i don't understand who would be in the market for shades like that without already knowing what to expect. was that guy just browsing under accessories and literally stumbled into your listing?

[michael_kard]

I cannot stand retarded buyers. Thankfully, I've been extremely lucky so far, and everyone seems to have been satisfied. Except for that one time when some guy decided to bid on all my listings, win all items and leave me negative feedback

You literally can. Not only is the seller fucked. He then has to jump through hoops to get final valuation fees refunded and can't even leave negative feedback.

What a joke.

[michael_kard]

eBay removed the guy's feedback after a few messages, plus I think they might have banned him too. There's other ways to troll of course, but I don't want to inspire you

Hey guys,

Just bought a weird pair of Rick flared 'cargo' detroits from Anthem.

Does anyone know what fabric Rick used? It's extremely stiff and dry, with a subtle luster. The trousers can actually stand on their own lol. Feels like a cotton/woo/silk blend, maybe?

Check out a photo of my pair here

the brown ones in the photo are poly/silk I believe.

Is there any exclusive sz codes for pnp webstore or any possible discount available?

Looking at some guidi 992 derbs sz 44.

[BBSCCP]

has anybody handled both the JUICY and KALB (new version) fencing? If so, can you confirm that KALB runs smaller one size, while JUICY runs about TTS?

Plus, is there any difference in the body length / sleeve construction? I remember somebody here stated that the sleeves on the JUICY are roomier but the body on the KALB being longer?

I am 1.85 m with broad shoulders but a slim waist, hence I am trying to find out which of both would rather suit my bodytype.

Also, can someone tell me how to take care of Guidi boots?
I am thinking of the light grey ones:

What are the differences between getting taps put on and vibram sole? Can/should I put taps and vibram on the same shoe?

Should I spray the boots with water-proof leather spray?

Thanks for reading, just trying to give these boots the treatment they deserve.

Anybody know how to slow down or trap the images on the m.a+ web page. I really like the effect, but I'm risking epilepsie.

Thanks.

there are no "codes" for pnp, don't know why there would be as they are not an affiliate.

I reccomend reading this thread:Cobblers and shoecare

taps are, well, small taps placed on the heel, and "vibrams" are rubber soles that cover the heel and most of the sole. vibram is a brand name but often synonymous with rubber soles and one of the better brands. personally I put rubber soles on all of my shoes and hate tabs, the rubbers make walking more comfortable and are a must if you ever walk in snow (leather soles are deadly). but its of course up to personal preference. vibrams come in various thicknesses, I prefer thin ones as they don't change how the shoe looks and feels. whatever you do, make sure to tell the cobbler exactly what you want, ask to see the rubber soles they use to make sure they won't put some 1" chunk on the heel, and tell them not to polish or treat the shoes unless you want overly shiny shoes.

Another important thing to discuss with your cobbler if you are having protective treatment on shoes like this is not to alter the sides of the soles in any way. When they put protective rubber on the piece of rubber is generally larger than your sole and they will sand down the edge to fix their application. But with Guidi soles that come as thick pieces of suede with rough edges they will be altering the look slightly (learned this one the hard way...)
