Was it a weapon? A fashion accessory?
What ever happened to the gentleman's cane?
Anyone have one and use it as an accessory rather than a necessity?
if you saw a well dressed man walking, unhindered by health, with a cane what would you think?
"what's up with this guy?"
or
"what a classy gentleman"
Amen but my 2006 auto accident left me gipped up.May you all own and sport as many canes as you please and never require them, gentlemen!
The latter. What would you say if you saw a man wearing this at the beach?

If I saw a young man, who looked in the top of health using a cane, I'd think he was a douchebag. Whatever practical (or impractical) reasons healthy people used them in the Victorian era just don't exist anymore. Mostly being that we just don't walk as much anymore. I actually will use 2 lightweight aluminum hiking poles when I'm on long (week long or more) backpacking trips. I thought they looked silly until I used them. Having 2 poles in hand makes navigating sometimes tricky backwood trails easier with a 30 pound pack on your back.if you saw a well dressed man walking, unhindered by health, with a cane what would you think?
