More than just a touch of spade sole there, friend. Fantastic looking!!
Well, when you tire of just staring at them I could probably sqeeeeze into those if I wear thin socks... :D
To the men and women of the United States armed forces, past and present: I am proud of you, grateful to you, and I salute you!
It's a tough bizness, what they do -- and they've always done it the very best way the world has ever seen.
I love leather gloves, whether for work or warmth. Living in Florida, it's pushing it even to wear them on a couple of our 'coldest' days of the year. Any chance I get though, I don them. Driving gloves are the coolest.
I simply like the look and protection and added purchase they afford...
I also noticed that the Paradise and the Holo Holo only have four front buttons. The Myrna has five. All my modern 'flowery' shirts have five, six or sometimes seven (!) front buttons.

I've got a bunch of contemporary 'flowery' shirts, but...
I'm hoping some of you with experience in vintage Hawaiian shirtdome might be able to tell me if I got a vintage Hawaiian shirt here or not. [huh]

Wore this today. I call it an 'Adventure/Travel Jacket'. If there's a real name for this type let me know.
Kind of an oddity. Gabardine, water repellent lining, belt back, bi-swing, short center vent, saddlebags, extra pockets outside and hidden ones inside in bottom back. Nice stitch work &...
