Related subject: merino socks. Any recommendations? I've got some Falke ones but never got on with them, the seam always felt annoyingly positioned.
Wolsey / Morley ?It was explained some months back, that one had acquired the other, and Wolsey socks seemed to disappear, but they seem to be sold under both names now.
I never find the website(s) terribly useful and always buy mine in the shops, but I've been buying / wearing them for years when just wanting a solid colour, in wool, for reasonable money.
'Gentlemen's Outfitters' types would be the most likely outlets.

I would recommend avoiding all previously posted advice regarding achieving a high gloss finish to the toe, and consider visiting your local nail bar as a viable alternative.You should also report yourself immediately to the council thread for being in possession of a television of those dimensions

You're all just lucky I didn't have a black toenail for this one. You should also report yourself immediately to the council thread for being in possession of a television of those dimensions
I thought 32 inches was the preferred dimension for those who did not wish to appear Council

Completely off topic
I was wearing the wrong shoes for the conditions 5.5kms into a trail half marathon, downhill section along a dry watercourse. Wearing my lightweight Ons instead of my sturdier Mizuno, getting some decent rhythm going, trod on a piece of what I though was sturdy sandstone, crumbled, rolled onto my ankle. The 3 people in front of me heard the crack.
Walked the 1.6km out to the aid station. That was painful.

I always thought their boots were meant to be good. Recently spotted their other stuff and quite like the look of some of it.
I need some everyday chukka type boots that aren't smart but not too casual either.
I’ve had plenty over the years. Last time I bought from timberland directly and had to return them because they didn’t even stand up straight. I would possibly buy them again but they are not as good as they once were. Also they might be a bit passé.I need some everyday chukka type boots that aren't smart but not too casual either.
I had some timberland “earth keepers” or some such a while back and they were poor.
To be honest at the price they are probably good value.
