    I have a pair. Looks? I get compliments all the time in my great kilt. They feel great on my feet. But, the downside...not all that waterproof, but they dry quickly; so, even if you are caught in the rain, or otherwise get them wet...it's not really all that uncomfortable. Another downside is, on any terrain other than flat ground, your feet are going to take a beating. Eight hours in them is going to cause your feet to ache. Nothing that a few aspirin won't fix, though; or a bottle of whiskey...

    Foot problems are solved by adding a thicker sole. That I can do.

    Crack me up. Bought the helmet the moment I saw it, had to have it.

    My ancestors come from the Trotternish Peninusla of Skye...gotta have some Viking blood.

    As a MacDougall, I know I do... and as an American EuroMutt, I also have some from more direct sources. Recently, I was looking with great desire at a helmet based on the one Thor wears in Marvel comics, with the wings....

    It's each Saturday and Sunday in February and March, plus President's Day. This year it starts on Feb 5th, I think.

    BTW - Riverkilt, Red_Raven_Studios says she remembers you, too.
