      Kilties are, in addition to being a tongue protector, allegedly to distribute pressure more evenly from the lacing.

      I also dislike them.

      Think it, be it.

            Form follows function, imo.  But that's one of the reasons I don't usually wear boots at all.

                  You'll be pleased to know, that for some of the retailer orders I have taken for 2 tone lace-ups the client has  specifically requested kilties in both colours, so both can be worn at once….

                  You mean like one color on the right foot and the other on the left, or both kilties on each foot?  I can't decide which would look more bizarre.

                  Probably would still look better than a pair of Chuck Taylors…

                          That seems like it would really be uncomfortable- Wesco already has a tongue that needs to be folded over, so with the double kilties, that's 5 layers of leather under the laces.

                            The folded tongue has the added gusseting functionality of keeping water out; if it's a choice, I'd go that route.

                            Think it, be it.

                                  I can't fucking stand sushi. Finally came to that conclusion today at lunch. I just can't eat a cold lunch or dinner.

                                      FWIW, sushi isn't intended to be served cold.

                                      Think it, be it.
