man I am not much on sandals. Never have been. I either do flip flops (90%) of the time of tennis shoes for walking.


Im either rocking these, they make good flip flops





Or these on the 9 days a year that I wear long pants

Almost bought Olu Kai last year at the beach. I read about them before the beach. Browsed the inventory online and saw the great reviews

But when I laid my own eyes on them and touched the soles they were shockingly rock hard to be so well regarded.

So I bought ole trusty Reefs instead

I have not had any issues with them being too hard on bottom. Im putting a little more weight down on mine than you so maybe Im softening them up a little. LOL..

The last a while and stay comfortable . I dont like flip flops with a high heel. Just a little to keep them from being flat. The Olu Kai do great with water. I get mine wet every single day I go to the gulf. They hold up well with that. Ive got a few different pair and they will last me a few years.

It is a pain in the caboose trying to get shirts that fit me when I had to wear a tie or My Choker whites when I was in the military.

18.5 inch neck so I had to buy these excessively large shirts and had to get them taken in on the sides to be more of a tailored fit. NOT CHEAP. However, there were some good tailors on base that would hook us up. When I was growing up my mom would take the dress shirts in for me same issue with my neck size & shoulders. I stopped wearing ties and just use a sports coat down here in FL now.

Stop wearing a tie, problem solved. If you are not CEO of a company and have to wear a tie, you need to work towards a non-tie position.

Top pair of flip flops above your shoes look really nice.



Do you have the model name for it. Probably some hawaiian word that translates to lazy island gentleman


I found that model. Apparently that color is discontinued

Haven't tried those but I went out and tried on a bunch of pair of flops for my daily. Never thought I would buy a pair of Crocs but they were extremely comfortable.

88,

when I was in boot camp at fort benning I dont remember ever having any tailoring issues around my neck.

I weighed about 50 pounds lighter though. And boy could I run. Used to run 12 plus miles in ROTC before basic.

Yeah well that is a strategy and I did stop in the civilian world but you can't do that while in the military.

Dress Blues - Tie
Choker Whites - No tie but hooks that goes around your neck.
Was in a company that if you worked in the HQ you wore a tie
Gov Contractor - most days had to wear a tie when working at the COCOM. They relaxed the rules later...

Was in Sales - tie required

Now I am remote so no one gives a crap that I am in shorts & Ts or POLO for meetings

Dont worry. Someone will think your tongue and bull ring piercings are cute one day. Maybe I am wrong though

Even our CEO, the only time I see him wear a tie is if he’s on TV or it’s a photo op. Tell your job to chill out a bit and embrace a wonderful post tie life.

I don’t know what a bull ring is and I’m not going to google it. Is that the big ring that some have through the middle of their nose?

Like 88 I am not required to wear them. But I have found a taste for formal attire. It makes my wife feel better when I am all dressed up like its a real date to ber but I also know there will be couple funerals coming down the pipeline for my wife's folks.

Oh yeah. Even the name is intuitive.

That sounds good. You should get one of those long Steve Harvey suits.

I bought a couple suits already. If I buy another my wife will kill me which is ironic.

I am interested in the athletic fit suits now. They seem gimmicky so I question the durability.

I had to buy the larger shirts that fit my neck & had to have them taken in on the sides. That is the issue. Same with the chokers & Service Dress Blue jackets. The pants we bought all had to be hemmed etc....just the way it is.
