Nice, hub would always lace zippers into his boots. He'd love those, pre-zippered!

Last pair I bought had zippers on the side.

Sigh..... yes, in HS I had a lovely pair of brown suede boots that I wore with a brown corduroy skirt. I miss those boots.

Yea, that's what happens when design is based on quarterly marketing projections over durability and future sales.
Looking at the "Story Boards" that each design team had to produce with the shoe, you could see it was about producing a package, rather than designing a shoe.

durability and future sales.

I have exclusively worn Reebok Club near to 40 years.


No other style interests me.

Only one pair has ever disappointed me.

I'm picturing it now

I can't do over the knee boots, it looks like I'm wearing waders.

They were below the knee. I could never figure out the appeal of over the knee boots

 

[raratt]

Road trip to get beer, then super burritos at the Taqueria. I don't feel like cooking tonight.

Doesn't seem so bad.

I'd ask her to keep them on.

 

[Laughing Grass]

Doesn't seem so bad.

I think she meant the appeal to the wearer.

I'll go for a triple post. I've been researching e-bikes all week, and decided to build one. I am ordering a 1500 watt rear hub motor today for a donor 26" WalMart aluminum mountain bike I am making into a cruiser. Front suspension only. It'll be for paved trails, or maybe a gravel road. Still deciding on a battery....So many battery choices, from $100 direct from China to $500 for a name brand, buy here battery. I'll probably go middle of the road...Chinese with a warranty bought here in the states, for around $200. Should be able to build it for around $500 with the free donor bike. From everything I have read they are scary fast, over 30 mph. My stimulus money fun project!

This cost me almost a £1000 to re build . Brought back plenty of memories from when I was 11- 13 years old .
Haro bikes where the bikes every kid wanted .
