      Is that to illustrate that change happens to almost everything with time, not just your memory?

        Sadly, yes.  To clarify, if winters were miserable like they used to be, then I would remember to buy cleats due to necessity.

        However, since winters have been getting warmer, I forget that the cleats would be handy for the few slippery days every winter.

        Mid winter, cold weather cabin fever, brain fog has set in.  I really need a week in some tropical location for some warm weather alcohol induced brain fog (much more enjoyable).

            Wow… it’s all happening on this thread...

            @motojobobo and @goosehd … love both those pairs of JM’s.. goosed, you look very similar to mine but with extra ‘ shit kicker’ soles.. that burlap on giles’s  mr Lou’s? Looks neat too.

            I’ve just received my custom Jobmasters this morning after a 4 month wait…, single midsole in charcoal, bit of a gamble as I want sure how They’d turn out but they are awesome. I went for an ‘E’ width rather than the D on my others, and I must say having worn them all day, have been a lot more comfy from the get go. The others took and age to break in but almost like slippers now😀

                    All of the talk about Wesco yesterday made me check out what’s new with them.  Found this picture on Facebook.  I don’t need any more boots, but….....

                      The last few pages of this thread are phenomenal! Can't wait to see those Packers @Graham.

                      I reckon it's about time for me to get some roughout burlap Johannes boots. I've been going back and forth with Chris at Wesco with my ideas. I'll post the final build once I make up my mind.

                                  @Baba-san how’s the grip in the snow?  I like the look of the 700 sole.

                                            I guess its hard to predict what the public wants sometimes..like when I look at certain items on the outlet.
                                            Calculated risk. Or even when you yourself think..this won't do well…and it just takes off !
