Last night, f00dave actually left the house to go to the Renn with me. Here we are in our matching shiny pants. You can see more pictures of the night here.
I'd like to second the exotic Queen comment. Where did you get those boots? They're fabulous. I think...you could use some fingerless gloves of some sort, though. That would make it look completely bad-ass.
I got the boots at a discount shop somewhere in Toronto. I was very excited to get them. Unfortunately, they look better than they feel. The greaves send the leather down into the tops of my feet in a painful way.
...
I have gauntlets, but they're made of brown suede and wouldn't really go.
You have a pair, too? Do they hurt your feet? The fuckers dig into the top of my foot, and I'm not sure if I can adjust them so they don't. I might have to sell them.
I've actually got two pairs, one with the plates and one with a leather "plate". They used to be fairly uncomfortable, but I finally broke them in. Leather conditioner and thick socks helps...
I've been trying to break these boots in for a long time. No luck, so far. By the time I got home last night, I had big white and red sores on the fronts of my ankles. My dancing was seriously handicapped, too. If I could get about another inch or two of heel added, I think that would compensate for the binding that's going on, though.
