New Boots Again

She’s a hard road finding the perfect pair of streetware / active shoes, but I’m getting closer.

In a case of second verse, same as the first, I’ve taken advantage of cheap online shopping here to update my footwear.

The new ones come a little closer to respectability, have a little more padding underfoot, and are heavier – probably the same weight as heavy work socks.

They’re also more versatile colour-wise – black ‘n white goes with anything, eh Grace?

Aging Less Disgracefully – Iggy Pop gets his gear on

 

The above is Iggy Pop, performing for a US talk show audience, recently.

Note the understated suit jacket, and white shirt.  Along way from the famous 1970 image at the top of this post – blue jeans,  topless,  black boots – a signature look he sported right into the 20-teens.
