I was going to recommend those blue slip-cover, but then I saw these (link).

NTA. Let us know how she likes them.

u/H720 · 57 pointsr/INEEEEDIT

Exactly. This is more of a post to look at and go, "oh cool." Rather than to purchase for your home.

I saw a way cheaper version on Amazon linked in the other thread:

https://www.amazon.com/Automatic-Dispenser-MS2-305-Emperor-Gadgets/dp/B00LO5VYXC

It's $70 and essentially just used rubber bands instead of shrink wrap. It isn't powered either.

u/ItchyPooter · 14 pointsr/Wetshaving

I dunno, maybe these?

YTA because you're enabling his negative behavior. This world is so hard and people don't bend over backwards for autistic people. You need to teach him that not everything can go his way otherwise his life will be one huge struggle. You're husband seems to be the only sensible parent. This could of been a huge life lesson to teach him how to compromise. Here's an easy solution. If he is still not being amicable than he needs to stay in his room because you're the adult here.

If there’s no way of getting out of the client now, these may very well be your new best friend.

>over $600 to start

If you want a cheaper version of the above, without having to buy all the Slacktivity equipment (I live in the USA, so importing all that comes out as quite pricey), you can do the following:

  • Buy 2 cheap stainless shackles and approximately 20-30 feet of 1 inch tubular webbing (any type will do). Tie a frost knot (or an overhand on a bite with extra slack will do, as there is essentially 0 force on this ever) in one end of the webbing, and make your own soft release.
  • 3 - 5 of these 1 inch pulleys off of amazon. Use a grinder/hacksaw/drill to grind off the metal nub on the end, and go to the hardware store to buy some locking nuts, washers, and a 1.75" bolt.
  • Some skate bearings off of amazon (4 bearings per homemade webbing pulley). These go over the bolts, with washers in between, of the pulleys that you took apart to make a homemade set of these. Buy some cheap pear carabiners to go with them. You have now made your own highslides/cheap hangovers for 1/3 - 1/2 the price depending on how many you wanted.
  • Find a 3d printing service near you and 3D print your own linegrips. Buy some very thin rubber (most people recommend the 1 mm vibram sheets, but I used this cheaper one and it works fine) and super glue, thread it with ~6mm cordelette and you have your own linegrip. Do this as many times as you want.
  • Tie some cordelette into bunny-ears knots with differing lengths on each one, and clip your homemade webbing pulleys to each loop. The loop lengths should be long enough that your webbing pulleys don't hit each other. Clip one of the sets of webbing pulleys to your home-printed linegrip, and the other set to anywhere on your anchor. These are your homemade soft RPs.
  • You need 1 weblock. For price, instead of buying 2 stainless shackles, just get 1 and buy the cat-on-slack soft release to hook in directly to your soft release. Or get the normal weblock they sell and hook it onto your stainless shackle. For weight, get a weblock that does not have sharp edges at the connection point and use a soft shackle (discussed below) to connect it to your soft release (like the alpine weblock or use a purelock to go straight into your soft release, both of which are pricey).
  • Don't buy pre-constructed soft shackles, as they gouge you for the price. Buy your own 1/4" amsteel and make your own soft shackles (1 or 2 is fine for long-lining, make 4 or 5 for highlining as you will swap these out for the steel ones on your soft release).
  • For anchors themselves, buy static rope. There are plenty of options out there, and what thickness/weight/breaking strength you want depends on your personal priorities in anchor construction, so I won't make a specific recommendation to you. Canyoneering static rope tends to be better in terms of weight/breaking strength, but is pricier. Depends on what you want.

    This allows you to use the above posted method, even up to a 27:1 mechanical advantage (if you 3d printed 3 linegrips, with 5 pulleys so you could put 2 extra 3:1 multipliers on a 3:1 system) without losing efficiency. Rigging 100m in the park is impossible just using normal carabiners; you really need the webbing pulleys/hangovers. Best of all, you've accomplished this at a fraction of the price of buying pre-made gear, and none of your janky homemade pulleys or linegrips are life-dependent pieces of gear if you went highlining.

Shoe Covers - Amazon

That’s where you’re wrong kiddo

Seems like this does the same job without needing electricity

u/JosephFaolan · 3 pointsr/aspergers

I think they would look silly, but they would not feel any different probably. Here is a potential solution: http://www.amazon.com/Disposable-Polypropylene-Covers-100-Pack-DSC100/dp/B000ICKO88/

I hope you work it out.

u/Agent_Black_K · 3 pointsr/oddlysatisfying

If you're committing crimes every night, it sounds like you'd be making money from it.
EDIT: also this.

Treat yourself and buy one of the Xiaomi sets, which you can get cheaper elsewhere. It's a quality set in a really nice storage case that will cover all your needs including philips, flat-head and torx bits. Future proof and will last a lifetime, rather than the plastic container that will crack and you lose your screwdrivers.

u/brdjfc · 2 pointsr/TalkTherapy

He should get a box of these.

u/CardSpecialist · 2 pointsr/boostedboards

I personally think the packaging is perfect. Its a skateboard... Not a trophy. I also don't believe that any of the grip tape is worn off. Pics or it didn't happen. My board has shipped across the country three times in the same box, same way it was originally packaged. I can't believe you'd complain on the internet over something that you just admitted isn't really a big deal.

Make sure to wear booties over your shoes before you step on it. Here is amazons value pack. Good luck!

u/chrisbrl88 · 2 pointsr/HomeImprovement

Yes, they'll show up. It'll need sanded back out and redone, especially since you used a cleaner on it. After the stain is applied, great care has to be taken to not walk on the floor in anything but CLEAN socks. If shoes have to be worn, shoe covers should be used. This is a pretty expensive learning experience.

What kind of stain did you use and what kind of finish are you planning on using, out of curiosity? Floors are too much work to use hardware store Minwax on.

u/unopdr · 1 pointr/Sneakers

Love these! Definitely giving me those sanitary shoe cover vibes

u/forceofslugyuk · 1 pointr/aww

I had the same thought. No way would that be happening in my house. Shoes off at the door plz, If it ever became an issue for people i'd just buy this for them to use at my place. Problem solved.

Your argument for "wearing" through booties is bullshit. Do yourself a favor a pick up a pair. I even searched for them for you.

u/LagunaGTO · 1 pointr/AutoDetailing

I ask the client, but it's usually very rare. Working so much that my body uses all the water I'm drinking or did drink.

Carry these just in case.

^^...no

On a still silly but ever so slightly more serious note, it turns out that a cleanroom gown with electro-static discharge protection is only about $200-300: gown, shoes, shoe covers, gloves. Just put it all on and hang up a sign declaring your place an ISO 9 cleanroom!

u/Toke_A_sarus_Rex · 1 pointr/homeless

They already make Tyvek shoe wraps for painters, thats a good point, I was thinking whole body protection.


Ive been trying to spread the tyvek suit idea around, but I could easily buy boxes of the shoe wraps in bulk to just hand out, or even just give to local shelters.


Thanks for pointing out that, I was very focused on the rain protection.


But on my mourning walks, (been walking at 5 am) the first thing I noticed was how soaked my non-water resistant shoe gets. Its annoying.

Already experiencing blistering and peeling just from walking in the mourning. So much so that I started to just go sockless for part of the walk once they get wet.


I was thinking of using sandals just to see... Its kinda silly but Im just trying to figure out solutions on my own, I really need to start talking to people that actually lived the Experience.



Heres a Link for a box of 200 on amazon with grip protection, feel free to point this out to anyone that could be interested.

Ray Jardine sewed his own 0.8oz shower booties out of coated nylon and elastic, to avoid athletes foot in public showers. Maybe you could find something like that or make your own?

u/AFK_Tornado · 1 pointr/BuyItForLife

Buy well-constructed boots that can be resoled easily. Welted boots are probably your friend.

Have two pairs of boots and cycle them. The soles will still eventually need replacing, and the uppers will still probably eventually wear out eventually, but a great pair of work boots should last far more than a year of wear with regular maintenance.

Bringing me to maintenance: If you're working construction you probably need to give them a good clean every couple of months, then reapply your wax/oil/preservative of choice.

For concrete work, use overboots like this or this.Something like this might help with the extreme toe wear you're experiencing (...seriously, how did you do that?). Those things will wear out, too, but in the spirit of BIFL the rubber is a lot more sustainable to replace than leather, both on your wallet and on the environment.

u/notarascal · 1 pointr/AskACobbler

No you can't just remove a heel like that and expect to have a functioning boot.

Would an overshoe work?

u/pixelprophet · 1 pointr/ChoosingBeggars

After that initial message, where he tosses in the "you wore your boots, no big deal", at that exact point I knew they were going to try and fuck you over. I would have declined working with them based on that alone stating that you've unable to schedule them based on a down payment from another client. Good on you for staying professional.

FYI: Toss something like these in your truck and you won't have to worry about that shit and its $9:

u/Inigo93 · 0 pointsr/ATBGE

Doubt those are steel toed crocs. Those are someone wearing crocs who then put on some OSHAToes or a similar product.

Short version: They're safety toes that slip on over normal shoes. Many industrial areas will keep them for when they have a visitor who needs to see the place but didn't come wearing steel toes. So you slip 'em on and you're OSHA compliant.
