again again again tcb40s w. various vintage + filson + r.mocs/redwing/cheaney

locked down repeated experiences variations enacted paddling pools becoming quad skate venues shoes blues inky trooz... old news...

liking this... in particular the tcb's seem more relaxed / fuller silhouette now wearing in ... and of course, @mlwdp & @Kit Carruthers masterful both... @JDelage def. buttoned...

f...f...s... well, no. just. no.

@diggers - really enjoying your military and no-cuff with engineers - a lot... for me, back to winter blues 80s gloverall duffle [with poorly arranged toggles...], tcb40s, white socks [winter wool edition], r.mocs

top tux dear dr !

looking fwd to the fit pix @volvo240thebest ... those look in great condition where it matters @fre-co @Broark -the oneida has it own charm ... am enjoying both the chukka and the saddle oneida slip on, but the lamarie suede is most def. suited to yr warmer climes ... some of the cosmicjumper set ups of fishing oxfords look really nice too...

particularly do like suede engineers, not sure I'd tuck tho...

or to stay within the realm of utility, and the non-conventional, yet mildly topical: a source picture to work from... getting ready for the weekly shop in Morrisons [n r farbman from 1954, nuclear science outfits...]

and fug the colonel... here's Walker Evans' 1930s photo from Havana... much better...

in defence of pale costumes: the same again, but different... 'imma dreaming of a cream lockdown pt.72...' vintage-lvc type 1 - nigel cabourn lybro duck - r.mocs

and to stay on meta-track-ing, will all those 'nice things' knives... an old[ish] classic by The Knife (one of whom on the become 'the ray...' above)

Pix!!!! Pls!!!

with the nice things thread showing all these musical gubbins, went to listen to a bit of bandcamp presence of There's Talk / @youngofthesoonest... v. nice, with 'Disinformation' def getting good Fever Ray vibes...

good to hear yr sanity! good tools are worth caring for... but yup 'artisan idyuts' will charge extra for 'nothing-gubbins' if they can reach in yr wallet...
