I know, heels are 30 bucks at a cobbler. But I like to do things myself. My best friend showed me his “favorite boots ever but they’re trashed”. I took them home with me in the promise to clean them up for him. I didnt want to attempt a new heel stack, and in hindsight I used a taller rubber so I could’ve sanded more of the heel stack down to take the wear out of the back but I’m happy how they came out. I of course didn’t take any good before pictures lol but they were folded over, dry as a bone and torn up. I even glued a thick flap back on the front of one. Just saying you can do some of this at home have fun! If I had a belt sander I could’ve got it a bit smoother but all I used a razor and a dremel.

It’s my wife’s birthday and I scored this awesome hat for her for super cheap. The seller said the owners of the hats got married in them “30 something” years ago and are both passed away, so they’re at least from the 80s. They’ve only been worn once and lived in the boxes until now. The gamblers not my style but it’s my size and it’s growing on me 😆. Just looking for any info on them anyone might have I can’t find much at all online about them! Silver belly is a 6x and wildcard is a 4x
