IHVB-01 - Iron Heart/Viberg Indigo and black Scout Boot
-
Ha. Are we making a project out of those boots, Shane?
Ha, well I figure I will beat the crap out of them over the next NYC Winter month and see how the soles are. If I like them by then, I'll keep them, otherwise I'm gettin them switched out.
The colour really grew on me. So much so that, despite my initial clamouring for the Superblack sole, I would have found it less appealing had I gone the other way.

Figured I'd post a few pics of these bad boys. Haven't seen any wear pics yet. I'll try to update every month to show the wear. Shoreman said he wore them 10 times, but they looked like they were worn maybe 4-5 times, just a few scuffs on the soles. I've worn them about 10 times already. Applied Obenaufs LP. The water buffalo interior quarter with the 21oz. denim exterior quarter really are my favorite part. It's already formed to my ankle and feels like an armor plate is wrapped around them.
Absolutely love these. Only criticism would be the amount of tongue ( ??? ). I like the height of it but the width is just too much. It bunches up a lot.

Can't speak to how waterproof these are out of the box but post Obenaufs they are like little submarines. I'm in Toronto right now for the week and the weather is horrible. Steady light snow with a ton of wind. And all day today freezing rain and slush. These have conquered snow, freezing rain, puddles, salt and slush. BUT, the soles are not good for this shit. Def not a winter sole, obviously. Been slipping and sliding all day. I'm DRY though. I'll take pics later.

could of just walked across the beach to the actual location & decided it was a great place to snap a photo ::)
it happens. way to make them your own urb. not a fan of the width of those laces, think the boot needs a thicker lace to properly support them.
i don't bbq inside seul, were you get that idea from?
**you know me, just talking sh!t don't mind me

Honestly, I am with you. I'm still not happy with my lace choice with these. This is the fourth pair I've tried(brown/gold, brown leather, black leather, red nylon). Might just go back to the black leather ones, unless I find a thicker red.
