    I look forwards to your thoughts on them once they're in hand! It's easy to critique from the chair, harder to do when the sole meets the pavement.

    So they just have a small Pro Shop/Factory Outlet up there with limited inventory. But - they had the exact boot I wanted in my size. Quite possibly the most comfortable boot I've tried on and worn for such a short period. I wore them home and time will tell, but they seem very well made. And the price was 20% off up there and I had a 10% off code for signing up for the newsletter. I wouldn't classify this as a work boot, but a very nice casual boot.

    And I avoided which quite possibly would have been a very messy situation. A few cars ahead of me was a Septic Pump truck and there were some cars stacked up behind it. I was following the last car in that line (4th I think) at a reasonable distance as the asshat hadn't cleaned all the snow off the roof. I'm looking up towards the Septic truck and I see the hose come loose from the truck and it's flapping in the wind and spewing kaka all of the cars. The tank wasn't leaking, it must have just been residue in the hose, but it was a fair amount. I had time to pull over and avoid it all.

    I only tied up to that 2nd hole and stuffed the laces back in for the glamour shot. I do wish there were speed lace loops on the top two.
