TAFT puts its Oro Viejo finish on the Jack penny loafer

From the editor

I've owned TAFT boots and loved them. They wear well and they're comfortable almost from the first day, with hardly any break-in. The Jack in Oro Viejo is unlike anything I've seen, and it would be a hit at a wedding.

I haven't ridden the Pathfinder 2.0, but Magnum makes solid bikes. The low step-through matters for older riders or anyone with balance issues, because you never have to swing a leg over the middle. I've watched grandparents deal with exactly that. I'd call it a small cargo bike for getting around town more than a bike that does it all. I've spent a lot of time on cargo bikes, and they're great for errands, though they're heavy and a pain to put on a rack. A smaller one has me on board.

The Possibles Pouch is the one I'll probably buy for myself. You can't have too many first aid pouches, because they always go missing right when you need one on a hike or a backcountry ski day.
