Probably $300 though.

Those styles rarely fit my feet because of how wide mine are.I know. AE's will be right up your alley. Sort of 50 yr old successful lawyer/banker but ones that fit wide feet and ALL parts are rebuildable.

I do like this ideaArch support comes from the sole though. A good insert can build on it, but if your soul is soft you are lost.

Isn't that what I linked..... I have these exact boots. I purchased them based on the fact they are 100% leather inside...Ha, no. They made it in goretex as well. Same boot, just a permeable layer for those non-sweaty. Basically the same

That and I can't find a pair of shoes worth doing it to. Sucks to have a foot that no one makes shoes for. Allen's are an option, but I like the super aggressive Italian type shoes not the American dress shoes.

You scream for Allen Edmonds and rebuilding.Never seen a pair. I think you mentioned them to me before.... I should look them up. I hate seeing tread on a dress shoe. It annoys the hell out of me. One or 2 rubber soles my whole dress shoe life. Me too, although I have put on ultra skinny ones to save some shoes. Need to do it before the leather gets too soft and then the bottoms last forever. Any shoe repair place can do it. Talking 2mm or so with some traction. Can't see it, I don't like how they feel walking as much, but they seriously save your shoes in the winter.I didn't even know that was done anywhere.... It seems obvious now that you mention it, but I never even looked for it. Thanks! $20 or so too. WAY pays for itself. I'd post pics, but I've sold all my "treated" shoes as I don't dress up in the winter anymore. Really only do when I travel and I've found that I rarely ever see slush in those cases.

Those asolos look nice. I would also say that merrels and keen are good brands. Maybe not as sturdy as those asolos, but better than Nike rebok or anything similarKeen's make great everyday shoes. Their steel toes are super nice if needed as well. I have a crossover pair of Keen's I wear when traveling. Look like dress shoes almost on the outside and walk like hiking shoes, albeit with not enough lacing. Can't have perfect support in dress looking shoe....or at least I haven't seen it.

I've also done 15mi days with over 100lbs of gear wearing those. Part of the gear being a 18'6" canoe. Worst was 6 days in a row like that with 6 pairs of socks. No blisters, no soreness, just fatigue. Days like that a nice camp shoe feels heavenly at the end of it though.

Here is the twin

Those are DYING for insoles if you haven't. In particular considering your body type IMO. AMusingly I have nearly their twin. Mine are the all leather, no inside hiking boot variant of them. No goretex for my sweaty feet. No way, no how. Sure they "breath" but nowhere near enough. If they start making ones out of eVent I'll try, but until something that is waterproof and breathes as well as that I'm out.

No matter what your choice I'd be interested in adding some superfeet or custom insoles. I don't in all my shoes, but all the ones I am going to walk a lot in. Well worth the $50. I've NEVER seen an athletic shoe with good arch support. I don't mean in the store, I mean in real life. I can break those down in a couple good walks.

Something like these white ones here http://www.eastbay.com/product/model:188595/sku:54886100/nike-air-max-+-2013-mens/white/wolf-grey/&SID=7726&inceptor=1&cm_mmc=SEM-_-PLA-_-Google-_-54886100Those will make terrible everyday shoes...at least bang for the buck. WAY too soft. Some support is seriously necessary if you don't want to whack out your body. If it has to be an "athletic" shoe at least make it a trail running/walking instead of indoor. To put things in perspective, my buddy runs. He ONLY wears his shoes for running. Still burns through between 14-20 pairs / year. Only 150lbs as well.

It is VERY possible that you can't hear 25Hz. In particular with some of your previous listening habits. It is on the fence of human hearing and beating on your ears will make it disappear. Even if you can, your sensitivity in that range is horseshit. Doesn't mean you can't feel it, just won't hear it.

Not sure what you mean by everyday shoes. I wear dress shoes, sandals or hiking shoes. That is what I'd call everday...but obviously not everyone would agree. Ryan only wears boots. Crazy fuck.

Have you worked and managed one before?Worked and managed a bar (everything besides payroll)Worked and assistant managed in a resturant before.Grew up in the resturant industry (family owns part of the Hobart corporation), and have been around bars and resturants behind the scenes since I can remember.Part of the reasn for wantng to do this, is seeing a needs for a good mom and pop style one. Not one thats out to charge 4.75 a bottle for bs beer. The nightlife around here has the potential to be amazing with the right atmosphere, location, menu, and pricing. All the bars around here lack at least one (usually very badly) or more of these things.JOk, all good. Tons of my friends tell me to open a restaurant...but none with restaurant/bar experience. It is a different beast. Just wanted to make sure allure didn't overpower reality for you. I just gotta start looking into properties and business plans. I know I can get a VA small business loan, and the plan is to utilize that with enough capital left to cover a minimum of 6 months operating expenses so we open with some head space. For the menu, I want to keep the kitchen open 11-11 sun-thur and 11-1 fri and sat. Limited menu from 11-1 on fri and sat to finger 'drunk' foods. Decor will be sports bar based since chains aside, the 'sports bar' out here is not really a sports bar, but more of a bar with a sports after thought. J Location, location, location, location. Did I mention location?

When you argue that black is pink it isn't going to go well.

Talk, talk, talk. I had the unfortunate luck of finding a best friend after he took a shot gun to his stomach. BOttling up those feelings will NOT help you.

Even granite is inferior to engineered stone. And usually around 1/3 the cost too

Haven't had Iberian, but I've eaten a bunch of Iberico *wouldn't bother with the ham, but almost any other part is worth it. Did I get the name wrong? I love all those exotic hams. I bet the whole pig is yummy if it's fatty and high in the HDL rich fats. I picked up a half pound of serrano, a ring of blood sausage and Ukrainian after my grandpa's funeral. He was the onlyone who ate blood sausage with me. It was kind of cool because his nephew showed up at the deli too. Blood sausage at Victory 44 is numbbie

ie, read that as 10's of course IF they fit

Not sure how you could yet be torn. Perhaps I misread, but I didn't see anywhere in the thread where you stated the largest box you could fit. Until I knew that I wouldn't even think of shopping.
