        I would say Wesco's leather laces are the best readily available

          I would agree.  Mine have been through the ringer and the leather is still holding up phenomenally.  Mine are currently in a pair of Red Wings and I fear they may outlast the boots themselves.

            I've been googling this for sometime now. Does anyone know the kind of cotton Cone Mills uses for their natural indigo fabric? Is it supima?

              That would be my guess.  Definitely American grown cotton so Supima would most likely be it.  Of all the brands using it none that I have seen actually reference the type though.

                I need something from cone mills anyway. Supima would be an added reason.

                  Seems like most fabrics made from supima, they go out of their way to make it known. Pretty sure Cone doesn't use it.

                    Best way to find out is to email Cone directly or a brand like Left Field that uses it.

                                Just curious,does anyone,here,say Rabbit 🐰 Rabbit 🐰,or Bunny,Bunny, or even White Rabbit,White Rabbit upon arising the first of the month. I've been doing it since I was a kid. Supposedly if you say Rabbit,Rabbit ,first thing, upon arising on the first of the month,you shall have good luck for the rest of the month.

                                  My pay check brings me good luck, usually only for the first 2-3 weeks of the month though…

                                    @Jett129 Paula says "A pinch and a punch, for the first day of the month".  I normally reply "shaaaaduuuup"

                                      We've always said, Pinch and a punch first of the month, white rabbits," if you manage to say this before the other person does then you can avoid the punch.. rather a violent start to the month really! [emoji23]
