    I think all my shoes have RUBBERSOLES. I only go for the comfy stuff.

      Fun, thank you! (39A was tricky for me… I somehow couldn't accept that TRAM was appropriate and was stuck on TBAR!)
      • John Larsen constructor · 2024-04-24T19:19:04.780Z
        TBAR is a common one for that for sure! Thanks for doing it!

          The theme, it's eluding me

            18A, 33A, 51A all start and end with the broken up word "RULES". RUbbersoLES, RUmmagesaLES, ReschedULES

            Really fun! My only criticism is that a lot of solvers might not know the shorthand at 63-A and the clue feeding that square via 52-D is very non-standard. Looking forward to solving the rest of your work!
