Caught this one in the wild recently, not helped at all by the low-rent steelies+winter tires combo.





You know how when a new, controversial style comes out and you have a really strong reaction to it, but after some amount of time seeing it in the wild you find it doesn't bother you so much, or (shocker!) you find you're actually warming up to it, or at least appreciating it for its boldness?


That has not happened to me with the Clarity. The above sentence has better craftmanship than a Clarity.
