~ the ultimate driving machine ~
This year is going to own. I just paid off a bunch of credit card debt, and I got a huge raise at work towards the end of 2014. My house hasnt broken in any spectacularly expensive ways recently, my 2.5 year old boy is hilarious and awesome and an utter joy to watch grow up. I get actual vacation time this year, 3 weeks! My wife is low maintenence, beautiful, and extremely tolerant of all of my stupid hobbies.

Im not trying to brag. I am 35 and I was a listless and depressed single guy for a long time (most of my 20s), and I can totally empathize with a lot of the posters here and the poo poo you guys are going through. Just try to focus on your own value, and be the best you that you can be. If you need help, go get it. Cut negative influences out of your life and realize when you are using hobbies/the internet as an excuse to not work on yourselves. Have the best 2015 you can, bros.

Left a pair of shoes on the patio overnight - I'd managed to step in dog poo poo (why the gently caress does our dog poo poo on the loving patio?!), and didn't want to hose them off when it 30 degrees outside.

Woke up to find a dead rat in one of them. Damnit. That was my newest pair too.

In the last few weeks I got together with someone really interesting, and my job's going well. 2015's going to own :dance:

Thanks to planefinder and an SDR I heard them fly over my house on the way to their parents for Christmas. That was pretty cool.

This is what 18 months does to a pair of Carolinas. The newer looking ones are a couple weeks old, same exact thing, just bought em again.





Still the most durable boots I've had yet. Not sure why the soles shredded like that...

My Cat shoes (hey shut up they're the only ones making semi-durable steel toe sneakers these days, and I can't wear actual boots) are peeling apart like that too. But I bought them in September '13 and they're still going so they're doing better than my last 2 pairs, usually get 12 months before they're completely hosed and unwearable.

if I haven't posted about MY LANDCRUISER yet, check my bullbars for kangaroo prints

I get Oliver AT's from work and they generally only last around 12-18 months before theyre ruined, unless you go to a burn or a bushfire in them instead of proper fire boots, then the soles are hosed beyond salvage in about 20 mins...

I ruin mine mostly metalworking, stepping on oxy slag on concrete floors is not healthy for boots

I can hope, damnit. I didn't think Michigan State would beat Baylor, and then in the fourth quarter they made up a 21 point gap and managed to win, so anything's possible :allears:

I'd bet money Red Wings will last longer than some made-in-China rebranded Wolverines (Wolverine makes the Cat and Harley Davidson branded boots, and most of their various brands are made in China or Bangladesh).

Plus Red Wings, like most higher end boots, are made to be resoled and repaired and can last for many years. Mine are over 2 years old and still going strong.

While I appreciate that, I seem to not be able to find my local cobbler's shop anymore.

So I'll stick to boots that wear well for a long time....who cares if the can be easily repaired or not.



Currently pleased with pair number <who knows> of Carolinas. Just add kevlar laces and they are perfect for quite a while.
