Since you live in Red Wing country, see if they have a real factory outlet or "seconds" store.

Re: Update Update
Thanks guys... Red Wing shoes are nice. For whatever reason though, I prefer boat shoes, and they don't make any of those. Rockport... hit or miss for me. Comfortable, but some of them have worn out REALLY quickly for me. Trying to buy American made shoes this time, too... have a few leads to check out.

My findings, too - the tread wears very quicky. I used to routinely send them out for re-soling.bort wrote:Rockport... hit or miss for me. Comfortable, but some of them have worn out REALLY quickly for me

Re: Update Update
It is plumbing check time for me. I'm having my water softener checked and maybe replaced next week. The house water filter needs replacement (a quarterly task). Lastly, I'm having my personal plumbing checked today. I guess it is a good time to clean all my tubas too.

How long were you sitting on that 1,000th post?
And holy crap, I've been on this board for HOW many years? Was briefly on the old one, too.
