Men’s Folsom 6-Inch Boot Lugz #Review #2019HGG @LugzNYC

2019 Holiday Gift Guide, Gifts For Him, Reviews · 

I received the below mentioned complimentary product either for free or a discounted price for the purpose of this post. All opinions and thoughts are 100% my own.

You know how when you find a shoe brand that you love, It is impossible to sway away from it. That is how I feel about Lugz. I was thrilled when once again they wanted to be included in my 2019 Holiday Gift Guide. It also means that I get to review a pair of shoes from their new arrivals which they always have plenty new ones all the time. I chose the Lugz Men’s Folsom 6-Inch Boot.

About The Lugz Men’s Folsom 6-Inch Boot~

Color: BLACK CHARCOAL. Also comes in CHESTNUT BARK GUM and DK BROWN FALCON-BLACK

With the Folsom 6 inch moc toe boot, durability, comfort and style unite. Designed to meet every man’s needs, these slip resistant boots keep you planted firmly on the ground – making every step sure and true.

My Review/Thoughts~

My husband has been wearing Lugz shoes ever since the days when he worked at a carpet cleaning service where the chemicals they used would eat through his boots. That was until he tried Lugz. Since then, he will not wear another brand. Eric knows that he is not to use or wear a product that I receive as a review item until I take a picture of it. When he consistently asks if I took a picture of the boots, I know he is over the moon in love with Lugz Men’s Folsom 6-Inch Boot already. I took the picture. I think someday that Eric just might be a blog reviewer very soon. He would not so saying how these had to be the most comfortable boots that he ever worn. How sleek and stylish they looked. How soft the leather is. He also stated that it felt like he was walking on a cloud.

I give the Lugz Men’s Folsom 6-Inch Boot my highest recommendation and my seal of approval. Eric approved also! Any of Lugz footwear would make the best Holiday Gift!

Choosing a Caravan for Your Family

Reviews · 

Staycationing has never been more popular in the UK with over half of Brits planning holidays in their home country each year. This desire to get to know our own backyards has gone hand-in-hand with the rebirth of caravanning. And it’s easy to see why. It’s the joy of retreating to rural settings with the luxury of home comforts.

It’s the pleasure of getting the family together in one place. It’s the sense of freedom you don’t get with other holidays.

NCC approval 

The majority of caravans sold in the UK will be approved by the National Caravan Council (NCC), which is the official industry trade body. The NCC also operates certification schemes for other potentially dangerous components of the caravan: gas installations, water systems, emergency exits and tyres. It’s always worth conducting your own independent checks but any vehicle that carries an NCC badge will have been subjected to rigorous examination to ensure all of these aspects are up to spec.

Size and weight 

How many people does your caravan need to sleep? You might think you need four berths for a family of four but there are other ways to create enough space for everyone.

Your caravan choice will naturally be influenced by the towing capacity of your current vehicle. You can divide your car’s kerbweight by 100 and multiply it by 85 to find the upper limit of its comfortable towing weight.

If it’s your first caravan, a lighter more compact model is generally a safe bet, offering you greater manoeuvrability, cheaper ferry fares and road tolls, and better fuel economy. Paired with a simple awning, you can easily house and sleep a small family in a two-berther with basic kitchen and bathroom facilities.

Amenities 

Well-equipped caravans can look incredibly flash in the showroom ,and this can easily trick you into believing you need more amenities than you really do. Bathrooms take up a lot of space. Cooking units add serious weight onto any vehicle, and attractive carpets can easily become begrimed with mud.

It’s especially important to consider the practicalities of layout. If you’re likely to be staying in places with good on-site facilities, you can afford to cut back on interior vehicle space dedicated to bathroom and kitchen areas.

Cost and financing 

Once you’ve chosen your vehicle, you have to work out how you’re going to pay for it. Bear in mind that as well as the initial outlay of purchasing the caravan itself, you’ll also have to shell out for additional running costs: insurance, road tax, MOTs, servicing. If you’re looking to buy, you can source generous financing packages from Auto Finance Online, who offer a range of options to suit every budget. Paying an initial lump sum towards your new caravan should help you to access more attractive interest rates.

Less is more 

There’s something to be said for more compact options when it comes to choosing your first caravan. If you start small, you can always add space on later. The same is not true for a larger vehicle, however. You’ll also be looking at dropping less of your hard-earned cash if you choose a smaller option. Not to mention the fact that there’s less of a steep learning curve when it comes to hitting the road.

My ReviewThoughts~

I really thought all car vacuums were the same but that was until I tried the Mini Portable Car Interior Vacuum Cleaner. This vacuum is light weight which is a major bonus. As in the picture above, You can see our car seats were very dirty until we started the vacuum up. It has enough suction to clean the seats and floor perfectly. It also comes with 6 piece accessories that allow you to get into the tiniest of grooves. It maneuvers like a dream. I have even started to do the vacuuming. That is how easy it is to use. It plugs right into the cigarette light slot so you always have power. It also comes with a nifty carrying case so that you can keep all the pieces in the same place. The carrying case has a very sturdy zipper. We own another car vacuum which is big and bulky that only picks up the big stuff not the fine gritty stuff.

I highly recommend the Mini Portable Car Interior Vacuum Cleaner and give it my thumbs up.

This is not a political blog. I do not care in the least about who you vote for….as long as it is not Trump. When I saw this mug, I thought it was perfect. It would be a bad dream if this was true.
