ONE OF PITCHFORK'S BEST MUSIC BOOKS OF 2019

Since 2014, The Hard Times has been at the forefront of music journalism, delivering hard-hitting reports and in-depth investigations into the punk and hardcore scene. From their scathing takedown of Kim Jong-un after he appointed himself the new singer of Black Flag to their incisive coverage of a healthy Lars Ulrich being replaced by a hologram, the site has become a trusted source for all things counterculture.

Now, in this zine-style "historical retrospective," the writers behind the site reveal their humble roots, documenting The Hard Times' ascension alongside the rise of punk. With original articles from their 'archives' commenting on '70s, '80s, and '90s punk, as well as fan favorites from the aughts onward, this comprehensive examination of the scene will make readers dust off their Doc Martens and creepy crawl their way to the nearest pit.

Shoe
Size: 10-11 Women/9-10 Men, Color: 1a-stripe Black-2
These beach shoes have been super comfortable and practical. They fit well, are lightweight, and the sole has great grip, even on wet surfaces. I used them at the beach and by the pool, and they protected my feet really well from hot sand and rocks. They also dry quickly and are easy to carry.

Good, quick, easy water shoes.
Size: 8-9 Women/7-8 Men, Color: 1a-stripe Black-2
For the price? Great little water shoes for a small body of water! Size is accurate, material is breathable, the shoes are lightweight and no cuts/scrapes when out of the water noted. Good buy!

Comfortable to Wear
Size: 11.5-12.5 Women/10.5-11.5 Men, Color: 2c-1172 Watermarks
These are easy to put on and extremely comfortable. The material seems thicker than my old water shoes, so should last longer. The soles provide good grip, even in a swimming pool, which makes them ideal for use in activities like water aerobics. The color flashes on the shoes make them interesting and more appealing than plain black. Highly recommended

Comfy Pool Shoes
Size: 11.5-12.5 Women/10.5-11.5 Men, Color: 1a-stripe Black-2
I’ve had these pool shoes a couple of months now. Here are my thoughts. Pros: Inexpensive, comfortable, fit well, dry fast, protect feet for you pool joggers. Cons: The inner sole gets loose, the material around the toes breaks down. Bottom line: For the money they’re worth it. Just don’t expect them to last a long time.

Love these. Good quality. Wore these to the beach and in the water on vacation and also wear them several days weekly to local pool. Very comfortable.
