Nerding out...
So I love geeky type shit. What of it!
I am probably pre-ordering this Spyderco Para Military 2. I have a similar type of knife called the Caly 3 which is also shown below. It can be hard to justify a large knife for EDC and the Para 2 is a tad longer in length of blade and total length but I think its comprised features make it all the worth while. High end steel, g10 handles, flat ground blade, big lanyard hole, torx screws for serviceability and its made in the USA.
I also picked up this Quark 123 Tactical as well as a Nitecore D10 pocket clip to do my own mod. The clip will allow for a deep pocket carry of the light which I felt was missing in its design. The clip version of the light is not really designed for pocket carry.
Finally, I thought this post on Selectism was neat. Actual knife/tool carried by German troops. Sturdy locking blade, saw and etc. but also the nice rich green sets it off from the regular version.

Boots...
I am really liking these Viberg boots. They are similar to my Daytons but I really love the brown. It is interesting how the difference in color can change an outfit. The captoe is a nice detail especially with the 'brogueing' (wikipedia that shit).
I was cruising through the Hukurokujo blog and saw these Alden Indy's resoled with a vibram sole. We always perved on Indy boots and I still love the silhouette.

Finally, I love these Alden Foss Tugger boots. I have grey roughout boots from Dayton but they are pretty bulky - I have nicknamed them stompers. The first incarnation of the Foss boot was in a beautiful black leather but this go around they have done it in an 'earthy' toned reverse leather - which has a more subtly resemblance to the roughout on my Daytons.

Sticking with the Vibram trend, the dude at Oak Street Bootmakers told me the shoes I ordered should be done by end of november. This picture sold me on the shoes, in my opinion they will be extremely versatile throughout various outfits/seasons.

Dickies Mason Boots
I know... I just bought boots. I really like these though. Same idea as the Red Wing Chukka but comes in more colourways and probably at least half the price. These boots are sleek. Something you could wear rugged but dress up at the same time. The light grey ones are calling my name. Definitely a boot I'd consider in the near future.
