        Ok, question number two:

        Anyone has any experience with dr. martens? Comfortable? Tried their new line?

        I think that this one looks good as a "black leather boots that will last me a while":

        http://www.dmusastore.com/p-3236-ormond.aspx

        But they are in a completely different price class than my 1000 mile boots and my alden indys and I suspect that I get what I pay for.. suggestions for alternative brouged/wingtip boots with commando soles?

        Seize the day and don't you cry.

          Yea I've got a pair of Martens from their for life range. Very comfortable from new but very soft leather not in the same class as Redwings and the like, having said that they've got a life time guarantee so if they wear out you get a new pair, I also find that the For Life range run large so you might need to size down.
          Don't know about the pair you're interested in so I don't suppose that helps much.

            Thanks for the feedback, not sure if we have any stores stocking these in Oslo, but I think that they look good. Trickster have a similar pair and you can get those customized, but they run in a completely different price class. I wish red wing, alden or wolverine had a pair like that.. I would know the right size and know what I would be getting myself into 🙂

              Ronald: my fav IH cut is the SEXIH07… But I disliked the unsanforised denim... So best solution for me is 634S, downsize 1, and taper from the knee...

              Now I just gotta find a good tailor...

              Contacted Denim Doctor UK… Going through with this...

                  different colour to the Docs I know. I have a pair and like them a lot (though the price seems to have gone up by £25 since I bought mine)

                          Is it blasphemy to take away the arcuates on a pair of IH?

                            It is not… But if you had asked me a year ago whether I liked the arcs on a reg pair of IHs, I would've said no... Now I love 'm…

                            Werder: not sure what your question is, but I too hate the iPhoney gen. and will happily advice getting a Blackberry... Blackberry Storm 3 out any day now (maybe out already?)...

                              I used to hate iPhones, now I hate people who hate iPhones (no hate). It's an anti hate, hate thing.

                              In all honesty though, having used both the iPhone 4 and the Blackberry Torch, the iPhone is far better constructed than the Blackberry, which feels very cheap and plastic in my opinion. I also think that theres a huge element of it being "cool" to hate iPhones at the moment.

                                As an iPhone owner, I can only assume that all the people who hate iPhones have never owned one.

                                I have yet to find another phone that I would rather have.

                                  I have handled a new iPhone and hey: it's not bad!.. But I reàlly love my sturdy BB Storm 2... Looks a lot better as well... Mind you: I do not use my phone for anything fancier than sending texts...  😉 🙂

                                  Oh: and no hate... I just hate anyone who jumps on the iPhoney bandwagon to be contemporary... Shit costs a ton and is not really made well (not to mention employees are working in abominable conditions)... I could make some denim-related comparisons but hey... I'll just have some more sourdesem bread with cheese...  😉

                                        Well…
                                        I think the Iphone s now a statement, and the phone is nothing special at all and still made in China. Our denim
                                        are not made in China as far as I know. My aim in life is to be honest and have honest things. So the denim
                                        is honest ( I hope) the Jacket too ( Aero ) my bike remains japanese..
                                        I stop now  😉 😉
                                        Maybe a Blackberry will solve my mysery , thanks Seul.

                                        My people with an Iphone dont survive a day without a plug..!!

                                        In these days where we still have thoughts about disaster, we should be more conscious°!

                                        OK i going down to the cellar and shoot myself  🙂 🙂 😎
