Monday, September 12, 2005

Sunday

Due to aging body, stable Durango boots again, black Wranglers, Wrangler brown/black/khaki check shirt, black T and pouch briefs, Dickies steel toe socks.

Sunday, September 11, 2005

Not So Straight on Saturday

Durango cowboy work boots, Carhartt brown duck dungarees, Carhartt navy work shirt, Cabelas logo T, black pouch briefs, Dickies steel toe socks.

Slow on the uptake: couldn't figure out why the slim guy around my age didn't go straight for his car with his shopping cart but instead took the long route around me standing in an almost empty parking lot. And why he took the empty shopping cart back to the store the same way.

Saturday, September 10, 2005

Friday

Rocky boots last worn at the end of August, black Levi's 501's, purply small check shirt, white T, black briefs, black work socks.

Friday, September 09, 2005

Thursday

Bates military boots, non-flattering navy Dockers, dark blue medium check shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, black & gray work socks.

Nice crotch views.

Thursday, September 08, 2005

Wednesday Weather Good

Carolina loggers, black Carhartt jeans, blue small check shirt, white T, black briefs, black work socks.

Wednesday, September 07, 2005

Tuesday: 2 Days Packed in 1

Bates zips, black pleated Farahs, thin blue striped shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, Dickies work socks.

You know it's bad when you think guys in 19th cent. photos are winking at you.

Tuesday, September 06, 2005

Weather Perfect Monday

Used and abused Western Chiefs, Dickies duck dungarees, black Carhartt T, black knit boxers, Carhartt logo socks.

Another summer has passed. Time to put away the white pants.

Monday, September 05, 2005

Fair at the Fair on Sunday

Black Nocona boots, tight stonewashed blue Wrangler's, brick red Carhartt T, Carhartt logo socks. Really tight short boxer briefs from the bottom of my underwear drawer. Oh, and Resistol cowboy hat.

There were a few other guys at the fair in cowboy boots. But the one rear sight I will not forget made me very glad I was wearing tight jeans and underwear. Let me know if you want to know more.

Sunday, September 04, 2005

So Fair on Saturday

Lucchese boots, black Wrangler's, black Carhartt T, gray pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toe socks.

Cowboy boots at the farm stand.

Saturday, September 03, 2005

Friday, Friday

Carolina loggers, Carhartt blue jeans, tan shirt, Cabela's logo T underneath, black Jockey pouch briefs, black work socks.

Weather wasn't all that bad, and the jeans were very good.

Thursday, September 01, 2005

Thursday, Thursday

Bates zipper boots (I need to get a new pair, and I think they're now part of the Rocky line), black pain front Farah pants (ok, feeling the weight gain because of eating out during vacation), wide medium blue striped shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, the usual Dickies socks.

Out and about today, but, frankly, my pants were tighter than any jeans I saw. And, BTW, yesterday's dad was not so bad.

Storm Remnants on Wednesday

Bates military boots, black Carhartt jeans, purply small check shirt, white T, black Jockey pouch briefs, the usual socks.

Some college towns have a "moving day;" we have a "moving week." And, now, I'm older than some of the dads helping their graduate student sons move.

Wednesday, August 31, 2005

Rainy Tuesday

Last Thursday's Rocky's, black plain front Farahs, light blue shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, Dickies steel toe socks.

Tuesday, August 30, 2005

Muggy Monday

Bates zips, black pleated Bass pants (that make me look fat and managerial), dark blue small check shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, white & gray work socks.

Monday, August 29, 2005

Better on Sunday

Decided that I didn't really appreciate the Nocona boots on Saturday so I wore them again. Stonewashed blue Wranglers, medium blue Carhartt T, black briefs, Dickies steel toe socks.

Better enough to know the boot look I got from one guy in a gay couple was envy rather than disgust.

Sunday, August 28, 2005

Sick on Saturday

Black Nocona boots, black 501's, black Carhartt T, gray pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toe socks.

Saturday, August 27, 2005

Friday

Old work boots worn July 28, black Wrangler jeans, medium striped shirt, white T, gray pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toe socks.

Thursday, August 25, 2005

Is it Friday? No it's Thursday

At the last minute, I ran down to the basement to get another pair of boots to wear. First pair to match were Rocky's. Good to have a change. Black Carhartt jeans (good jeans day), medium small check navy shirt, white T, black pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toe socks.

Wasn't prepared for this one: rubber knee high boots tucked into tight jeans, harness that outlined front and rear in (generous) detail. Tan leather work gloves.

A Different Package on Wednesday

Bates zips (these boots were made for walking, and I had to do that more than usual), plain front black Farahs, dark blue small check shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, Dickies steel-toe socks.

Favorite highway guy was playing with his jackhammer. Another nice package, this time I'm just envious that my khakis don't fit that tightly. Maybe I just need to try some different brands.

Wednesday, August 24, 2005

Nothing to See on Tuesday

Chippewa loggers, black Carhartt jeans, light blue small check shirt, white T, black Jockey pouch briefs, gray & white work socks.

I was looking ...

Tuesday, August 23, 2005

Monday: Perfect Package

Bates military boots, navy pleated Dockers, medium blue striped shirt, white T, 2/(x) black boxer briefs, Dickies steel-toe socks.

Saw a perfect package from the rear: jeans & T fit tight, white hard hat, and tan leather work gloves hanging from the left back pocket (is this a new hanky code?). Oh, and not bad from the front either. And he was my height, too!

Monday, August 22, 2005

Allergic to Sunday?

Black Nocona boots, navy blue Carhartt T, Carhartt blue jeans, black briefs, white work socks.

Due to summer allergies and the medication for it, I could barely see my own boots.

Sunday, August 21, 2005

Cool & Rainy on Saturday

Durango cowboy work boots, black Carhartt jeans & T, black briefs, black socks. Cool enough to put on blue plaid Carhartt shirt.

Not a good day for boots or jeans, but it was a good facial hair day.

Saturday, August 20, 2005

Friday

Bates zipper boots, 501 blue jeans, tan shirt, white T, white pouch briefs, aging white work socks.

Close up view of some harness boots.

Friday, August 19, 2005

Thirsty Thursday

Carolina loggers, black Wranglers, plain light blue shirt, white T, another pair of gray pouch briefs, gray & white work socks.

And, within 10 minutes and 3 blocks, I saw two guys who would be perfect physical matches.

Thursday, August 18, 2005

Glimpses on Wednesday

Bates military boots (went on vacation but didn't get worn), black Carhartt jeans, purply small check shirt, white T, gray pouch briefs, Carhartt logo socks.

Only glimpses ... but one was of a cowboy hat!

Wednesday, August 17, 2005

The Way Home Tuesday

Durango cowboy work boots, Carhartt blue jeans, black Carhartt T-shirt, black pouch briefs, black work socks.

Guy with big beard and long hair wearing a kilt. My first sighting of this kind.

Tuesday, August 16, 2005

Behind the Glass on Monday

Black Nocona cowboy boots again, newer, tighter black Carhartt jeans, brick red Carhartt T, black Jockey pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toe work socks.

Better weather. It's better to see boots under glass in a museum than no boots at all.

Monday, August 15, 2005

Sunday: Thunder Storms & More in the Afternoon

Black Nocona cowboy boots, regular fit Carhartt blue jeans, navy Carhartt T, black pouch briefs, Dickies work socks.

Gaydar? Still got it!

Sunday, August 14, 2005

Saturday: Humid & Funny

Bates zipper boots (nicely polished), black Carhartt jeans, medium check navy shirt, white T, black Jockey pouch briefs, black work socks.

Humid.

Saturday, August 13, 2005

Friday Resistance

Durango cowboy work boots, stonewashed Wranglers, black Carhartt T, gray pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toe socks.

Thank goodness for German tourists in tight jeans. I'll forgive their sandals and socks.

Friday, August 12, 2005

New Deal Thursday

Chippewa loggers, Carhartt blue jeans, navy Carhartt T, black pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toed socks.

Being a tourist means you have to deal with seeing a lot of shorts and sneakers. Alas.

Chippewa Posted by Picasa

Thursday, August 11, 2005

Riding Wednesday

Durango cowboy work boots, black Carhartt dungarees, Wrangler black and tan check PBA shirt, Cabelas logo T, navy knit boxers.

Torn jeans, tight jeans, a few work boots -- not bad for being in the car most of the day.

Tuesday, August 09, 2005

Another Humid Tuesday

LaCrosse work boots (not going on vacation tomorrow), black Wranglers, pin-stripe blue shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, Dickies steel-toed socks.

I don't care if I didn't see much. Tomorrow begins a real vacation.

Another Humid Monday

Bates zipper boots, navy pleated Dockers, thick medium blue striped shirt, white T, itchy boot socks.

Favorite highway construction guy gave me a nice rear view. Later in the day, I saw a construction worker with his jeans tucked into his tan work boots (a sight common in other parts of the country but rare in the northeast).

Monday, August 08, 2005

Sunday Wasn't Bad Either

Black Nocona boots, black Cinch jeans, medium blue Carhartt T, black briefs, gray & black boot socks.

At least I wasn't the only middle aged man in tight jeans at the mall.

Sunday, August 07, 2005

Ah... Saturday

Lucchese cowboy boots, brown Wrangler jeans, black Carhartt T, black pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toed socks, belt matching boots, Carhartt baseball cap matching shirt.

Finally, some sightings and looks!

Saturday, August 06, 2005

Friday: Evening Thunderstorms

Carolina loggers, Carhartt blue jeans, medium striped navy/white shirt, white T, gray pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toed work socks.

One nice smile.

Friday, August 05, 2005

Thursday

LaCrosse work boots (felt better than usual), pleated indigo Farah's, blue shirt, white T, 2/(x) black boxer briefs, Carhartt logo socks.

I couldn't stretch any sighting into something interesting.

Wednesday, August 03, 2005

Wednesday

Bates zipper boots (wore them again), new black Dockers, medium navy check shirt, white T, black boxers, Dickies steel toed work socks.

Maybe this is a stretch, but a nice rear view of a tall guy with tight jeans (nice long rear view) (nice tight) (drool) (I so wanted /needed to catch this view) (I am so starved for this view), silver hard hat, uninteresting work boots.

Comments?

Tuesday: Began with a Bang & Ended in ...

Bates zipper boots, still stiff black Carhartt jeans, small purple check shirt, white T, black briefs.

Awakened at midnight by an amazing and kind of scary thunderstorm.

Sightings: none ...

Tuesday, August 02, 2005

Monday

Bates military boots (threat of rain), old navy Dockers, medium blue small check shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, new pair of Dickies work socks.

Maybe I'm not looking hard enough ...

Monday, August 01, 2005

Sunday: Almost Cold for Summer

Durango cowboy boots, faded 501's, navy Carhartt T, black Jockey pouch briefs, black fuzzy work socks.

Who's kidding whom? The only boots I saw for more than a second were those on my own feet. The only tight jeans I saw were those on me.

Sunday, July 31, 2005

Saturday: Good Weather

Used and probably abused Western Chiefs, Carhartt navy dungarees, orange Carhartt T, black knit boxers, Dickies steel-toed socks.

One good view of a killer, tall, tan pair of Timberlands.

Saturday, July 30, 2005

Gold Rush on Friday

Carolina loggers, black not-so-tight Wranglers, medium stripe shirt, white T, white pouch briefs, gray & white work socks.

A pleasant brief return of the goated guy who stares with his mouth open and the short guy with the crewcut (can't find an entry about them; should have posted since, in very different ways, their jeans fit well, and they don't wear sneakers!).

Men in mining camps came into my mind while waiting for the bus. When a thought like that comes out of no where, I know the weekend is coming.

Thursday, July 28, 2005

A 70's Thursday

LaCrosse work boots (for crappy work boots made in China, they're not bad, but they're not a favorite), black Carhartt jeans, dark blue thin check shirt, white T, black Jockey pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toed work socks.

I have no real boot sightings to report. Even the guys working on the telephone lines on the way into work are wearing sneakers. The 70's thing refers to the temperature, but I have noticed the 70's gay porn look coming back.

Pouring Sweat on Wednesday

Dug out a 20-year old pair of well-oiled 8" work boots for Wednesday. The leather is great, but the size and sole comfort level just isn't there any more. I guess my feet have changed. Nice one day experience, but they really should go to Goodwill. Thin pair of pleated black Dockers, purply thin check shirt, white T, navy knit boxers, old white work socks.

Due to a change in early afternoon routine, got lots of views (when I wiped the sweat from my eyes) of dusty work boots.

Tuesday, July 26, 2005

Hot Again on Tuesday

Chippewa logger boots, rinsed indigo 501's (see, I remembered how good they feel!), light blue check shirt, white T, black briefs, white Dickie's steel-toed socks.

"Since everything is concave or convex, everything has to do with sex.--Freud." A thought I've had since college.

Another Monday

Bates military boots (note to self: they need a shine and I need to look through my boots to find another pair to rotate during the rest of the summer), old Bass pleated navy pants (note to self: they need to go to Goodwill), thick stripe shirt, white T (note to self: you need some new ones), black boxer briefs, gray and white thin work socks.

Another note to self: when obsessed with pie charts, think about boots.

Monday, July 25, 2005

Sunday: Wonderful Weather

Nocona cowboy boots, blue/black Carhartt duck dungarees, navy Carhartt T, black pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toe work socks.

Boots outnumbered sneakers on the many bikers I saw.

Sunday, July 24, 2005

Saturday: An "A" Day

Durango cowboy boots, rinsed indigo 501's (forgot how good they feel), black Carhartt T, gray pouch briefs, Dickies steel-toed socks.

Beautiful weather. Cowboy boot sightings at the farm stand and at the restaurant at dinner.

Saturday, July 23, 2005

Hot and Not: Another TGIF

Bates zips again, tight Carhartt rinsed jeans (felt real good), another tan shirt, white T, black briefs, black work socks.

Nothing to report. Sweating so much outside, I could barely see anything. At least it was less humid.

Thursday, July 21, 2005

Thursday: Just One More Day

Bates zipper boots (the cat's favorite), Bass black pleated pants (very nice but I had to keep pulling them up), medium striped shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, Carhartt belt (too big: medium is not size 34).

Were those DPW guys driving by looking at me or where they looking at the young woman behind me? The answer is obvious.

Wednesday, July 20, 2005

Better Weather on Wednesday

Chippewa logger boots, black Carhartt jeans, casual (but still buttoned down) white shirt, white T, black Jockey pouch briefs, Dickies work socks (I should be referring to these as Dickies steel toe work socks), basketweave belt.

I got to be officially brain dead half the day, and I didn't care what I was seeing. But, hooray, there was a motorcycle cop who was wearing boots up to his knees (my first such sighting since starting this blog).

Tuesday, July 19, 2005

It Was Worse (Terrible) on Tuesday

Bates zip boots, the thinnest pair of pants I could find (Farah navy plain fronts), plain blue shirt, white T, white briefs, black work socks.

Weather like hell -- great conversation but very uncomfortable. It's amazing how normally breathable cotton and leather starts feeling like 70's polyester clothing, rubber belts, and nylon underwear.

And, why am I looking at mature cement-mixing truck drivers differently?

What are other men wearing (or thinking about not wearing)?

Miserably Muggy Monday

Bates military boots, plain front navy Farah pants, thin striped shirt, white T, the thinnest, loosest boxer briefs I could find, Carhartt logo socks.

I was about to write off the day as a complete loss, when, waiting for the bus to go home, a guy in a cement mixing truck made me shyly smile.

Monday, July 18, 2005

Sunday (More Instant Ancestors)

Nocona boots, rinsed Wranglers, navy Carhartt two pocket work shirt, Cabelas logo T, black Jockey pouch briefs, black work socks.

Standing on the corner, watching all the bikers with engineers and harness boots drive by.

What were other men wearing?

Sunday, July 17, 2005

Another Saturday

Durango boots, black Carhartt dungarees, red Carharrt T, knit boxers, Dickies work socks.

Motorcycle cop with boots almost knee-high.

Friday, July 15, 2005

Why Wasn't This an Early Friday?

LaCrosse work boots (sorry no individual pic posted yet), I-thought-these were-traditional-fit Carhartt jeans (maybe relaxed? my butt is sagging), tan Dockers shirt, white T, black briefs, Dickies (unless posted differently, they are their steel toe line, my current favorite).

Good beginning: guy in double-front Carharrt duck dungarees with big thighs. Nice morning break: lots of construction guys along with others on my break. Good ending: goated bus driver.

Humid Thursday

Bates zips, blue pleated pants, plain blue shirt, white T, boxer briefs, Dickies socks.

A busy day but did have a few minutes to drift into the past because of something like this.

Did You Hump Wednesday?

Chip logger boots, black relaxed fit Carhartt jeans (gotta love a job who thinks that is "dress casual"), purple thin check shirt, white T, black knit boxers, fuzzy blue work socks.

It started fairly well -- at my favorite construction site the T color was green today. It ended fairly well, too, although part of what it was the sight of "I'm not going to look like that when I'm his age" and then realizing I was older. The middle was "ok I know you're straight, but we are really grooving on other things."

Can I Remember Tuesday?

Bates military (and it wasn't raining), black pleated Farahs, dark medium stripe shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, gray/white work socks.

Nothing tremendously memorable. Gotta change that!

Monday, July 11, 2005

Triple Crown on Monday

Bates zipper boots, plain front black Farah pants (have the same effect depending on where my belt is as these pants), dark blue small check shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, black fuzzy work socks.

Triple crown (at least for today):
  • Carhartt duck bibs & yellow T on a guy my age and size
  • painter's pants that were far too tight and far too thin on a late 30's guy who I don't think knew he was showing his stuff
  • very, very tight Levis on another guy my age and size (I am jealous)

Nocona boots Posted by Picasa

Milling Around on Sunday

Black Nocona boots, stonewashed Wranglers, medium blue Carhartt T, black briefs, Carhartt logo socks.

Positive: 'Stache after 'stache after goat' after stubble, lots of facial hair on men of all ages.

But: Did any other guys wear boots on Sunday?

Saturday, July 09, 2005

Saturday

Chip loggers, dark brown duck Carhartt dungarees, Cinch blue/brown/black check shirt, Cabela's logo T, old Jockey briefs, black work socks.

If I had to pick one, would it be the guy in the mini-van dressed like biker or the cute young-un with the two dogs?

Soggy & Saggy Friday

Carolina loggers, black regular fit Carhartt jeans (kind of new and still a little stiff), Carhartt tan and blue paid shirt, black Carhartt T, gray Musingwear pouch briefs, black and gray work socks.

AM: Orange T's on construction workers and lime-yellow raincoats on cops brightened the gray day.

PM: Saggy jeans, pants, and shorts. I guess I didn't get the memo about Friday's dress code. Did you?

Friday, July 08, 2005

Cool and Gray on Thursday

Bates zips, black pleated Farahs, light blue thin check shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, Dickies work socks.

30 year old guy putting a metal sign on an outside wall, tight jeans & dark T, work boots. Tall and naturally muscular all over. 20 years ago I spent a lot of time regretting the fact that I was never going to look like that. Now, as he spreads his legs and lowers his back to attach the bottom of the sign, balancing himself firmly with one hand against the wall, all I could think of was that his navy blue hanky should have been in his right rear pocket instead of the left.

Lucchese (back dated)

What Weather on Wednesday!

Bates military (kept my feet nice and dry), loose fit black Carhartt jeans, purple/blue small check shirt, white T, white Jockey pouch briefs, black work socks.

Jeans and khakis soaked through because of the rain created some interesting sights ...

Wednesday, July 06, 2005


What I should have been wearing today (Wed., July 6, 2005) Posted by Picasa

Tuesday, July 05, 2005

Long Weekend: Tuesday is a Monday?

Bates zips, dark blue Farahs (note to self:do they have a zipper problem?), dark blue tight check shirt, white T, black Musingwear pouch briefs (OMG I didn't wear boxer briefs to work!), black work socks.

The most intellectual thing I did today: identify a guy's Carhartt jeans from the front -- not the label on the back. Not that I wouldn't have been interested in seeing his back ...

Monday, July 04, 2005

Happy 4th to You!

RED Carhartt T, WHITE Dockers shirt and matching Dickies socks, BLUE 501 jeans, Black Durango work boots with matching Jockey pouch briefs. I tried to do "made in the USA," and then tried to do "made in NAFTA," but it just didn't work.

Thanks to a long stop light got a good view of a pair of engineers on a biker.

Perfect Weather on Sunday

The recently acquired Lucchese boots (took a bit of nerve to wear them, but I did), chocolate-color Wranglers, tan Carhartt short sleeve shirt, Carhartt logo T, black Musingwear pouch briefs, Dickies socks.

A few quick sightings of some cowboy boots and engineers; mostly, alas, sneakers and sandals.

Sunday, July 03, 2005

Take Me Out on Saturday

Chip loggers, black Wranglers, black/blue/white plaid Carhartt shirt, gray T, teal knit boxers, Dickies socks.

Good day for facial hair sightings of all kinds; bad day for boots. Nice to see a guy at dinner who had them both and who is making me re-think my usual loose T policy.

Saturday, July 02, 2005

Friday Before a Long Weekend

Carolina loggers, regular fit Carhartt jeans, tan shirt, white T, black briefs, Dickies socks.

It was a good jeans day -- not jeans on other men but jeans on me. I really can't judge how I looked. But how they felt was wonderful. They grabbed me by the hips and helped me stand and walk with confidence. And, when my shirt, T, and briefs were fighting with each other, they stayed appropriately steady and strong, with an occasional soft caress when I needed it.

This is probably the strangest thing I've written so far and the most ungrammatical. Thank goodness the weather is better and it's a long weekend.

Friday, July 01, 2005

Thursday: The Last Day in this Pattern of Humidity?

Bates zips, plain front well-fitting black pants, medium striped shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, cheap work socks.

Had several opportunities for sightings on the way into work. The best was the guy in the orange T holding a large rebar.

Thursday, June 30, 2005

Almost False Rain Threat on Wednesday

Bates military again (maybe it really will rain for more than a few minutes if I don't wear waterproof boots like these), odd-fitting black plain front Farah pants, thick striped shirt, white T, gray boxer briefs, Dickies work socks.

Had a very nice look/stare at the front of the Carhartt jeans I saw on Monday.

Wednesday, June 29, 2005

False Storm Threat Tuesday

Bates military, kind of worn navy pleated Dockers, plain blue shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, white work socks.

Glimpse of an arborist wearing bibs high in a bucket cutting a tree limb.

Tuesday, June 28, 2005

Monday Went Quickly: Thank Goodness!

Bates zips, Bass black pleated pants, dark navy thick stripe shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, black work socks.

Only a quick view (but nice) of the construction site, only a quick nice view of the back of some Carhartt jeans, only a quick nice view of my bus driver's goatee. Better quick than none at all.

Monday, June 27, 2005

Scorching Sunday

Chip loggers, Carhartt navy duck dungarees, medium blue Carhartt T, red knit boxers, Dickies work socks.

Another day confined largely to private air-conditioned space, so not a lot of chance to get a good look at boots, etc. I wonder what other men were wearing ...

Sunday, June 26, 2005

Highest Temperature in 3 Years on Saturday

Durango cowboy work boots, stonewashed Wrangler's, black Carhartt T, gray Musingwear pouch briefs, Dickies work socks.

Surprised and happy to see a number of men in jeans and work boots at the supermarket (expected more shorts and sandals). Didn't get many chances to view, however. What were other men wearing?

Saturday, June 25, 2005

Is It Friday Yet?

Bates military, black pleated Farah's, medium striped shirt, white T, 2/(x) black boxer briefs, black work socks.

Some of the oddest shoes I've ever seen seem to be appearing on the bus.

Friday, June 24, 2005

Back to Work: When Thursday Feels Like Monday

Bates zips, navy pleated Farahs, light blue shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, a different kind of Dickies work socks (not as thick as my usual).

Can't remember much.

Thursday, June 23, 2005

A Mere 350 Miles on Wednesday

Western Chiefs, regular fit Carhartt jeans, red Carhartt T, navy knit boxer briefs, Dickies work socks.

Nice welcome home seeing a local motorcycle officer directing traffic with boots almost knee high.

Wednesday, June 22, 2005

Only 450 Miles on Tuesday

New Lucchese boots again (probably won't re-appear for a while), loose fit stonewashed Cinch jeans, short sleeve black plaid Carhartt shirt (no T), black jockey pouch briefs, gray boot socks.

Sighted only one other pair of cowboy boots. Slow down for road construction just not slow enough to check out the rubber overboots (it wasn't muddy so don't know why they had them on).

Tuesday, June 21, 2005

650 Miles on Monday

Durango cowboy work boots, stonewashed Wrangler's, medium blue Carhartt T, old FTL tightie whities, Carhartt white work socks.

Somewhat disappointing day for boot sightings. Then again, a quick trip to a boot store after lunch had a young sales guy recognize my boots. Just couldn't see much of his.

Sunday, June 19, 2005

600 Miles on Sunday

New Lucchese boots, dark brown Wrangler's, black Carhartt T, black Musingwear pouch briefs, Dickie's work socks. Belt matching the boots. But I am losing my Wrangler butt and gaining a Wrangler gut!

Young slim guy with boots and cowboy hat at lunch. 30's big guy with gray Wranglers which looked good fore and aft, cowboy boots and hat, in the afternoon. Guy with holes in his jeans and work boots at dinner.

Long Saturday

Another two-parter: Bates military in both parts.

Pre-5:30 pm: Black Wranglers, check shirt, white T, black boxer briefs, Dickie's work socks.

Post-5:30 pm: Black plain front Farah's, new blue/brown/black check shirt, black T, black work socks.

The times are approximate; somewhere around that time I took a shower.
