Tall Boiled Wool Jackets

I love these two tall boiled wool jackets available from Lands' End. If the word "wool" brings to mind all that is heavy and bulky, you've never tried this boiled wool. It's soft, supple and totally unconstructed (no shoulder pads, linings or other heavy "make"), so it always feels comfortable. A front zipper gives these jackets a sporty look that pairs beautifully with everything from tailored trousers to khakis to jeans. Both tall jackets are available in multiple colors and in tall sizes 4-18.     
$98.50                                                                $119.50

Men's Large Shoes for Work or Play 

This is a great large size shoe by Rockport.  The sizes range goes up to size 17.  $85.95 It has great reviews such as this one:

Applauding A Good Shoe September 19, 2007
Reviewer: David Hanson from Santa Paula, CA
Shoe Size: Felt true to size.
Shoe Width: Felt true to width.
I walk long distances daily and replace my walking shoes frequently. The Rockport World Tour Classic walking shoes proved to be a very pleasant surprise. These shoes provide very good support while offering outstanding comfort from the first walk. They are nice looking and suitable for any casual wear. I bought a second pair and change daily. I believe a good part of the comfort afforded by these shoes comes from the lacing design. The top of the foot feels little constriction from the laces while the shoe remains firmly and stablely in place.
Wears this shoe: Daily for exercise and for casual wear.

A Personal Note from Krista

On this day of grief for our country, let us pause to remember all of the victims of 9/11 including the emergency workers who put their lives on the line daily for us.  My father was a Marine in Vietnam and then was a career policeman.  He died in the line of duty when his helicopter crashed while searching for a missing toddler.  Today I pause to say a prayer for all policeman, firefighters, emergency workers and soldiers everywhere that they may be protected and blessed for their efforts to help all of us.  I also pray for peace and harmony throughout the world.  At the very least, remember to post your flag today!
Thanks,

Krista
