Thank-you for the recommendation... and yes, one is green. I showed them to a lady friend of mine who made the same suggestion. She shares my slight addiction to thrift stores and was as excited by the find as me. Turns out she also looked great in them and left with both :D.
I think...
Happy Sunday All...
Yesterday was an excellent day at the local Thriftstores... I found two lovely 100% cashmere sweaters that are in excellent condition and picked them up for almost nothing. They are soft and luxurious with no stains or smells, etc. Two items of concern however. One...
Hey Rambo, try this website...

They seem to have a good description of the various styles... looks like 500 and 510 are 'Originals' and 550 and 558 are similar to originals but with a leather lining.
Just slightly off topic but when did they leave...
Great Blog! You mention Vibergs and feature a few pairs in you blog. Is this the same Viberg that is in Victoria, BC? I ask because I walked over to their store/shop yesterday and found lots of great boots but not all of the ones on your blog. Do they do custom work as well as make different...
Hi Everyone, Just thought I would post a few pics of my 'new' Whites boots. I bought them used for about $50 and they looked a bit rough but I figured that I could rescue really good boots. The first pic shows how I got them... pretty dirty, a bit scuffed but pretty good all around. Second...
Thanks Cane Rod, it really is in very nice shape and I hate to part with it. As far as selling it, ideaguy, I would rather wait for an interesting trade at this point. Black engineer boots or a motorcycle jacket, etc. Thanks very much for your interest.

Good Day All,
For interesting trade, my navy Filson Cruiser. I bought this coat 13 yrs ago and it has seen light wear with virtually none in the last 5. I'm new to this but I'd say it is in very good to excellent used condition with no tears, all original buttons are in place, all snaps work...
Smoked a pipe for the first time tonight! After reading lots of info here on FL and a few other sites, I strolled down to the local tobacconist and bought an inexpensive corncob (Missouri Meerschaum) and a small bag of a flake blend .
Very enjoyable and I found the ritual to be relaxing. I...
If this is what you mean by a long coat then I will suggest the Filson Cruiser, style 110 in extra long. I just took my 13 yr old one out of the closet and was marveling at how great it still looks. Too bad I've dropped enough weight that it is too big for me now. [huh]
I have some expensive cologne (Armani Curve), some less expensive ones like West India Lime (my fave) but Old Spice is the only one that elicits that elusive 'Mmmmm, you smell good'.
My son (16) just crept past me in height at about 5'11 and I suspect he'll keep on going for a while. His best friend is hovering (literally) around 6'5 right now and his parents are both average.
