My family only buys professional stihl after a few years of using Walmart brands. Such a big difference.

Reply to Guys, ROTHY’S! They don’t have a lifetime guarantee, but I’ve had this pair 6 years and look at them! These were an absolute muddy mess before I threw them in the washer. Bonus, they are even comfortable. by mrsmeesiecks
Unfortunately they are foot coffins. If the toes can’t splay, you’re on your way to poor postural & movement habits, and possibly even bunions and more.

At the end of the first season iirc.

Right on, what was your team’s policy? Mine was three seasons and you could order one.

I got mine rowing for Purdue in 2003. It was a big deal then, and I remember it being expensive. I still wear it, not all the time, but it’s still waterproof.

Jealous of the cooking over a live wood fire. Do you have any other photos showing the whole setup?

I had a pullover varsity letter jacket thing from Boathouse. Loved that thing.

And now you are merrily feasting on the bones of your enemies, as your aunt taught you.

There’s also a really preppy company too with the name.

If it is pouring there is some bleed through, but throwing it in a tumble dry seems to recharge the goretex

You’re correct. I’m in Canada. My Boathouse is not the elite performance outerwear that is your brand in the states lol. Very confusing for 2 companies to have the exact same name

Is it still waterproof or does it bleed through? Did you have to retreat it with DWR?

I tried allbirds because rothys don’t ship to Australia anymore, and I can’t stand them!!! They are about to go to the charity store, I wore them once and they felt all slippery and weird.
Now have three pairs of rothy’s that I got second hand, they are absolutely the best shoe I’ve ever worn.

Is that an indoor fireplace? How are you pulling the coals out like that without your house getting all Smokey?
