Title: New Boots
Post by: Phishfan on December 16, 2008, 12:29:57 pm
I needed some cold weather footware since I will be traveling to see my family over Christmas (all I have are sandals, dress shoes, or my lawn work shoes). I went out last night and bought a new pair of hiking boots from Gander Mountain and have been wearing them around today. Can anyone think of anything more miserable than breaking in new boots?

Breaking in new boots made for women when you're a man that wears a size 12?

You know what they say about big shoes, right? 



Big feet.

Why are you breaking them in?  You plan on going hiking when you are there?

Break them in while you are wearing them when you need them.  Plus you don't need boots for the cold you only need them for the snow.  If there isn't snow I will be walking thru I wear sneakers in the winter.

More miserable for .....
Losing 6 games a year to the Bills,Patriots,and Jets....
Getting a 3 or 4 game series swept by the St. Louis Cardnials.....
Getting a certain part of my Anatomy stuck in my Zipper....
Could be Worse...You could Be ME!  :D

I'll stop before everyone thinks I'm a miserable negative person... :)

You must have missed that I don't have sneakers other than the lawn shoes. Boots have to be broken in eventually. If I wasn't breaking them in now, I would be eventually.

I'm just the opposite, I love New boots. I wear boots around 60-70 hours per week. Lots of support and they feel like walking on air. Its the old ones that are beat to shit that get uncomfortable after a while.

BTW........I went to that Orlando outlet mall near my hotel when I was there. I got a Kick ass deal in the Timberland store . I thought it was just gonna be some kind of a Tourist trap, but I found some sick deals there and at the Nike Closeouts.

That place is huge and it does get you deals (even though it is in the middle of tourist town). I am looking for some bibs (overalls you may call them) and a friend suggested I go to the Dickies outlet there. Does anyone else have a suggestion on where I can find denim bibs?
