If you ever get a chance to visit the Nantucket Whaling Museum it is a must-see. Pops used to drag us there but that was the old museum, now it is really jazzed up. $15 entry but really worth it at least once. The old posters advertising for young men to join a whaling ship etc are great. Why not?
Watch: Omega reissue of the Jacques Cousteau collab Ploprof watch from 1971 -nicknamed PloProf by the French speaking development team and derives from the French term PLOngeur PROFessionnel (Professional Diver) as per Watchismo. No way in hell I could spring for this but it is a fugly beauty.
Belt: Brooks Bros but everything else is standard 10engines issue; Levis and gingham shirt -check, older Carhartt jacket -natch', crepe soled shoes -yawn.
Unbreakable hair organizer: Draplin. Your hat will probably blow off anyway on the ferry, so drag a comb and some wax through that mess and lay it down.
[Update: shoes are from Sears.]

what shoes are those ?
remember our visit to Nantucket when Ol was a babe and the Museum was a highlight ! Just in a different league - Mutt
What shoes are those? I've been looking for crepe-soled work shoes (like what Red Wing used to make, but doesn't anymore).
shoes are Sears DieHard Sure Track. quality has dipped recently i'm told, but love the crepe "shoe" rather than the boot.
