Since the warm weather is here in NE Ohio, I've started wearing an older pair of sandals to try to keep cool. The bad thing is this pair of sandals will need replaced soon. I've never had a pair of Croc's, so my question would be should I buy a new pair of sandals or Croc's? I'm looking at them as a pair of around the house type of cooler work shoe in the warmer weather. Which would be best in your opinion? Are there any sturdy made sandals ( ie - what brand )? Could any of you Croc/sandal wearers help me decide?
Just watch the regular ones on any wet, smooth surface. Like greased pig snot on an ice rink. That's why I won't touch them anymore. Some of their models do have better grip, but the classic ones are a risk.
Crocs are awesome. Have an old camo pair. New camo pair. And even picked up some fur lined camo ones for $5 when gander mountain was going bankrupt one of the many times. I’ve even worn them on the trips to Walmarks…
Regular Crocs, no way, but I have some Croc brand flip-flops. They're awesome.
Plus 1
My flip-flops are Croc brand. They’re comfortable and are on the start of the 3rd summer. Most other brands I’ve been lucky to get a summer out of before they wear down or the toe thing rips out.
I also bought a a pair of synthetic Birkenstocks, wear those around the house only. Not that I am afraid to wear them in public, they are just my house shoes.
I don’t like open-toed sandals like Chacos outdoors, I get tired of banging up my toes.
For about as long as they’ve been out I wore them for everything, indoors and out. The traditional ones really are slick on wet surfaces but they make a version with black sole inserts that aren’t.
Then Crocs came out with a closed toe sandal called Swiftwaters which have been a favorite the last five years but they just stopped making them.
My latest fave - World Wide Sportsman Water Shoes (really sandals}, $40 at Bass Pro, a much more supportive sole but still lightweight and flexible.
I HATE sandals!!! Refuse to wear them. I consider feet to be the ugliest body part, both male and female. Don't want to look at them. Period.
Used to wear old sneakers on my little fishing boat, but last year I bought my first pair of Crocs. Best boat shoes ever! Great for the beach at the gun club lake as well. But not, I repeat not, for about town casual wear. I'm sold on 'em.
Crocs are awesome for a lot of things. Super light weight slip ons around camp when you come back from stomping around in your boots all day. Take off your boots when crossing a stream in the high country. On the boat when you take off your chest waders. On the beach when you get out of the swimming hole. Lots of uses for a lightweight foot cover. I don't use them to go to town.
I never gave Crocs any consideration until I tried them. Been having issues with my feet lately and all I can say now is I truly don't look forward to having to wear anything else. As much as I'd love to pull on my favorite boots, my feet love Crocs...
Nearest thing to either were shower shoes aka flip flops. To prevent getting athlete's foot or other fuuged up schitt my hoofs would get exsposed to in questionable shower facilities planet wide.
Work boots or Sneakers Type of guy.
And sneakers only at home or long ago when I did PT.
I dont wear shorts either...
I will keep my comments and opinons about mens choices of footwear or shorts to myself. That is your own perogitive...
However.... I will post a vid of what my ideal veiw of attire would be subsituting Jeans and earth tone color t shirts and a pair of good boots for the overall black tone theme of the clothing in this vid. 👍👍👍😄😄😄😄
I’ve always worn slides on the deck or while grilling. This past year my brother bought me a pair of camo Crocs. I really like them. Comfortable to wear, light weight. Great for wearing out to pee in the driveway at deer camp at 3am. Don’t give 2 Schitz what people think about them.
I guess the new comfy shoes are slip ons called “Hey Dudes”. We were at bible study and my wife and a couple female friends were talking about how great they are. One woman said “Ron, you should get a pair of Hey Dudes!” I told her I’d rather slam my leg in my truck door. I looked over and one of the men was wearing them. I laughed and said “But they look good on you”! Lol

Ron
Two of my sons swear by them. I am tempted given my screwed up toes.
The sun tan dots dont bother me, but the little stones and sand that get into the things bother me alot. After i launch my jon boat i hold them over the side and rinse all that out. Not as easy after retreiving the boat however. Any of the shoes that have weep holes do the same. So for that reason the crocks work best for me as for boat shoes for my type of boating and the places i do it. But other than when using my small boat i never wear them.
Retired, and cool as Fugk. That’s a game changer and makes it perfectly acceptable.
Yessir - geedubya has it goin' on!
Any backpackers on here? They make great spike camp footwear since they don't weigh but a few ounces and don't take up any real estate inside the pack. Just tie 'em on to the pack.
First time I saw some backpackers with them tied onto their packs I thought "That's totally gay", but then once I was at my own destination and set up camp I thought "Why the fugg didn't I bring a pair."
Sure is nice to take off the boots at camp and slide into a pair of these. Fair weather stuff, of course.
In public? Well, yeah, once in a while. But I'm getting to be the age IDGAS what anyone thinks.
^^^^^ yep, I wear Crocs most of the time when some other heavy duty foot protection isn't required. IDGAF what anyone thinks, could buy most people that don't like it. 🤣
Go with sandals. While very comfortable on your feet, Crocs in bare feet aren't great for walking, for me anyway. Feet get sweaty in them, skin sticks and rubs and get blisters easily. They're great for slipping on quickly to go outside for a few quick light chores or boating/pool, but their real strength is the cushioning they provide if you are on your feet all day. Wear socks.
I used to think Crocs were gay before I bought some... they may still be, but I am comfortable enough in my skin that I have worn them for 20 years. VERY comfortable... and cheap. If you don't like them, you really are not out of much.
I walked into a body shop, the man was wearing sandles, shorts, and a tank top. Grinding on a car, Sparks dancing between his toes, I looked, and said, you can dress any whey you like!

For around the house, doing a bit of work in the garden, and that sort of thing, I think Crocs are hard to beat. I've worn one pair out pretty much completely using them for those purposes. They are light, comfortable, slip on and off easily and you can wash them if they get grotty.
They aren't perfect for everything though. Not my choice for fishing or the boat for example, as they aren't so great when wet, and they aren't great for going for a brisk walk either. I prefer sandals for warm weather for these sorts of applications. I've had a good run with Teva.
I used to wear flip flops a lot when I lived in the south. Moved to AK and quit wearing them except for in the house. Got my first pair of crocs in 2018 when I contracted as my flip flops were only for the shower, and you couldn’t wear flip flops outside your living quarters. I wear crocs quite a bit now, I forget t I had them on today and even wore them to Lowe’s after we got home from camping.
I expect you already know mesquite thorns just go right through ‘em 🙂
And not much protection from rattlers or dog cactus.
I've a friend that sez' "It ain't easy being Macho".
ya!
GWB
Believe it or not, a timber/canebrake/velvet tail rattler are protected in Texas.
I've been told there's seasons on some varmints in Georgia, dumbass politicians will get you killed if let them. I have no idea what the laws are in Georgia regarding snakes. If it's poisonous or has a triangular looking head it's dead on my property.
A real man wears whatever da fug he wants on his feet, because he’ll beat the shít out of some doosh bag that calls his choice gay.
🖕👍👊💪
And he doesn't ask another man what to wear...
Anybody who wears crocs or sandals doesn't have the first fuuckin clue what real men do. They probably wear lace panties and skirts for comfort too.
Settle down, Kaitlyn.
They make wellingtons for those too old and fat or lazy to lace up a pair of boots.
Posters like this fail to have the intellectual horsepower to understand that wearers of sandals, crocs, jap slaps, etc., also wear other foot wear as conditions necessitate.

Posters like this lack the intelligence to understand that there are no conditions under which sandals or crocs are acceptable. It's no wonder so many boys are such pansy assed little gender confused snowflakes these days when you consider the examples set for them.

Odd, never thought my son to be a 'pansy assed little snowflake' as he is the person that gave me all of my Crocs.
He doesn't have 7.99999 million acres to hunt like Blackie so I guess that qualifies him as a 'PALS' too?

I wouldn't consider you worth the price of a good pair of boots either.

Sometimes conditions, like hunting grouse, dictate I wear moccasins
Went out to birthday dinner with the wife the other evening. Actually put on long pants, long sleeved dress shirt, XXXX Stetson, and a nice pair (for me) of real boots. No tie though, I can't think of conditions that allow for the other guy to get a head start on a hangin'.
When I worked I at times had to wear steel toes. When I use the mower or weed whacker I wear closed toe slip on or lace up shoes/boots. When I hike in the snow I wear appropriate footwear. When I go in the water I will sometimes wear water shoes due to the asshats and their broken bottles at the swimmin' hole. No need for them in my house. No need for any shoes, as we do our best to keep our house danger free.
When it's 95* F outside I don't wear a layer of merino, regular clothes, a set of insulated bibs, wool shirts, wool vest, wool jacket, scarf, beanie hat, and gloves.
When it's - 10*F I don't wear shorts, a t shirt, a ball cap and go barefoot.
When I'm not aboard a floating vessel........................I don't wear a freakin' life vest either.
Shoes/boots are like all other outerwear.........................REAL MEN wear what's appropriate.
Nope. Dear wife does after a spin with a scorpion.
Yikes Ed.
Hopefully it wasn't too hurtful.
Does she shake her shoes out in the AM to make sure one of them critters ain't in there already? Learned about that as a kid, camping in the desert with experienced "older folks". Either that or take socks off and turn them over one's boot tops to keep the little bastids out.
We're lucky up here, there are a few and we've even had one get inside the house in the 5+ years we've been here. Not anything like where a relative lives near Lake Havasu. They keep after them with a blacklight in the yard a few times a week and almost always spot some. I think they spray around the base of the house too.

I've yet to see a time when boots of some sort weren't appropriate except when running shoes/sneekers were called for.

Bitch, my balls are so big I doubt you could pick em up, wtf you talking about?
You never know what you're going to run into or where you need to go. You leave the yard or get off pavement much you're going to be poking through blackberry brambles, multiflora rose and/or mud and I want boots for that. Just the other day I had the dogs out for a walk around town when a dog came barreling out of somebody's back yard and went after my dog. A swift kick to the ribs changed his mind. I doubt it would have been near as effective with sandals.

Seein' as how I can carry mine around all day, I'm sure the little shriveled nuggets of a croc wearer would be an insignificant addition to my load.
I've got boots, I've got crocs, I've got proud meat, and I don't give two fuggs what anybody thinks of any of it. Didn't think men worried about that kinda [bleep].

Some of you real manly men might try a pleated skirt, lace panties and a tube top to go with your crocs and sandals. I'm sure they'd be cool and comfortable and would make a cute little ensemble as well as making a strong statement of security in manhood. LOL

This is what most of my yard looks like. I go where I want in it, barefoot, sandals, boots, romeos, whatever I happen to be wearing. I worry not about a dog attacking my or my dogs, I'll kick them with whatever I should happen to be wearing, or I have an item accessible (even in town) that is much more effective than a pair of Red Wings.
Wife and I took the dogs up this road, it's no longer got snow on it, yesterday a mile or so to the next section gate. Was talking to the rancher neighbor who moved his cows onto this allotment yesterday after we got home, and while he was up in the area of that gate working fence in preparation for moving the cows on, heard something move behind him only to see a lion skittering away. I have more to worry about with coyotes and lions than I do with dogs and therefor prepare more for them and other possibilities. I've walked up that road barefoot, sandals, boots, LL Bean Mainers, haven't had to use snowshoes yet. And yes, I've walked through sagebrush grasslands more than once barefoot or in moccasins. If I run across a berry patch, or roses, or chaparral that I absolutely have to go through rather than around, I'll take responsibility for poor planning, or I go get proper equipment. I've yet to have anyone chase me through them attempting to take my life. We'll have a shootout before that happens.

Pull your piece to shoot somebody's dog on the sidewalk in town and you're probably going to have an unwanted interaction with the police. A boot to the ribs is preferable when it will suffice and is going to be much more effective than a sandal. We ain't got lions here. We do have bears and coyotes, sometimes even in the yard but generally not in town. You ain't getting far out of the yard here without going through something with thorns, poison ivy and/or mud. I'll stick with boots thanks.

Don't wear white after Labor Day.
That's all I have to say about that "choice" thing.
I think you need to define what you mean by sandals. Some have an enclosed hard rubber toe box and are stout enough to use when you're wet wading western freestone rivers.

We have a great sheriff here, and from what I've heard the Chief of Popo in town ain't so bad either. Dog trying to kill mine, if I choose to not let the air out of his lungs first and decide to put holes in him instead, they'd likely see to it I didn't spend much time in the klink.
But, you keep wearing your boots in the house, around the yard, in town..............wherever you choose to because that's your right.
Don't think of other men as less than "real" because they choose differently though. Makes no sense.
Thanks Geno, Not even going to cross the Mucks line.
I have a really hard time finding "rubber" boots. The XtraTuffs were really popular up in AK, can't hardly get my foot in them, high instep maybe? Tried the Muck deal too, similar and they are way spendy for my tastes.
I have a pair of El Cheapo, black "rubber" farm/milk boots as we called them. Oversized so I can get my foot in them with some wool socks if it's really cold out.
Forgetaboutit when it comes to those LaCross types that lace up and have fitted ankles. Not gonna work on these feets.

There are no town cops here so you'd most likely be dealing with the State police and most of them are dicks. You'd want that dog to be attacking YOU, preferably with some puncture wounds to prove it before using deadly force if you didn't want to be paying an attorney to defend you in court. At the very least you'd likely be charged with discharging a firearm within the village limits with the possibility of animal cruelty and reckless endangerment charges on top of that. Shooting a dog without good cause constitutes felony animal cruelty here.

We ain't got lions here. We do have bears and coyotes but generally not in town. You ain't getting far out of the yard here without going through something with thorns, poison ivy and mud. I'll stick with boots thanks.
We have a great sheriff here, and from what I've heard the Chief of Popo in town ain't so bad either. Dog trying to kill mine, if I choose to not let the air out of his lungs first and decide to put holes in him instead, they'd likely see to it I didn't spend much time in the klink.
But, you keep wearing your boots in the house, around the yard, in town..............wherever you choose to because that's your right.
Don't think of other men as less than "real" because they choose differently though. Makes no sense.
There are no town cops here so you'd most likely be dealing with the State police and most of them are dicks. You'd want that dog to be attacking YOU, preferably with some puncture wounds to prove it before using deadly force if you didn't want to be paying an attorney to defend you in court. At the very least you'd likely be charged with discharging a firearm within the village limits with the possibility of animal cruelty and reckless endangerment charges on top of that. Shooting a dog without good cause constitutes felony animal cruelty here.

They'd most likely let the village idiot off with a slap on the wrist.
I've got boots, I've got crocs, I've got proud meat, and I don't give two fuggs what anybody thinks of any of it. Didn't think men worried about that kinda [bleep].
"Real men" don't concern themselves with what other men wear.
You never know what you're going to run into or where you need to go. You leave the yard or get off pavement much you're going to be poking through blackberry brambles, multiflora rose and/or mud and I want boots for that. Just the other day I had the dogs out for a walk around town when a dog came barreling out of somebody's back yard and went after my dog. A swift kick to the ribs changed his mind. I doubt it would have been near as effective with sandals.
This is what most of my yard looks like. I go where I want in it, barefoot, sandals, boots, romeos, whatever I happen to be wearing. I worry not about a dog attacking my or my dogs, I'll kick them with whatever I should happen to be wearing, or I have an item accessible (even in town) that is much more effective than a pair of Red Wings.
Wife and I took the dogs up this road, it's no longer got snow on it, yesterday a mile or so to the next section gate. Was talking to the rancher neighbor who moved his cows onto this allotment yesterday after we got home, and while he was up in the area of that gate working fence in preparation for moving the cows on, heard something move behind him only to see a lion skittering away. I have more to worry about with coyotes and lions than I do with dogs and therefor prepare more for them and other possibilities. I've walked up that road barefoot, sandals, boots, LL Bean Mainers, haven't had to use snowshoes yet. And yes, I've walked through sagebrush grasslands more than once barefoot or in moccasins. If I run across a berry patch, or roses, or chaparral that I absolutely have to go through rather than around, I'll take responsibility for poor planning, or I go get proper equipment. I've yet to have anyone chase me through them attempting to take my life. We'll have a shootout before that happens.

And folks harp on Cali?
Good cause to me is my dog is on a leash, the attacker isn't, my dogs cost the wife a good chunk of change, our dogs participate in and take ribbons in performance events, we're not willing to lose our investment to any loose mutt, and if your dog hurts my dog unprovoked their will be a price to pay. etc etc.
Bought these Croc style shoes on closeout thinking they might work well in the pedal yak. I was right. They are perfect. The question is, are they enough to trigger Blowheard?

You go to a college town here you can see young men wearing everything from pajamas to skirts and pantyhose with high heels and sandals around town in broad daylight. I suppose to the manly men campfire brain trust that's perfectly acceptable and just shows how very secure they are in their manhood. I find it repugnant and laughable. I feel the same about the old gray haired hippies wandering around the streets of Woodstock with their baggy shorts, tie dyed T-shirts, pony tails, sandals and earrings. Laughable.

I'd have killed that dog if I had to the other day. Thankfully I was wearing boots and didn't have to.
“People with long second toe are qualitative leaders. They are dynamic and creative, and can be bossy. However, people with smaller second toe are not a pushover, but it means they desire harmony. It is also believed that those, who have a bigger second toe have a tendency to have an upper hand in their relationship and marriage; dominance comes naturally to them.”

Spandex is even worse attire for a man than sandals and baggy shorts but not by a lot. I suppose sandals are alright on the beach if you're not going barefoot but that's about it unless you have a vagina.
Every now and then a thread comes along that deals with concepts far beyond the understanding of mere mortals and features dialog that most of us struggle to even begin to comprehend. This has not been one of them.

But, I was wearing the appropriate snow boots for the job, so that's got to be good for a coupla points?
Looks like a fashion statement to me. Certainly not practical to have all that hair in the summer heat of Cali. I suggest a trip to Woodstock where you'd fit right in.
Sure there is. An old sourpuss who only knows one way and rails about how anybody who doesn't think like him or do things his way is pathetic.
But that's not the word I'd use.
I know plenty of ways. However I can only condone my way. Go to Woodstock and watch all the pathetic old commies walkin' around stoned, piggin out at all the sidewalk restaurants, thinkin their dirty, greasy, smelly, wrinkled old asses are still hip. Most pathetic spectacle you'll ever see.

Shower boots? Vac sealed? Or wear them? To be prepared, at a moment's notice?
Can they be wedge soles? You know, city boots to not offend?
Or (grunt, grunt) FullfukkinVibramlugassualtbootstyle? Just in case one is assaulted by an enraged dog wearing a black berry bramble coat?
Not sure when I last suddenly encountered 5 miles of multiflora rose I had to go through. Have been at a softball game and went in the woods/weeds to get a foul ball.
Compass? Check. Backup? Check? Water supply? Check. Notify someone where to search? Check. Knife? Almost always. Bear repellant? Check. Boots? Awwwwwwwwww no! I got Crocs.
F' it. They fought in Valley Forge in the snow bootless.
Made sure there were hero photos of my brave adventure.... And SOB!!!
Some 8 year old little girl ran in the woods barefoot and got the&&$#!!@#&((&!!!!! ball while I was preparing.😣😣😣😣😣😣😣😣

Slackass!
My youngest son told me he was going to get his ear pierced and wear an earring when he was in high school. I told him not while he lives here he ain't and if he did I'd rip it out. He never did get one.

The Adirondack Police put out an APB for a drunk retiree wearing ASSLESS chaps , vest, and hot pink crocs. Said he goes by Blackheart on tha Innanet. Swears he never played the skin flute for the Village People.

Badda bing!
Easy to bring the queers into the open on the fire. All you gotta do is criticize their gay ass footwear. LMAO
I tried crocs 15 years ago on my fishing skiff. They didnt work out. My feet would slide around too much when wet. Which is all the time. The ankle strap would stretch and cause a dangerous situation for me. I cant keep flip flops on my feet. Some kind of Teva sandal works best for me between the two choices. But I mostly wear a slip on boat shoe of some sort if I am not in lace up fishing shoes. For hunting camp I wear a short slip on shoe from muck when I am not in my hunting boots. Crocs seem to work for a lot of folks.
Well, imo if you can't afford new boots, you will find something at thrift store in your budget. There are boots that feel like runners, so there is really no need for runners. Beyond that, being properly shod affects your posture, protects your feet and improves traction. So, as a landowner, when someone shows up in sandles, short pants, no hat he looks like a freeloader to me .If they show up with Oxford shoes, a suit and tie they are Morman or Jehova Witness....or a Revenewer If they pound on the door wearing, full leggings, good boots, a proper hat and a Leatherman on their belt, I believe they might have relevant to say or do. I digress, but I don't have any particular need to se another man's feet and if they were properly shod I would not. My little old opinion, folks

Canadians and New Yorkers wander around in leggings and boots I guess.
Leggings being another word for yoga pants.
Men wouldn't wear yoga pants any more than they'd wear sandals. I personally doubt your morbidly obese ass could waddle far enough from the house to ever need boots but keep telling yourself what a fine figure of a man you are anyway. LMFAO

You'd be quite surprised at how well the beard and long hair insulate from the heat. Having lived in places where it actually gets hot, no heat index needed, I might know.
Not sure if that was the day the official thermometer at the station read 126-128F, but we'd have weeks where it was over 110F every day and would hit 120+ more than a few times every summer.
Haven't shaved the beard since '79 -'80, so that might be an indication a Real Man can deal with little things like that.
But, I was wearing the appropriate snow boots for the job, so that's got to be good for a coupla points?
Were you wearing crocs that time you went wheeling? In the creek 😁
Driving barefoot. Sandals under the seat to get out when I arrived at the docs.
Had to wade down the creek 50' or so, over rocks and boulders and what not just to get past the majority of the brambles on the bank so's I could climb over the boulder rip rap armoring the road and get up to where help was arriving. 45F air temp maybe, drizzling, me in a t shirt and shorts, barefoot. Have now idea what the water temp was, Real Men like me aren't concerned about little things like that in those conditions.
Was lucky, the 4 Mexican fellas ( I didn't ask if they were immigrants of any flavor) that saw my car in the creek and had turned around to come back and check provided me with a thin jacket and a pair of flip flops. Some lady came by and donated me a blanket. Good thing too, as it took awhile (it usually does Out West) for the official helpers to arrive.
I guess I could have dressed for the occasion at home, put on my wet suit or at least the chest waders, for a 180 mile drive. That would have made for a comfortable 3+ hours. That might be what some folks would think appropriate.
PS, I was lucky enough to get the sandals back, my worn out favorites, when we got my scheidt out of the tow yard.
I never could wear flip flops for any extended period of time. I bought a nice pair of leather Olu Kai flip flops in Maui last year so that I had some fancy dress up flip flops for high falootin joints but after an hour or less of wearing them the space between my big toe and second toe starts hurting. I’ve got a half dozen pairs of flip flops from $5-$125 and they’re all as uncomfortable as hell.
I’ve never owned a pair of crocs and likely never will, they’re not my style. If I need something akin to Crocs then I’ll throw on one of the dozen pairs of Romeos that I have since they’re comfortable and they slip on easily. I mostly wear square towed Wolverine boots anymore but occasionally in nice weather I’ll wear Romeos. My boots are as comfortable as my Romeos but offer more protection so they get the nod most days.
I never spent much time worrying about the footwear of other men but I use the rule of 70 when I do….if anyone under 70 years old or with an IQ above 70 wears Velcro tenny runners I turn tail and head the opposite direction since they’re likely a few apples short of a bushel…😁

Yeah, more insulation is always good in the summer. That's why I always wear my insulated boots and parka in August. Look, I grew a beard and let my hair grow out for winter/hunting season for years. I'd shave and cut my hair short in the summer because it's cooler and I've spent enough time in a 120-130* hay mow stacking bales to know. It's fine by me if looking like a scurfy ass old hippie makes you happy and helps you feel like a manly man. I guess if my mug was too damned ugly to go out in public without scaring old ladies and small children I might keep it covered with a beard all year myself. Fortunately that isn't the case so I can enjoy being clean shaven in the warmer months .
Well, if you have insulation in the attic/under the roof of your house and don't believe it helps in the summer, I suggest you take it out every spring before it starts heating up.

Don't know about you but my internal body temp runs about 99*. My house doesn't have an internal temp like that so insulation will help keep the cooler air in and the heat out. Just gave my long haired dog his summer shave last week. Without it he suffers in the heat.
Yeah, and the beard and long hair keep my face at 98F and keep the 100F+ degrees off. Along with some evaporative cooling too.
I've found my head will sweat and cool from evaporation much better if it ain't covered in a thick layer of insulation, which is why I don't wear an insulated winter hat in the summer.. If insulation helps keep you cooler in the summer more power to ya. You might try ditching the shorts and wearing some insulated pants and insulated long sleeved shirt or maybe even a coat. That should keep you positively comfy on those scorching hot summer days. Or have you heat stroking out in short order.

Good evening Blackheart. I am currently helping a Mexican crew with a remodel on the western slope. Those guys do just like you say and work their asses off wearing hoodies , long pants, insulated steel toes and its typically over 65 ? Occasionally as hot as 90. I dont know how they do it? I'm in shorts and tee shirt and those guys are bundled up like winter.
I was on a vacation with a Polish woman on Marthas Vineyard one summer. We went to the nudie beach just about every day for 3 weeks. Not a stitch on and I was always hot ?
Wind coming off the coast, neked as a jay same as everyone else and just hotter'n hell all the time? Funny story, when guys gotta take a leak, they wade out into 4 feet of water and pee. You can always tell because it takes a minute to get used to the temperature change. You cant just bust out a gushing stream of piss when entering a cold ocean. Women just stay put and pee little holes in the sand just where they sit. Pretty handy for them.
Anyway I dont think there is a fool proof way to stay cool and its situational at best. How did your Aunt that had the covid do? You never mentioned her after posting.
Yeah, and the beard and long hair keep my face at 98F and keep the 100F+ degrees off. Along with some evaporative cooling too.
I've found my head will sweat and cool from evaporation much better if it ain't covered in a thick layer of insulation, which is why I don't wear an insulated winter hat in the summer.. If insulation helps keep you cooler in the summer more power to ya. You might try ditching the shorts and wearing some insulated pants and insulated long sleeved shirt or maybe even a coat. That should keep you positively comfy on those acorching hot summer days. Or have you heat stroking out in short order.

She's still alive and doing well. Thanks for asking. You sure those Mexicans aen't shooting up ? Reason I ask is I used to work with a guy that did and he was always cold and wore a hoodie on the hottest days.

I'm pretty sure they are clean , we all had to do piss tests for the home owners insurance to remain intact for being "invited" on the premises. Even the lawn crew had to pee? I'm glad your Aunt is OK.

You're a funny fellow for sure.
When it gets really hot, sometimes loose thin clothing is exactly the thing to do.
Insulated "clothing" defeats the air circulation/evaporative cooling thing. A beard doesn't.

Even an old guy like me has that figured out.
I've found when it's really hot the less clothing the better I like it so I generally take my shirt off. Of course nothing will really keep you "cool" when it's really hot but like my long haired dog, the less hair I have the better I feel. All the guys I worked with on the railroad apparently felt the same. We'd start in the wee hours of a cool summer morning wearing long sleeved shirts but by mid morning they had all been shed along with the T-shirts underneath and everybody was bare chested.
Try to keep my hair at a traditional length in the summer,let the back grow in the winter to keep my neck warm.
With the barber being head dishwasher also, we both have to feel like cutting my hair. I normally get really shaggy by spring. As hair combed straight down will be below my nose, and the back is longer.
My head sweats a lot normally, as soon as temps hit 70s it becomes unbearable. Gotta get it hacked.
Maybe you need the beard too? Maybe it's a thing that you adapt to?
I know I hate long sleeves on my arms and almost never wear them, like shorts in the summer and wear them untill it gets cold enough that my knees ache. The body must adapt to that, because I dam near melt when I wear pants at first, and even a long sleeve T shirt is unbearably hot unless it's really cold. We have guys at work walking around in hoodies over long sleeved T shirts, one wearing a beanie. In in shorts and a T, and sweating if I'm working hard, wearing a vest if not too busy.
It's not that I couldn't post pics, it's that I simply don't want to. Drives you fuggin simpletons nuts that you can't goad me to it.
We all know why you won't post one, you know you'll get outed from all your bullsheit. You skeered of the Renegade 🤣🤣🤣
It seems difficult for some to understand that I simply don't care enough about what they think to bother. Why should I ? Conrad is a fat, lazy slob and should keep pics of himself to himself.

What would I have to gain from it ? You don't employ me and never did. I don't seek business as I've retired. I no longer desire to work. What do you do for a living ? Do you post pics of your work ? Most people can't these days because they don't actually produce anything.

Are you the moderator or something? Conrad posts some good pics, I like seeing them. If you don't, you know what to do.
For the rest of you guys wondering why blackie don't post no pics, it's because he doesn't want his pic re-posted here:
Nope. But he didn't wear blue jeans, a T-shirt or a ballcap, either.
I'm too slow to run from trouble anymore. And pretty much too lazy to fight. But sandals and crocs really F up a guy's fight or flight game. I ain't wearing either. EVER.

I employed you when you were on the govt dole. Aka unemployment.

No you didn't dipshyt. That's unemployment INSURANCE that was paid for by MY employer the same as everyone else that works on the books. You no more paid for that than you did my employer provided health, vision or life insurance. Good deflection from answering the questions of what you do for a living and if you post pics of your work though.
Any man who has to have boots on his feet to feel manly is suspect.
I feel plenty manly all the time but any male who wears sandals is plenty suspect as far as I'm concerned and likely suffers some gender confusion issues at the least.
How does a "fat, lazy slob" manage to work some few hundred head of sheeps, whatever number of cows, plant and harvest good lord knows how many acres, raise chillens and teach 'em to shoot and ride motor scooters and what not, cook, play music, get to town for supplies, fix rigs, and such niceties of life?
I'm perplexed.

do them red longhandles qualify as "Yogurt pants"?
That show was far better than anything since......and I don't just mean late night
We still get the re-runs here. It's kind of cool to see his monologues, some of those are like looking at history since he was always busting on whoever was president and commenting on current events.
And seeing the big stars before they were famous. The other night he introduced Jerry Seinfeld and botched his name because no one knew it then.

If he was working that hard he wouldn't have had time to make 43,000 posts since 2016 and he wouldn't weigh 400 pounds.

Collecting unemployment, I wonder what that's like?
Never mind, I know you can't describe it either.
Maybe because your business wasn't forced to shut down by gov't mandate ? Other than that, there are lots of seasonal outdoor jobs in the North that shut down every winter and the employees collect unemployment. There are also lots of factory jobs that run boom and bust depending on contracts where the employees are laid off during the off times and collect unemployment. Those employers want and expect it that way. They don't want their trained workers finding other jobs in that down time and not coming back when called.

Almost as bad as a cane patch.
I don't know anything about cane but I'd love to see some of you macho men go through blackbrerry brambles wearing crocks or sandals and shorts. You'd regret it before you got very far.
Y'all gonna be shocked and amazed at the risks I took this morning.
While I did slip on a pair of comfortable, old, decrepit, well broken in (OK, broken down) romeos to go feed and water the Gulag this morning, I then proceeded over the course of the next few hours to pick up the dog crap, move the sprinkler, turn on the water (set a timer so the well don't run dry), do my laundry, go back and turn off the water, take the clothes out to hang on the fence, play with the old dog, all while walking around on the rocks, gravel, dried up cut weed and grass stubble, in danger of running across one of these critters that was in the yard 1 Sept last fall:
and I didn't even have to put boots on! Or sandals.................and for sure no crocs around this place.

And you know this how, exactly?
I used to be a full time farm hand. I grew up with farmers on both sides of the family. I knew every farmer for miles around. None had the time to do much other than work 12-14 hours a day. They also burned enough calories and had little enough leisure time for calorie intake that none were morbidly obese. Of course farming was different back then and a lot of stuff that was done by hand is now done by machine. Spending hours a day in the cab of a tractor doesn't burn many calories.

Danny be barefootin' though:
Do you have blackberries, thorn apple and multiflora rose out there ? I don't recall seeing any in Montana, Idaho or Washington when I was out there. They grow around the perimeter of my yard and there's a couple acre patch of blackberries and multiflora rose out back between the yard and the woods.

or bring a machete.
You've obviously never been in a blackberry bramble patch so you might better just STFU. There are trails yes, but you'd need to be a midget or go on hands and knees to follow them because they're really just tunnels with brambles laced over head to a height of 8-10 feet.. You think you're getting through the dense parts without serious machete work or a bulldozer you're nuts. Much of it is so thick a good beagle can't get through. I've had them get stuck, so tangled in thorns that they'd just give up and howl and I had to wade in and cut them free. The dogs never go in that shyt without coming out with ears and tails tattered and bleeding and neither would you. Any clear cut around here is going to grow into a very nearly impenetrable mass of brambles in a few years and may cover hundreds of acres.
We got an old guy here in town named No Shirt Dutton, never seen him with a shirt or a pair of shoes on, he runs a tow truck service in this area. I've seen him walk on a black top road in July, I guarantee you Blackfart wouldn't call him a pussy to his face. 🤣🤣
Real men don't wade into impenetrable bramble patches Brer Rabbit.
But if I was stupid enough to attempt it I would definitely pick Crocs over sandals.
Sissies like you stay out of it. Real hunters and their dogs go in because those patches are full of game.
What kind of game are after right now? If I'm chasing critters I tend to dress appropriately. Same/same for kicking around the yard in spring/summer or even running to the grocer for an item or two.
Prolly be best if you wore steel toes all the time then
Yep. I hear that those brambles are bad.
They were so bad that after his class field trip to that 20 manual dairy...he gave up all his fantasies of becoming a "full time farm hand" because you wear rubber boots in the milking parlor.

Oh, I go into your run of the mill bramble patches, it's the impenetrable ones I avoid.
I bet you do sonny. If you ever get up the nerve to go into a thick one, leave your sissy boy suburbanite footwear and shorts at home and put on some bramble proof clothing and boots.

Hold into the bramble!
What part of my yard is surrounded by brambles and multiflora rose was it that you missed ? You think I stay indoors, on pavement or in the yard all day and don't do any work ? Damn, you are stupid.

Wait a minute Billy Bob.
Your Beagle gets so tangled up you have to rescue him (possible).
Next, you post how You go through the worst of them. Quit digging.
You done went way past making an ass of yourself.
You are acting like a berry patch is the worst thing possible.
You obviously know nothing of the brushy stuff in the southwest. Or, just how damn thick it gets in the south, along with thorns, spiders, snakes...
I don't know your part of NY as a woodsman, but I'll trade you blackberries For a Greenbriar Hell any day.
PS.
You are so fixated on boots.
I don't notice crocs/sandals/flip flops. What does get my immediate attention is some prissy little boy/bitch wearing $300+ Heritage style "work" boots with no scuff, no dirt on them.
Kinda like Blackshart. Trying to make a statement.
I guess someone in NY has never seen or heard of a tangled mess of ceanothus, Himalaya berry, poison oak, and pampas grass (and maybe a bear or rattler) in a Western clearcut while trying to get to a stream while working for the timber company?
Or maybe a locust thicket when elk hunting in AZ? How about wait a minute bushes and cholla cactus when the quail just happens to fall in it after being shot in the desert? Multiflora rose, wild cherry, Himalaya berry again, and poison ivy when hunting quail, pheasant and chukar in the Snake River canyon.?
Nope, the only folks that know about these things live in Upstate NY.
I tend to avoid them when in my house shorts and barefoot.
But, I'm smart enough to know I don't need boots and long pants to go to town for the milk.

Nope, the only folks that know about these things live in Upstate NY.
I tend to avoid them when in my house shorts and barefoot.
But, I'm smart enough to know I don't need boots and long pants to go to town for the milk.
You know how an Australian or a Kiwi would dress to roam around New York State?
Aside from a woolie singlet and shorts?
They may just have to put socks on before their Jandals.
Real men don't wade into impenetrable bramble patches Brer Rabbit.
But if I was stupid enough to attempt it I would definitely pick Crocs over sandals.
Sissies like you stay out of it. Real hunters and their dogs go in because those patches are full of game.
Wait a minute Billy Bob.
Your Beagle gets so tangled up you have to rescue him (possible).
Next, you post how You go through the worst of them. Quit digging.
You done went way past making an ass of yourself.
You are acting like a berry patch is the worst thing possible.
You obviously know nothing of the brushy stuff in the southwest. Or, just how damn thick it gets in the south, along with thorns, spiders, snakes...
I don't know your part of NY as a woodsman, but I'll trade you blackberries For a Greenbriar Hell any day.
PS.
You are so fixated on boots.
I don't notice crocs/sandals/flip flops. What does get my immediate attention is some prissy little boy/bitch wearing $300+ Heritage style "work" boots with no scuff, no dirt on them.
Kinda like Blackshart. Trying to make a statement.
Dillonbuck you overly verbose fat little bitch, just STFU. You don't have a clue what you're talking about as usual.
I guess someone in NY has never seen or heard of a tangled mess of ceanothus, Himalaya berry, poison oak, and pampas grass (and maybe a bear or rattler) in a Western clearcut while trying to get to a stream while working for the timber company?

I don't think you know a hell of a lot outside of sheep shyt in Montana. Put down the twinkies and go take a fuggin bath. I'm sure you could use one.
Do you have blackberries, thorn apple and multiflora rose out there ? I don't recall seeing any in Montana, Idaho or Washington when I was out there. They grow around the perimeter of my yard and there's a couple acre patch of blackberries and multiflora rose out back between the yard and the woods.
Not in my yard and not those species except for the rose in places.
But, I've lived in so many places across the US, including NW PA probably only a few hours drive from where you are, to have seen just about everything.
Including having grown up and fooled around in, hunted and hiked in, crawled through, over and around chaparral. One place was so thick the 5 or 6 of us had have one guy jump up on top, the next guy jump up on him, and so on for nearly a 1/4 mile. They invented these things called chaps for horsemen to wear while going though it, and they even had coverings for their horses. Besides having to deal with the brush, there are plenty of rattlers in that country, scorpions, and whatever else lives in that crap. Chupacabras for all I know.
Quote
This word, chaparral, has been introduced into the language since our acquisition of Texas and New Mexico, where these bushes abound. It is a series of thickets, of various sizes, from one hundred yards to a mile through, with bushes and briars, all covered with thorns, and so closely entwined together as almost to prevent the passage of any thing larger than a wolf or hare. [John Russell Bartlett, "Dictionary of Americanisms," 1859]
If you have that stuff all around your yard, and are happy with it being there, by all means continue to live like that. Around here, because of fire, I have at least 40' of cleared space, beyond the lawn, cut down to 4" or less just to be safe. On the other side of our creek, the other lot we own, there is a Big Sage thicket. The easiest way through that is following the deer/cattle trails. Some of it is over 6' tall, and while not thorny, it's pretty tough and not easy to push through. But, that being said, when I walk the dogs around out there I don't change my attire, I just follow the paths.
Montana, Idaho, and Washington have some places a man wouldn't want to walk through by choice too. I've seen them personally.

Yep, tender as you've seen the photographic evidence of. Sandals at 25F with snow on the ground. Rawhide soled moccasins for hunting at 7k'. Walking barefoot on pavement at temps in the 90's.
Wanna come race on my gravel driveway, just a short one, from the porch the 50' or so to the shop? Barefoot? We'll see who has tender feet.
Aces, you might try some slides instead of the "thongs" as we used to call them (that word has a newer meaning for sure)
I'd love moving to Hawai'i if we could afford it. Go do business in shorts, a Hawai'ian shirt, and a pair of flip flops. No need for suits and ties.
VD….(I don’t like that abbreviation 😁)….Valsdad, I am most definitely a child of the wet PNW. I like cool weather, rain and days that never get above 75*. I hate not wearing my merino wool socks with my boots or Romeos, I absolutely detest wearing shorts and flip flops and slides are barbaric and I miss my Xtra-Tufs. I wear my Wranglers, boots and merino wool everywhere INCLUDING Hawaii. It used to drive my wife nuts but I’m not comfortable being “over-exposed”. 😂. I spent my life on swim teams, as a lifeguard and rescue diver so I should be more accustomed to wearing beachwear but it was always just a uniform for work while jeans and flannel were for fun. I wish I could transition easier but at 51 I quit trying and embrace my preferences.
Crap, I seem to have forgotten the Devils Club in SE AK.
Now there's some fun stuff.
My tender feet loved Juneau, sandals and barefoot 8 months a year. In AK.
It looks pretty clear of all that shyt you mentioned around your yard. Mine isn't and there's rarely a day I stay in the yard/around the house unless I'm sick. After taking the dogs for a walk this morning, I changed the tires on my trailer { old tires off rims, new tires on rims} brought out two loads of wood and have been splitting/stacking off and on all day. A pretty typical day and there may be some fishing, hunting or shooting on the menu before it's over. None of that takes place in the house or yard and I don't care to be changing shoes every time I turn around

Another Blackfart is the ultimate badass thread. Lol
I didn’t grow up going barefoot and other than my beach lifeguard years I never went barefoot. I readily admit that I probably am the biggest tenderfoot of anyone. I don’t have bare feet in the house either because carpeting can get rough, hardwood floors are about all my feet can take. 😂

My lawn is about an acre and a half Geno. It's nice green grass, I keep it well maintained and it's way more than 40 feet to the edge where the brush and brambles grow so no danger from fire. You just ain't leaving the yard except off the front along the road without going through brush/thorns unless on the four wheeler trail that goes into the woods. I have no intention of ever clearing those blackberries out because they are good producers and my wife uses them for pies and blackberry jam every summer.

It's called living in the country with a country lifestyle dumbass. I don't live in town or a posh suburban community. I live on a country road in the woods and burn wood for heat during the long winters so spend a good bit of time putting it up over the summers. I also live here so that I have hunting, shooting and fishing close by year round and can partake of it often.

So, why the F*ck are you wearing boots 24/7/365 then?
Hold into the bramble!
What part of my yard is surrounded by brambles and multiflora rose was it that you missed ? You think I stay indoors, on pavement or in the yard all day and don't do any work ? Damn, you are stupid.
So this is a thread about the best footwear for your yard?

All my best to you my friend.
Yikes, Aces.
I grew up in a place where it was regularly 70F on Christmas day, 300+ days of sun a year, shorts and a t shirt year round. For a while in my early 20s, up to 25-27 or so, I played the tough guy, Levis, boots, denim jackets, never go in shorts unless going to the swimmin' hole or beach. Then I realized when it was 90F+ I kinda liked feeling comfortable. Still had the old gear (still own too many pairs of boots that don't get enough use as I have favorites. I should put some on the classified section) but only wore it in what served for "winter" down there.
I get grumpy after too many cloudy days in a row, had to have a full spectrum light beaming on my at work when I was in SE. Especially after the fall equinox and before the spring one.
Too each their own, which I think was the whole point of this exercise. Except some question folks' manliness based on their footwear. I say wear what you want, just don't tell me what I have to wear.
That being said...........................I still don't trust folks in a suit and tie. Especially those that wear them but don't like to.....................I think those guys are well on their way to being a politician..................or maybe worse, a used car salesman or real estate agent.
Enjoy that wet weather up there. We may get some thunderstorms, which are OK by me as they usually clear up by the next day. They do their business and are done with it.

We could hear how it's possible to become morbidly obese while working your ass off all day but you don't seem very open to it.

You'd have to have a dam big well to have an Acre and a half lawn here. Having lived close enough to you to know that folks there think two weeks without a rainshower is a "drought", I've seen folks with those kind of yards. Told my buddy at work back there if I had as much grass as he did, I'd have to get a cow, because I ain't spending that much time on a mower every week.
While clear of nasty bushes around here, walking wouldn't be pleasant for a barefoot tenderfoot. There's plenty of volcanic rock that comes up every winter with the frost heaving, every weed I whack leaves a sharp little stem, there's the bur buttercup and other spiky weeds (which we do our best to control, not only for me but for the dogs, wood splinters in the back from the firewood prep, and always the possibility of a rattler.
If I had a blackberry thicket, like you I'd be letting it grow as we love the berries too.

LOL. I like mowing the lawn. I find it relaxing. Usually have to mow it every 5 days this time of the year it grows so fast. Takes about an hour and a half on the tractor. My wife likes mowing too so I have to fight with her over who gets to do it this week. I wish we'd go even one week without rain so the mud puddles in my driveway that have been there the last two months would dry up.
Real men don't wade into impenetrable bramble patches Brer Rabbit.
But if I was stupid enough to attempt it I would definitely pick Crocs over sandals.
Sissies like you stay out of it. Real hunters and their dogs go in because those patches are full of game.
Wait a minute Billy Bob.

I don't notice crocs/sandals/flip flops. What does get my immediate attention is some prissy little boy/bitch wearing $300+ Heritage style "work" boots with no scuff, no dirt on them.
Kinda like Blackshart. Trying to make a statement.
Dillonbuck you overly verbose fat little bitch, just STFU. You don't have a clue what you're talking about as usual.
Now wait a darn minute BBA. You told how your 13"tall dog can't get through the braids, But you go through it.
I don't know nothing about that. You told the story you stupid insecure little twitt.
Through around the fat comments. Wow, that's solid 2nd grade verbal abuse. A retarded gunsmith riding government checks should be able to do better than that.
Oh, Unemployment.
Forget who you said never paid what your entitlement was.
Do you understand insurance at all?
It's shared risk. Everyone puts money in. Payouts come from everyone's money in the pool. Everyone paid so you can draw. They have to pay higher amounts if more is paid out.
There are occasional furloughs for us at work. I draw UC occasionally, from an account my employer and myself(deduction line on my check) pay into. But it's not just that money.
If I rode it like you did, it would amount to almost $15k for the 6 months one could get. Neither our company nor myself pay anywhere near that much in the 6 quarters it takes to have a setup like that.
The extra comes from companies and individuals that pay but never pull any out. Exactly the opposite of what you state.
Kinda thinking that I don't know much. Only one thing.

You, are a liar.
Rode it like I did ? I was on it for two months after we were shut down by mandate you stupid fuuck. As to the brambles, ever heard of briar proof clothing and bulling your way through ? I also routinely carried pruning shears to cut brambles when necessary you mouthy little bitch.
You shouldn't come around here throwing insults and profanity at people if you are such a weak little man.
Grab your chaps, boot up, might need a Stetson at this point. Oh, yeah, some Lumberjack type flannel too.
You gonna need lots of "Manly" clothes to feel good about yourself.
Why so sensitive about the UC?
A grown ass man worked like he should, no big deal if he utilizes it the way it was intended, if needed. And not because he lost the job through bad actions.
But again, insecurity.
At this point, it's becoming interesting.
Why an old fart with so much angst.
Most I know at retirement DGAF what people think. Especially little fat, no nothing, bitches!
Why do I trigger you so? Heck, you are the all knowing and IDGAS what you think.
Am in awe of your brush busting prowess. We just toss rocks or branches in if we want to push it out. Or, follow the deer trails through. They are usually a bit more than a foot high here, bigger deer I guess. Get scratched up some, it sucks.
Worst is the ones broken off, and even the scratches get infected.
You're really special if you can throw rocks into a 40 acre bramble patch and scare rabbits out or follow deer trails to places they don't go.. Hell, anybody that can do that sure doesn't need a beagle. LMAO
It's obvious you're spouting off about something you don't know the first thing about.
I just don't understand how a discussion turns sour with insults... My opinion might anyoy some. I am rural Canadian, and believe in well built protective footwear. It is an essential tool for everything we do, I carry a Leatherman and a Damascus drop point knife for all functions. My trucks , my shops, barns etc have good tools for everything I do. Preparing for everything I do, my way of being self sufficient. I can fix 99/100 of things that need fixing in my life. It is a lifelong pursuit and essential for this way of being. Our type don't understand those who don't stick to the creed. Yup, stay strong, live vigorously , work physically hard, stay sharp . From my point of view, sandles short pants, no hat, no provisions to be self sufficient see this as the opposite of what we do. Yes, and a block of wood will break your foot, leather gloves protect your hands...good boots will make your posture straighter, imo. I have put a nail through sole of good boot. Would you outfit your truck with , well worn, balding , weather checked tires? Probably not. God Bless you all, folks

It is an essential tool for everything we do, I carry a Leatherman and a Damascus drop point knife for all functions. My trucks , my shops, barns etc have good tools for everything I do. Preparing for everything I do, my way of being self sufficient. I can fix 99/100 of things that need fixing in my life. It is a lifelong pursuit and essential for this way of being. Our type don't understand those who don't stick to the creed. Yup, stay strong, live vigorously , work physically hard, stay sharp . From my point of view, sandles short pants, no hat, no provisions to be self sufficient see this as the opposite of what we do. Yes, and a block of wood will break your foot, leather gloves protect your hands...good boots will make your posture straighter, imo. I have put a nail through sole of good boot. Would you outfit your truck with , well worn, balding , weather checked tires? Probably not. God Bless you all, folks

Yeah, people can have insecurities, take out the fashion nonsense and I think my comments explain quite alot . Nothing explains fashion to me. The only spit polish boots are in the military, and is good policy. It teaches discipline.My little old point of view.
There is a dandelion out in the yard this morning.
I better get my color coordinated dandelion proof suit in and my steel toes and go kick it!
Exactly, before it goes to seed, but I see your are a rebel. If your are land and have livestock, you will go out and see something that needs attention, maybe the cows are out, or one is sick, etc. I suggest you get right on that dandelion, or your downwind neighbors will be in the game. I am just trying to envision your suit? I wonder if you can get that pattern in overalls, Jim? Cheers

So everybody is a puss[according to one poster] that doesn't subscribe to the above. The problem that I see is that not everyone lives this life 24/7[I know-it's crazy]. I don't really need heavy cordura type brush buster pants & jacket, lineman gloves, steel toe work boots or hunting boots, wool socks, heavy weight flannel shirt, Filson hat etc, etc TO GO WORK IN MY OFFICE NOR TO MOW MY YARD At the moment[to the chagrin of some I'm sure] while at my desk I'm wearing camo shorts, Sketcher slip ons, T-shirt and basic ball cap. Should I head home and decide to cut firewood or bush-hog a field, clear some brush I'll make the appropriate change to my attire. It REALLY is that simple.

If I don't kick it...the Hutterite kids will gather it up and make wine!
Or the pony tail guy from California will make a salad.

Dogs are a whole different subject. We should listen to Blackie on that, no doubt he has more experience kicking dogs than anybody else here.
I reckon a little old sandal wearing pansy would just let another dog attack his and then pay the vet bills from the ensuing fight. Or just shoot the other dog because his effeminate footwear was inadequate to stop it.

You don't do any of that manly stuff outside of your vivid imagination and pretend.. I'm frankly surprised you aren't wearing high heels and a floral pattern skirt.

Hey, Mr Dumbfuk: I've posted pics, you on the other hand........
Guess that schidt happens when one is out walking Foo-Foo?
Do you paint it's toe-nails? Or does it wear boots 24/7 too?
It's not just the dog, it's the accoutrements. You can't afford steel toes if you're constantly shelling out for new rhinestone-encrusted collars and booties for fi-fi.

Actually Fi Fi's name is Hunter. Hunter is a Jack Russel Terrier and wanted a piece of that dog. Unfortunately the other dog was 4 times his size so I held him back and thought it appropriate to stop the fight before it started. Hunter no doubt has more guts and kills more critters than you or Retardford ever did in your wildest fits of imagination and pretend and wouldn't be caught dead wearing painted nails or sandals. LOL
It is pretty funny to see your need for a big studly dog to soothe your well founded insecurities come out into the open though.

LOL, from the guy who has to wear steel-toed boots everywhere.
That's why I posted it dummy. It's just dripping with irony when you twats think you need a big dog after you've accused me of being insecure for wearing boots. LMAO ......You twats are dummer than dog shyt and blind as a bat.
I don't need a dog to protect me, though I can understand why a desk bound, sandal clad old hippie might. LMAO
Been stacking firewood most of the day and just got done sharpening the chain saw. You may have heard of such things at some point. It's commonly thought of as "manly work". Something you know little about but do occasionally see yourself doing with your imagination and pretend. LOL

Candyassed Lads have Candyassed dogs.
Blackies itty bitty doggie is easier to punt.
Conratd would love to be able to punt something but it's all he can do to waddle his fat ass across the floor. LOL
All you ever did was wait for your wife to bring home the money.
You are a washed up do nothing trying waaaay to hard to be "manly".
None of my wives ever worked outside the home until after the kids were grown and on their own. But you keep guessing and making up stories if it makes you feel better. It's what you've always been best at besides eating and posting on the internet. LOL

[quote=mirage243]Jack Russell ?????? Lmfao, what a manly dog. 🤣🤣🤣
A sandal wearer has no idea what manly is. Have you had your estrogen levels tested lately ?
You?
Mr. Fashion?
That's precious.
Take a bath sometime this month conrad. You'll feel better and think more clearly once you get the stink offa ya. Get somebody to help who can wash deep down into those folds and get that funk out too. No telling what could be growing down in there by now but I'm sure it ain't good. LOL

Since the warm weather is here in NE Ohio, I've started wearing an older pair of sandals to try to keep cool. The bad thing is this pair of sandals will need replaced soon. I've never had a pair of Croc's, so my question would be should I buy a new pair of sandals or Croc's? I'm looking at them as a pair of around the house type of cooler work shoe in the warmer weather. Which would be best in your opinion? Are there any sturdy made sandals ( ie - what brand )? Could any of you Croc/sandal wearers help me decide?
Ain't a goddam one of you pussies got enough balls to fight on your own. Alphas my ass. Beta material one and all.
He proclaimed in a loud New yawk accent. Stop being such a curmudgeon Blacky.
Upstate people don't have a New York accent. Only downstate, New York City and Long Island.
Is Buffalo not upstate? My neighbor from Buff has quite the accent.
Can't say for sure. Never been to Buffalo. He's probably a migrant from downstate or maybe his parents were and he caught it from them. They never seem able to shake that accent.
