Red Wing Shoes

[Graeme]

Thanks @Chris.

I'll probably chuck the Red Wings, and put the money towards a pair of something a bit better. I don't think that it's worth spending anything else on them.

Anyone ever put a kiltie on a RW Moc toe?

Can't imagine it looking very good

That's what I'm trying to work out. Suspect you're right, but the extra protection the kiltie gives my Vibergs is golden. The tongue gusset on Red Wings seems to be made of heavier leather so it may not be necessary.

Take the kiltie out of your Vibergs and try on the RW's….

You'd of thought that would have occurred to me wouldn't you. But nooooo… I'm such a tosser [emoji28]

[Giles]

Welsh Tosser, I think you mean…..

[Chris]

Isn't that redundant?

Or is it Welsh sheep shagger I'm thinking of?

[Giles]

Oh, yes of course.  "Welsh" before any derogatory phrase is redundant…..How silly of me....

[Giles]

Thinking about it, I think the same convention applies for Texan and Belgish….

[Seul]

I was about to refer to neph93 as (a) Belgian…

[neph93]

Us Welsh are only tossers when we can't find any sheep. Same with Texans and steers…and the English and their hamsters.

Hamsters! I almost did a spit-take with my coffee. Hilarious

Just like jeans- you gotta get the right fit.

Also, epic thread rot.
