Deja Vous Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I bought a pair of oak tree boots a few years back. I have a few western boots like Olathe, Tony,s, Justins.. I seem to wear my moccasins the most and I have earth walker I will weart this winter.. but the oak tree boots are so thin in the sole that I can't wear them on the rocks. They are not very roomy so I can not wear insoles in them. I hope to take them to a good shoe repair person to get new soles added to the bottom to absorb some of the impact. They are kinda girllee so I have not worn them much cuz they hurt after a few hours of moving around, and they look silly on me.. But I might try since I spent the bucks to wear them if I can fix them. Can they glue a sole on the outside bottom? I don't see a lot of room to sew one.. And yes, I know I am being a blabber fingers tonight.. burning up energy.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly Dave Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I used to only wear cowboy boots, wore them, got them resoled and wore them some more. As I got older my feet and calves got bigger to where I can't really wear them any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzly Dave Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I wear boots to shoot in, but they are very hard to get on and off, the rest of the time I wear cheap tennis shoes, I'm so bow legged and heavy they wear out quickly. I once bought a pair of high dollar walking shoes that were supposed to last for ever and everything, they wore out faster than the cheap ones.

Grizzly Dave Posted October 8, 2011 Share Posted October 8, 2011 I just looked at the schedule for GBJL, you'll get to hear Frederick Jackson Turner, I've always wanted to hear him and Big Red Sky, I hear their music is great and a number of songs are funny cowboy action oriented. Comin at Cha is my only big match this year, that should be fun and I'll get to meet Monte and Dogwoods Annie among others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comin at Cha is my only big match this year, that should be fun and I'll get to meet Monte and Dogwoods Annie among others. I have heard him before and his band and he are all very good.. and he is a very nice cowboy too. He is funny and I have this funny sort of side of me.. I love the song "I pray for you" and I plan on asking them to sing it so I hope they know it.. As for Montes and dogwoods.. I can not say enough about them.. they are good people.. and I love them both. The funny part is, Griizes.. I only talked to to Dogwoods I did not really know her.. but I did know Montes.. and the minute I talked with her I knew they were for each other.. So, I sort of made sure they met each other ..and the rest is history... I am so good at match making for other people .. lol... they are the sweetest couple.. you will love them...
