    My uncle and his ski buddies would wear their leather ski
    boots back in the 50's-60's to save the weight fee as the air
    lines formerly charged for being over the weight limit.

    They were flying from LA to the Swiss Alps and every pound
    counted. They came back really heavy because of all the
    chocolate and sweets!
