      I'm into anything with some strength to it . I like cxl and have boots in it ad another being made but in a engineer I want something I can trash on. How's that oil tan for strength?

          and have you guys tried on a pair of 1 heel lift ? did you know that it makes it more comfy for the boot?

            For me I'm 6'3" I don't need any more height then I already have and I have angry feet so yeah regular is my preference . I think that may be something that doesn't need to be exact between every boot?
            What does everyone think about the brown mid and 705 sole?

              if anyone wants their midsole in brown. just use  brown shoe polish and or use neatsfoot oil to brown the midsole.

                    OK people we are back to basics.  The spec has to be the same for each of the boots, otherwise Viberg will not make them.  I can accomodate a heel lift variance, but that's now the only change I can accept.  Sorry.  G

                                    OK.  I think this is where we are

                                    BLACK LEATHER OIL TANNED LEATHER
                                    STRAPS BE IN THICK OILED BLACK LEATHER
                                    no pull tabs
                                    no lining
                                    Either standard height heel or  1 additional heel lift
                                    vibram 435 sole
                                    good year heel
                                    single stitched welt
                                    extra 1 inch lenght on top and bottom strap
                                    310 last
                                    single midsole

                                    AND WHATS SO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS IS THAT I WILL SEND VIBERG VINTAGE ROLLER BUCKLES FOR US TO USE AND PUT ON THE BOOTS. IN BRASS MATTE FINISH  (that is Ed being generous)

                                    So, we have confirmed Demonito (Ed) and Freeman….

                                    That's Black CXL on the boot above. The Black Oil Tan is a good strong leather we use on our work boots. It's produced by Seidel Tanning Corp. in Milwaukee, WI. I'll be including a batch of leather samples for Giles' review along witht the order that's nearing completion. Stay tuned!
