Re: Recent Purchases
I actually wear a slim waist one meant for runners for when I exercise out in the park so I don’t have to leave my wallet and keys in the car, or jangling around in my pockets. It’s pretty inconspicuous underneath your shirt tail if you don’t put bulky items in there.dad wrote:i came very close to buying one of these before we went to Europe.Higgs wrote:What are you looking at?

I think I'll get one before we go again next year.
that said, I had no issues with pickpockets, but I was also keeping my hands in my pockets in overcrowded areas.

Re: Recent Purchases
nah. i have an Rx pair that i wear for distance on the reg. they're bifocals too, but trying to read with them can be a pain, so having dedicated readers seemed like the move.tragabigzanda wrote:I assume you’re stacking them to save money on distance glasses ?
stacking 'em in case i lose one or they break or whatever.
