    Anyone interested in/wearing original military watches?

    Here are some photos of my Hamilton Khaki that I purchased from the mainside PX at Quantico during the Summer of 1981 while I was at USMC OCS. I sent it back to Hamilton last year for a refurb but it didn't need much just a good cleaning and some parts replaced. My youngest son swiped it and...

    Cowboy Boots

    I thought I would throw these up for your viewing pleasure. These were my grandfather's boots, apparently made in the late forties.

    What kind of boots?

    This is a picture of my grandfather taken in the 20's I think. They lived in LA and spent a lot of time hunting and fishing in the Sierra Nevadas. I love this picture, I've always been curious what kind of boots he is wearing.

    Absolutely agree on quality and fit.....I have three pairs of alden/brooks brothers loafers (2x cordovan and one black) that I have had since the late 80s....

    Sorry, I seem to be dominating the forum this week, but I just completed reading the entire forum from start to finish. I learned a lot, and I've learned that there is a lot I don't know! I am interested in getting a couple more pairs of engineer boots, particularly a pair of custom cordovans...

    I have been wearing my 12Rs non stop since I got them a week ago. They have broken in well and are quite comfortable. They aren't "fancy" at all, just plain, rugged, comfortable, boots.

    I just bought my 12R's at the Frye store in NYC. I tried on several pairs, which allowed me to pick the fit and the leather/tone I liked. I should note I only tried on size 9.5 Gaucho, and there was some differential in fit and color/finish from boot to boot. Bottom line, I got a GREAT pair...

    They do offer US made engineer boots, you need to confirm online. There is a MAJOR different in the feel of the non-US made boots and the US made boots. I would suggest that the current US made boots are comparable to those I purchased in the early seventies. The "fashion" lines seem to be...

    This is my first post on the FL.... I've read this forum with great interest. I've come here from a different path than most of you. I'm not a biker (though I did ride motorcross until i was 50) but got here as a musician. I've started wearing Frye harness boots in the early seventies. I've...
