  1. I'm currently staying at the Weekly Mansion Akasaka until 1/7/2012 morning. New Year's Eve party was cool jet lag plus liquor caught up to me today though so after walking around Shibuya i came here and knocked out at 8pm. What else is good to do out here?

  2. A few people asked me about my boots from my WDYW.

    Well they are the Crepe Hiking Boots by F-Troupe. They are real nice on the foot aesthetically

    . Leather is cool, but the biggest weakness is the bottom. The boot is not practical as a boot especially for meaningful wear. I may have worn this like 5 times in total since I purchased last month and ....

    The back heel rubber is already worn down to the wood midsole and I know if i keep on wearing them it will bear up all the way and it will be a disaster. I have to take it to the cobbler or something.

    The outside edges parted by a thread sewn on the bottom wears away at a considerably fast rate. You can see little chunks start to get loose and then fall off around the edges I didn't think of it when I was trying the shoe that the rubber was kind of thin, but as I look now I'm thinking it wasn't built with excessive wear in mind. But again I have worn this five times and I walk normally throughout the city. I don't drag my feet either.

    Second issue is around the top of the rubber that runs along the side. I noticed today that it's getting loose in the back. I doubt it will flap down because of the thread tied around it, but for something that is supposed to be of a certain quality it's unacceptable.

    As you can see the front toe is doing the same thing.

    Does this warrant a return? These things are falling apart on my feet it seems I had it for a month and I have to do repairs.
