    Jim Green African Ranger boots

    Many people love the African Rangers ( from what I've seen on Reddit); light weight, wide comfortable toe box, no break in. I was not particularly impressed. Maybe it was the hype. Yes, they are quite comfortable and made with good materials (their insoles are garbage, but that is well...

    Your favorite jacket that you returned?

    Advice on Budget Leather Jacket

    Thanks for the reply. I cannot understand why sizing, whether jackets or footwear , or whatever simply is not standardized. If a jacket has a pit to pit measurement of X then it is a size Y.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    What jacket is this? I have a very similar one in OD green but with a horizontal Velcro opening on the back. Its a CVC, combat vehicle crewman's, jacket. Id like a tan one like yours without the back opening.

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    Thorogood 814-4364. Beautiful boot, but very frustrating size wise. Bought online my Brannock size (9); way big. Exchanged for 8.5; ok in length but PAINFUL, narrow and the vamp where the stitching comes together killed. Currently on an 8 wide; comfortable but a bit wide with lots of heel...

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    Carolina loggers. I had to cut the heel down as I could not stand the high heel. It was about twice as thick as it is now. I had never done any sort of cobblery before, but took a chance. I'm happy how they turned out. Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk

    Recommendations to remove glue residue

    Try heating the glue up a bit with a hair dryer to soften it and make it more tacky. Then apply some tape onto it and peel off. Hopefully the glue will bond to the tape and come off with it. I have no experience with leather, but have done this on other materials and had pretty good results...

    Nylon and Nomex flight jackets

    I have found that the CVC jackets do run a bit small and short, so I would go a size up. The CVC has a more "cotton" like feel and look to it where the CWU is definately more nylon like in terms of look (shiny) and feel. I have also found that my CVC pills like crazy on the inside.
