Viberg

[natehate]

totally in love with these
they came with black leather laces and waxed cotton
i opted for neither of those laces and took the brown/black leather laces out of my merlot service boot and used them and put the black leather laces into the merlot

dope as hell imo!

what was the damage in the end and more importantly what leathers were used buddy?

[natehate]

icy mocha cxl and black cxl
right around the usual viberg mark of 750
this last is bad ass, feels good, looks good
and im digging the 1940 cut too

Very nice Nate!

[Arabit]

Nice pair Nate! I would've done the same with the laces

[Takeshi]

Having seen a pair Whites with Hiking laces in , I bought a pair of Diemme laces - green & beige , and put them in my brown suede Vibergs , look good ..

So, for those of you who are interested in this sort of thing, I just got another pair of Viberg Service boots.  Here's my effort at the “pretty pictures” portion of the post:

Red Dainite sole

On the feet

A little IH love

And thanks must be given to Giles and Morgan for taking care of my order and making the entire process utterly painless from start to finish.

[Finn666]

wonderful…

[Chris]

I agree.  I love them.

[Seul]

Red dainite sole = best stuff if you want something more discrete than commando…

[Arabit]

Too bad the harness leather is no longer available

Since G kindly allowed me to try on several of his Viberg's to help me figure out my size (10 E seems right), I'm now lusting after a pair of the Copper Task Smoke Jumpers…....once I had these on my feet, they just felt so good, and they look so much better in real life than in the photo's (and they look pretty good in the photo's, so that's saying something!)

Also seemed to be a perfect match for my olive 705's

This is my next pair… (Since I just commissioned one its time to find the next one right?)

[Finn666]

^ this guy

btw. is it the same leather as used for the boondockers?…

[davito]

Finn mate boondockers are roughout cxl and smoke jumpers collabo suede per my understanding. But might be wrong..there are more leather experts out here than me

@tatmantall:

[tmg]
