    The use of Self Edge's copy is not good practice, I doubt it's malicious, just cutting corners at a busy period, as another poster said. I'm not sure how the size chart similarities are bad though - why couldn't T&Y's measurements be the same as SE? Wouldn't that be expected?

    However, Kiya's reaction, although partially justified, does him no justice either and is likely driven by the perceived loss of business to a competitor.

    Hint to T&Y - if you're after jeans sizing charts, I find that BiG are much more accurate than SE!

    ^ This.

    I'd appreciate it if the shit-slinging were taken off line so that consumers can enjoy the thread.

    Beautiful -z-, the combo of narration & photos is magic! And ditto for those cupcakes!!

    I haven't been posting that much lately. December was an insanely busy work month, most of it spent in a suit. But I did get out to do a few interesting things.

    I did a shoot for a dance company - it was a ton of fun, great to be surrounded by all those vastly energetic & talented dancers! Here are a couple of out-takes:

    Once my little one was off from school, we found ways to entertain her & ourselves.

    For the first time in a while, we visited the zoo. Because it is the "off" season, we pretty much had the place to ourselves.

    One of our favourite spots was with the tigers - it's always an interesting feeling when you're not at the top of the food chain!

    The arctic wolves were a blast - we must have spent a good hour howling back & forth with them!

    The rhinos were probably where we spent the most time. There was something fascinating - almost prehistoric - about these giants

    Another trip we did was to visit the Hershey factory store in Niagara Falls - 650 square feet of chocolate extravaganza! Just a few pics to whet your appetites :)

    I keep needing to remind myself that I told myself I would take a break from contests once royxcone is over (though I'm quite intrigued by these pants), so I'll stop cluttering with my questions!

    Sounds like ninja07 is a similar size to me, though, so I'll be curious to see how his 28s wind up! Unfortunately smallest size in the seconds sale is 30.

    Also, just saw this on You Have Broken the Internet (via some other blog):

    look like Left Field, and dude is apparently a buyer for Need Supply so it would make sense. Good looking fit that makes me even more intrigued... dammit...

    This pic mades me sad I passed on these. Should be a great year guys!

    ^ That's something special you got their mate!

    I love the look of that heavy lug unit, works better with the shape of the vamp than the original one I reckon.

    12 hours left to go for me...going to wear the boots around the house at midnight :P

    theblackgoat - those are bloody amazing!

    mike: 26hrs to go for me :D

    Shubha, you've got me blushing. That's the nicest compliment :) But I'd be the first to disabuse you of your romantic notions - and my wife would be the second :D And I'm no homecoming king ;) Thank you nonetheless.

    WAYWT got pretty deep all of a sudden. I never mind neg rep if there is some sort of criticism involved. It's kinda nice to know why you got negged. Not that I'm going to change how I dress to ward off neg rep. Far from it, but it's more out of curiosity of what people disliked and what their personal tastes are.

    As for a lot of regulars who post and get +rep they just consistently do it well or have become a favorite among the other members. It's a natural thing to happen. Same goes for the opposite which is unfortunate sometimes, but again a natural course when dealing with a small online community with specific criteria and taste. Furthermore, fashion is so subjective so whether someone hates a fit or not who's to say they're right or wrong in + or - rep?

    I think tiger has it - behaviours may be exaggerated online, but they do follow many of the social mores we experience in daily life.

    @ cold summer: I thought your waywt was fine - good fit, good shot, nice background. It's true that newcomers do attract a fair bit of flak - kinda like frat hazing. Is it right? Probably not, but that's life. How you'll continue to be treated will be determined more by how you react to stuff. I remember getting shit on a lot in the beginning. Just carry on & wear what you like. :)

    Mega, I agree with tmadd - the dress leather is the way to go - it can take a spit shine that even marineabilly would approve of :) I prefer chromexcel, but then again, i don't want a high shine on most of my boots...

    picked these up today! can i get advice on protectors for snow and insoles?

    If you have room, try the superfeet insoles. Otherwise, the local cobbler usually has a selection ranging from leather ones to the dr scholls stuff. For snow/water/salt protection, you can try obenaufs or snoseal
