Do these work for 43 y/o bad backs?

 

Yes, yes they will. I thought they would feel loose not tying them, but they don't. My wife was right this time.

 

I was going to tell him the lights he wanted were probably halogen bulb housings.
One would be hard pressed to find an aftermarket taillight that wasn't LED in 2025..

 

Orthofeet has step ins also. I've been barefoot or flip flops until a couple of years ago. I need comfortable shoes now. Except beach or yard, flip flops are still good there.

 

I wanted to like these.
Seems the 11 1/2 are too small and the 12s were too big..
I've been wearing these often for the last couple of years, but they wear out quickly.

Thanks for always keeping us who missed out in the loop. And that also escalated pretty quick.

 

That's sweet, but seeing it all banged up in the last pic hurts my heart a little.

 

It's actually pretty funny in the right setting.

 

Do they come in wide size? that makes a difference with my fat, but not ugly feet.

 

Yeah, the body damage was fairly significant. Luckily the car has a full interior roll cage, so the roof wouldn't collapse any further. For a racecar like that, i'd probably just section out the whole darn roof, down the the A pillars. The driver was a bit new to offroading. He was hoping to make it to the Dakar Rally (this comming January). I think he rolled (or flopped) it over on the final "Big Dune Day". Let me tell you, the dunes in the Sonora Mexico desert are darn right scary looking. A few years ago my buddy had the "roadbook" route for the race, so we navigated the route a few days after the race to experience the terrain on our dirtbikes. I was VERY intimidated at the loooooong steep climbs!

EDIT: FYI, i own my parents 1972 datsun 240z that they bought brand new off the lot way back when.

 

These look pretty good, especially the Adidas for a spring chicken like myself

 

Sorry

 

Pics! When are you turning it into a rally car?

 

You gotta pay if you wanna play, and there’s a 100% chance that i would smash it. Just no doubts about that whatsoever.

I have also wanted to build a tribute East African Safari Rally 240z. I was eyeballing a few different ones back in the mid to late 90’s when you could still find them for $2500~$3k.

 

Nice double

 

You're gonna have to elaborate on this one... I missed alll the fun

 

Oh you caught that?...

 

The only shoes that help my feet and back for day to day wear.

That said they do wear quickly.

Also, check Khols and their wbsite.... i buy them for 40-50$ a pair when they go on sale and then get enough khols cash to pay for almost a whole other pair later.... and yes, I buy more than one set each time...

 

Got them in blue, 11.5/W! Sketchers nailed it.

 

But of course, sir!!!

 

Thanks! Maybe it fully hasn't hit me yet, but wtf... I'm not old enough to be a grandpa. But yes I am. LOL.
I am very happy for them and they'll be great parents. We had my son when we were teenagers, so while I was always there, I wasn't always the best parent. I wasn't bad by any means, but I was still growing up and learning and I can think back on random things I did or said and think, "that was really stupid." But that's life I guess.

 

I always say I was a 17-year-old 25-year-old, but I was a 26-year-old 26-year-old (had my son when I was 25). I still try to give parenting advice to him (he's 32), to try to help him not make the mistakes I did; but since he's a grown-ass man and in better shape as a parent and person than I was at his age, it has to come in the form of subtle words and stories about what I fucked up when he was young. Conversations like that might take 6 months. Thankfully opportunities are very few and far between. Since making him better at life than I am was my diabolical plan all along, I guess I did okay, even through all the idiocy I so expertly wielded as he was growing up.

 

Slip-on shoes? Fuck, you are a bunch of grumpy old men.

<cough>

Current Shoe: On Cloud 6… very comfortable nearly weightless, breathable. Slip-on

3rd pair

 

I use a 36" shoe horn.
all shoes are slip on.

 

For a self proclaimed old guy I'm still tying my shoes.

 

I first started wearing these slip-ons after back surgery a couple of years ago.
I couldn't reach my shoes to tie them.

Then, with both shoulder surgeries this year, it's hard to tie your shoes with one hand...
But I suppose a lot of people do it every day..
