Brad Bennett of Well Spent Makes a Case for Plain-Toe Boots (and Shares His 6 Top Pairs): The Daily Details: Blog. Fashion I've always been a big proponent of having different boots for different situations. Duck boots for rain and snow. Hiking boots for outdoor activities.

How Microsoft's Kinect Could Replace Your Tailor (No Pins Required) Raj Sareen is the CEO of Styku, a “virtual fitting room” whose offices I visited over a year ago (see: “The Avatar’s New Clothes”). Styku has since pivoted to focus its body-scanning efforts on the Kinect, and was recently named one of the first batch of startups in Microsoft’s Kinect Accelerator program. I called up Sareen to learn how Styku has progressed, and whether it still struggled with what Sareen’s father had told me was one of the most vexing problems in clothing: how to fit the many shapes and sizes of the breast.

Objects of Affection: Thorogood for Epaulet No. 685 Boots in Horsehide « Black and Tanned NY. October 14, 2010 by Jonathan I was curious about these since I got a chance to see a sneak peek in store a while back. I’ve been officially fiending for them since they dropped a couple of weeks ago and abstract curiosity about a future release rapidly mutated into a very real desire to “Own! Own now!” Thorogood‘s No. 685 boot is a plain-toed, 7-eyelet work boot that was originally sold as a “Job-Fitted Work Shoe for Farm Wear” back when it was introduced in the 1950′s.
Revived by Brooklyn’s Epaulet for Fall 2010, 144 pairs were produced exclusively for the shop. Though the boots’ true workwear lineage probably won’t be fully realized by the many folks like me who are more likely to wear these on the sidewalk than the fields, the handsome ruggedness that springs from their utilitarian origins certainly ain’t nothing to sneeze at. Luckily, “rugged” doesn’t translate to “clunky” here. These would look great paired with jeans, a heavyweight chino, or gray tweed trousers. —Jonathan Like this: Horween Leather.
