    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I haven't posted on here in quite some time, but I just picked up a pair of these Frye Brando tobacco brown engineer boots so I figured I would show them off a little. My first pair of engineers were some black Work Americas, and they were great. These Frye's are also very nice and comfortable...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    I think that they are GREAT!!!!! I wore them all weekend, and really put them to the test when I was out in the garage working on my hot rod. I wanted a boot that was not heavy with a steel toe, but yet still had function for everyday wear and work. They fit perfectly, and start to fit even...

    Engineer Boots, Harness Boots...

    Wow thats really funny. I saw these the other day on ebay, then after buying them I just stumbled across this post with the same ones- crazy! For a starting bid of $39.99, I was suprisingly the only bidder. I don't think thats a bad deal at all, especially compaired to the $250 ones I was...

    Intro/ AAF WWII Goggles

    Hello, I finally decided to join on here after lurking around for a while and really liked what I saw! I stumbled upon here via google search for vintage engineer boots, and to my amazement, more great threads about WWII clothes, and the vintage lifestyle. I build dentures for a living, and I'm...
