We can not figure out how to change the lock code on th two main locks. Any help?

@AstepAbove21 26 күн бұрын

1. Slide the resettable button form "off" to "set" 2. Set the dial to your desired code. 3. Slide back the resettable button to "off". You should be able to open the lock with your new code. 4. The reset button is located on the inside of the suitcase. Best of luck.

@BuckFush08 24 күн бұрын

Open the lock, then check the back of the lock, and you'll find a small switch to set or lock combination.

I still have 3 of 7 shirts from that order 17 years later. Even more miraculous, they still fit. The price seemed extravagant at the time. Looking back, it was more than fair.

@Dizoliot 3 ай бұрын

gaping happens also when the waist of the shoe is too narrow. You need a shoe with a wider waist.

@AstepAbove21 3 ай бұрын

Yes, that can be an issue with loafers. However, that is not the issue in my situation for I have many loafers and the issue still persists. Having flat feet, your arches collapse on the inside, pushing the weight of your foot to the inside of your shoe creating a gap. The best course of action in my opinion, would be a pair of bespoke or custom shoes.

@Dizoliot 3 ай бұрын

@@AstepAbove21 Loafers are a notoriously hard fit even with bespoke, on first bespoke many shoemakers will flat out refuse to do a loafer at first because of fitting issues. Nearly all loafers gape for me so I can't wear one. If I go full bespoke they'd have to make the waist wider but then it loses some of its 'ornamental' beauty. Also I have two bunions on my feet which isn't an issue but it makes my shoes in the end not as pretty. It's annoying but, it is what it is at the end of the day.

Very nice style sir. Field/safari jackets are such a great way to have elevated casual layers if you don't want to wear a sports coat. I do t think you have too much to worry able with shrinkage as long as you wash on cold and don't try to put it in the dryer. Linen is a pretty stable fiber but it will soften in time as you said. Congrats on the first purchase from Spier & Mackay, it can become addictive.

I certainly need to up my sock game. GG and Kirby are out of my price range especially with the current exchange rate. I do like GGs stripped socks being vertical and the idea that you can tie the two colors into your outfit. It may sound odd but I did first try women's knee high socks that looked suitable for men in color, thickness and texture; just to see how knee high socks would feel. It was a game changer to not feel like I had to keep pulling up my socks.

3 year old video but first one I am watching of yours. As i say to everyone, I don't know why some youTubers hate the sound of their voice. I am here to hear your words, not music to distract me from what you are saying.Good topic and questions. You don't mention gently used, but if one goes that route try to make sure the items fit. If they don't fit make sure you are willing to pay the tailor costs, otherwise the item will just sit around. If you are willing to get an item tailored: 1. Do not buy an item smaller than your size. and 2. Buy an item that is only one size larger, not two and three times your size.
