@Nerkg:

I have a hard time seeing a rough out pair having a chance to win

I am very confident that I will not win this competition.  Since I can't wear my boots during the week to work, they will have to be night and weekend boots for me.  That said, due to my heavy travel schedule, I have decided to do a modified world tour of the Boondockers and hope to keep the thread updated with interesting pictures.  My boots may not be well-worn by the end, but they should be well-travelled.

A while back I posted this one (correctly identified as the Spanish Steps in Rome):

Yesterday:

Cadiz, Spain

Tangiers (same clothes, different continent):

Today:

Assilah, Morocco

Bonus shot (for Seul):

Roadside Boondocker/Camel Porn

[madmonday]

great idea & it's not winning or losing but how you play the game, sure some loser said that at one time or the other.

seriously, RP, you tend to have some of the best "fits" on the forum.

great shots
