he guys, slowly getting to normality. still massive work in progress but LIFE TIME GEAR needs some new blog posts. so i do: not a boot today but an awesome ALDEN WORKMAN OXFORD. looks like a low cut ALDEN INDY which i found at spring 2011 closed WINN PERRY STORE. as you know i am a great INDY fan and i love oxford shoes with a workman attitude. owning and loving some pairs of different RED WING oxfords styles i must admit that these ALDENs are outstanding. made of brown HORWEEN CHROMEXCEL leather, including 6 matching metal eyelets and a flat 360welt with natural finish and the typical white stitching. the shoe features not the INDY typical neoprene cork sole but a waterlock oiled leather sole. great! pics | WINN PERRY

found the cup i was ever searching for @ wonderful chicago based INDEPENDENCE store. the cup is made by JACOB BROMWELL. “made of tin. historically accurate and made in small batches without welding or soldering. made by machines built before electricity. made in michigan city, IN.” it’s a pity that the shipping costs are so high, because INDEPENDENCE just ships with UPS. pic | Independence store
as a big CHEVROLET CAMARO fan i especially love the 1967 series, the year of my birth. look at these wonderful designed brochure. what a nice car. thx to “THE OLD CAR MANUAL PROJECT” for this compilation. pics | Chevrolet, THE OLD CAR MANUAL PROJECT
