    Christmas Music

    Okay. Let's have it. Post your Christmas Music. Good, Bad, and Ugly. Even if you think that Jennifer Lopez and Mariah Carey are the same person. They are really two different people. Even if all of my ex-girlfriends look like clones.

    Resole Shoes

    I went to a local cobbler to get a quote on resoling my Stacy Adams Madison boots. Heels were worn down. The soles are worn down. Now was a good time to fix them, before they got worse and needed more work. The quote was for "$$$". The shoe repair guy said that he would grind off and...

    Shoe Prep

    According to this guy on YouTube, there are things that you should do before you wear your shoes. Do you guys do that with new shoes? With "new to you" used shoes? What do you guys do? I'm in the same boat. I can only buy shoes on sale. And I still want an online coupon and free...

    The Experience

    It's nostalgic. Old theaters with less than comfortable seating and sticky floors. Old worn carpets, darkened by decades of spilled beverages and food. The kind of place where a younger version of me, would go in with the first bargain matinee show, and spend the whole day eating junk food...

    Has Anyone Sent Shoes Back To The Manufacturer?

    I have these shoes that I don't really wear. Because of my lifestyle, they're not a good fit. I ride motorcycles, and sadly, these are not motorcycle boots. I think of them as my "mini van boots". They have been worn less than a dozen times, in about as many years. The last time that I rode...

    1960's Leather Jacket

    This was probably around 1969, when Feinstein was first elected to The San Francisco Board of Supervisors. A lot of things to notice in the photo. What I'm looking at is that three people are wearing leather jackets. And it looks like those jackets are almost, if not, identical. What do you...

    John Ownbey Jackets

    Has anyone seen these in real life? No local retail store has this brand in stock. So I can't actually pick it up, feel it, try it on. Any thoughts or opinions?

    Vintage Food

    What is "vintage"? Can food be vintage? How old does it have to be? If a product has been around for 50 years, or 100 years, considered vintage? I'm old. Old enough that young people point their fingers at me and laugh. I've been eating tri-tip since I was a kid. Probably because my Dad...

    Wilsons Leather

    Let's suppose that I was dumpster diving. I found a box with a shipping label. Wilsons Leather is now a Costco brand?

    Goatskin For Motorcycle Jacket

    I didn't want to be the guy who resurrects an old thread. Some people in online forums frown upon that. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/is-goatskin-inappropriate-for-a-motorcycle-jacket.63461/ I have several goatskin jackets. A-2, G-1, and others. I've worn them while riding a...

    What Do You Wear In Really Cold Weather?

    How cold is it where you are? What works for you? It doesn't have to be expensive in price. I just want to get an idea of what works.

    The Ride

    From city to city, the online map says 561 miles. Door to door, it's a little more. 2 saddlebags. 1 for each of us. Only toiletries, clean socks, and clean underwear. We'll be wearing our entire wardrobe during the ride, and those will be the same clothes we're wearing for the entire trip...

    Now Vintage

    The House

    Built in 1945 The house halfway down the block is on the market, and the listing information shows it was built in 1944. Makes sense. They started building at one end. As you can imagine, everything is old, and needs service. The last few weeks, the guy uphill from me was having problems...

    Covid Vaccine

    The finer things in life? I can't imagine anything finer than an elixir of life. A fighting chance to continue living. My little corner of the world has done a pretty good job with putting shots in arms. The latest is that we are now in the phase where bus drivers, restaurant workers...
