      @Simon:

      These are beautiful, not sure how they could be improved for a colab?

      I'd say do a black pair with just the top part where the stitching is a strip of duck, do some black on black with the orangish leather sole with black rubber beneath, that way the duck and the leather soul compliment one another. subtle and delicious.

      personally i like the wingtip or cap toe versions of the service boot best, i feel less is more, you guys have already done 2 pair of denim sided viberg's, why not take a more subdued approach.

      cheers

        also,

        i really dig the short shift boots, if you did a pair of black / black (say suede and full grain calf) with brass buckles and the pull straps with some duck accents. and once again a leather sole with the black rubber (pardon my lack of nomenclature) also in the heel having the piece of black in the middle really adds some nice contrast, once again it'll compliment the duck accents.

        cheers

                    I think this might be what Lando wants…

                    Yeah, but with Black Rough Out and a Steel Toe.

                              Maybe something like this, an army inspired colorway. I don't like much about these but you get the drift. I'm not a fan of roughout or white soles.

                                    I also like the idea of service boots. Viberg service boots are truly awesome.  😘

                                      mad mon, I shouldve given credit to Viberg Blog for the pics I posted. although ive probably studied every facet of those and others like it as if it were my own family album

                                            I know. I read the whole thing. Just like that color makeup. I am going to try to think of something atypical from my previous contributions.
