Last time I saw one of these was 2002. I was in a sketchy neighborhood and was walking to the gas station to buy a pack of cigs. Some crackhead was trying to sell it for $4.00. I don’t know how much crack you can get for four bucks but I do kinda regret not buying it. Good alarm clock radio. My grandparents had one in the spare room when I used to sleep over as a kid.

I used to sell tshirts. I’ve tried more brands than most. Wool & prince make the finest tshirt you can buy. Mine are going on 8 years and still no bacon neck or signs of wear.

Have you done maintenance on them?

Generally every shoe needs some work about, max, every six months with normal wear.

For our Birks they get seasonal cleaning, moisturizing, waxing, and a fresh coat of cork sealant.

All our boots, shoes, wellies, and heels get similar spa days.

Maintenance is paramount and can't be ignored. Seems that you're 1.5 years overdue.
