Bean Boots for the first time in German fashion magazine

So Bean Boots finally made their way to Germany.

In the Winter issue of German InStyle Men I noticed a feature about Duck Boots including L.L.Bean's Bean Boots (they look kind of dated if you take a closer look at the rubber chain-tread bottom).

I wasn't aware that there are so many knock-offs on the market.

Sorel and Lacrosse come pretty close to the original.

I wonder when I'll se the first fashion victims wearing Bean Boots here in Ddorf.

Supporting BFBS Big Salute

Listening to BFBS when I drive to work every day, it kind of makes me part of Forces world.

I've learned about the this year's Big Salute, supporting 5 Forces charities.

These are:

- Blesma - The Limbless Veterans
- Blind Veterans UK
- Combat Stress - The Veterans' Mental Health Charity
- FAB - Families' Activity Breaks
- Veterans Aid


Albeit I'm neither British nor been in the German Army, I think supporting charity is very important, so I bought a wristband.
