These old boots

These old boots have seen some miles
Even though I haven’t worn them in a while
They are just like an old friend to me
When I put them on, it was meant to be

Just today, I dug them out first time in forever
They had that smell I love, of worn leather
I would wear them each and every day
That one pair I loved I have to say

They are getting so worn and really tattered
They still have life and that is what matters
Whenever I pull on these boots, I always smile
Yes these old boots have seen the miles

Boots, shirts, trousers, sneakers... do guys earn some sort of Guy Points from wearing something until it rots offs them??

Ah well, one of life's great mysteries, I suppose.
@newjaninev2 nope, just a favorite pair of boots.

@newjaninev2 It's about wearing what's comfortable as long as we can.

@WillieT Comfort is seldom, if ever, a consideration for me 😀

@newjaninev2 It's about comfort and has zero to do with style... comfort for not just the body, but the soul. Certain articles of clothing/footwear have been with me forever and so too have the memories attached to those items.

My "work" boots, a very old pair of walking shoes, a cardigan sweater my daughter bought me, and a ragged old sweatshirt my ex bought me are my memory keepers.

@Ontheroad It sounds like I need to take you shopping! (that's one of my super-powers)

@newjaninev2 Let's go! But, hands off my comfy stuff😁
