@Finn666:

Seul you like?

Fuckin' DUH!..

[Finn666]

just for you then E.

[Seul]

Oh for fuck sake… 

[Finn666]

anyone got love for the viberg chukkas?

[Chris]

Not from me.

[natehate]

I don't wanna know the price on there chukkas cause I'm sure it's filthy and I'd have a hard time justifying that compared to everyone else's chukkas

[JCMx800]

I like the laces.

well isn't it the same with their boots (not the filthyness, but the difference in price)?

and yeah, the laces are dope

[natehate]

I can justify the boots to myself because to me there's nothing like the sprung toe service boot on the market. Chukkas are chukkas to me. It's maybe not a rational point of view to others but it is to me

Look like Clarks desert boots with a Vibram wedge sole…...not inspiring.

[Finn666]

I'd go with the boondockers or the oxfords as my next pair I think!

@ronaldlsh:

How dark is the brown cowhide? Looks really really dark from the photos. Can I have a pic with the brown cowhide and cxl in comparison, Finn?

sry Ron, can't help you guys any longer on this. the leather samples were sent back to Giles already, so it's on him now!
but you're right, the brown calf cowhide is a really really dark brown…

edit: fixed!

[ronaldlsh]

Calf and cowhide are different right?

[Finn666]

edited my last post above…ment to say cowhide instead of calf!
calf is a bit lighter in color as cowhide is! still dark brown though...

[ronaldlsh]

From the photos (another thread), the cowhide seems really dark. Almost black.

That is exactly what leather I want to use for my pair of engineer boots. And I believe the leather would age and fade into a lighter shade of brown with wear.

those ^ with a Vibram sole would be lovely , had the ripple soled ones , very love/hate type of sole ..

[Finn666]

i´m really curious to find out how comfortable (or not) it is to walk with a shoe with that sole!

[Takeshi]

went to a car showroom in mine , and they squeek like jimmerny ..
