LIFE TIME GEAR | PRIVATE FAVORITES XIII “WESTERN BOOTS“

i have two favorite western boot brands: LUCCHESE & RIOS OF MERCEDES. my favorite boot
is a style 7 toe boot by LUCCHESE from their CLASSICS COLLECTION, style #L1569 oiled calf boots
in chocolate and a color named buck. it is the “RIO BRAVO” style, because JOHN WAYNE wore
these boots in this film … but not only in this film, JOHN was a great LUCCHESE boot fan. this is
really a perfect old school boot. i put a double leather sole on both and wear them 1/2 size bigger
so that the toes got up. those boots are the most comfortable ones i own. pics | Life Time Gear | others

EAT LIKE A MAN

this is the only cookbook a man will ever need! available at AMAZON. and this is what an editorial review
says – sound interesting: “So long,  dude food. Most men who love food have a roasting pan and a decent
spice rack,  but they’re still looking for that one book that has all the real food they love to eat and wish
they could cook. Esquire food editor Ryan D’Agostino is here to change that with his unapologetically
male-centric Eat Like a Man a choice collection of 75 recipes and food writing for men who like to eat,
cook,  and read about great food. It’s the Esquire man’s repertoire of perfect recipes,  essays on how
food figures into the moments that define a man’s life,  and all the useful kitchen points every man needs
to know. Satisfying,  sexy,  definitive,  and doable,  these are recipes for slow Sunday mornings with
family,  end-of-the-week wind-down dinners with a lady,  Saturday night show-off entertaining,  poker 
night feeds,  and game-day couch camping. Or,  for when a man is just hungry.”


BLUNDSTONE | RUGGED KIDS BOOTS

my son needed 3/4 year to rug down this 2 pairs of really robust BLUNDSTONE boots. they look
great but now they are already finished and to small, too. i just can advise these boots if you have a kid
who likes playin’ in the dirt, driving bobby car like SEBASTIAN VETTEL, jump up the hills with his bike
running through small rivers trying to catch a fish or a frog, hiking, running equal it is raining or dusty.
believe me those BLUNDSTONEs are the best! these are style 530 KIDS in chestnut brown. the black
chelsea boots are my wife’s RED WING 2918 one of her favorite RWs. they are about 6 years old.
and the rugged red one beside is my beloved 8131 from ’94. bad pics | Life Time Gear
