    More Money than Style

    One for the oh so wealthy contractors out there

    Shoe Laces

    They don't do a boot length so no good for me
    Growing old is mandatory
    Growing up is optional

    Just for clarity - are we talking Dick Whittington style ?

    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

        Gold has a tensile strength of 100 mega pascals, or 10 kg per square millimetre. A bit tulip for laces.

        By comparison parachute cord (don't know the cross sectional area) has a breaking strength of 250 kg

        Ultimate tensile strength - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

        Actually come to think of it gold isn't as tulip as I first thought. I thought it was really stretchy (ductile), but it's less stretchy than aluminium, polyethylene and polypropylene. Never handled the stuff unfortunately.

          In your case they wouldn't be very tall, would they?

            I prefer something a little more practical.

            ShoeLacesExpress - Kevlar® Work Boot and Hiking Laces

            100% Kevlar with metal tips, should probably outlast your boots.
            While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

              You Geek!

              We slowly but surely move this thread towards girls and thigh length boots and what do you do? FFS!

                    Are we talking the tone/content of the post or the target?
