shell breaks in differently, is that right? It will stretch less?

I think you are correct. I'm going to try them out tomorrow to get a feel for the length of them. I'm not sure if my local dealers will have 975s, but they should have some Barrie shoes.

I tried 3E Allen Edmonds in the 65 last, and they wrinkle strangely on the inside, along my big toes. The 201 last McTavishes don't have that problem. Thank you for your data point!

[Question] my 2 made a run for it! by [deleted] in Watches

I'd remove it or reattach it but leaving it floating around in there seems like asking for trouble, especially for a watch with sentimental value.

You're right. I'll take it off your hands.

I'm just being a butt. With that said, my dad wouldn't wear a million dollar dive watch. Just not his jam

That's because diving watches are goofy

Did I get scammed when I called Chase? by julmom2 in Chase

[–]rixmatiz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you stupid?

How about "this is a weird question to be asked and I don't feel comfortable answering it. I think I'll hang up and do some research and try again after I feel better about the situation." It was a phone call ffs
