It's an illness. That's all I'm gonna say.

Make sure the cop can see them the first time you get pulled over.

Or on second thought, maybe not.

Imagine if Paul Champagne made a Nomex racing suit- French seams, yellow cad-plated zipper, alcantara HANS pads, integrated cooling lines, sewn-in lumbar air bladders, built-in camelback for your beverage of choice.....

Dan I think you should have one commissioned.

The only thing you missed:

It needs a timer, so that if you wear it after midnight, it WILL NOT COME UNDONE until 7am the next morning.

Wait a minute, you are from Arizona and think those are racing boots? This place is getting weird....

I guess that means I have a pair snake skin, elephant, shark, and lizard racing boots

I like those, but I'm not sure I'll put them on for my next DE

You might be a redneck. I have many pair of boots but none have a checker patteren. Kind of racing redneck chic.

That is an outstanding piece of work Buddy.

Came out even better than I expected.

For those who don't realize, the black leather is engraved Pascha. The turquoise leather is a metallic color match to Dan's car, and the boots have been crafted by one of the grand masters of bootmaking in the US.

Mr. Bond called me himself today before sending the pic. To get an idea of the quality of his boots, just about anyone in professional rodeo or celebrity cowboys (John Wayne for example) are/were his customers. I think he is in his 90's now. I showed him pictures of the seats Paul Champagne did for me, he was well impressed and indeed had Paul work the boot leather into the perfect colors and textures. Thanks Paul for the efforts you extended on my behalf.
