and the service 50's horween merlot smooth dainite sole

overall shape and loving the vintage toe profile

how are you liking the dainite sole david?

[davito]

I like it Rafa, at the beginning you need to be a bit careful on slippery grounds when wet but as soon as it has broken in (goes pretty fast) absolutely perfect. The rubber holds pretty good, also in my lifestyle with the dog when going out into the nature. And I like the overall look of the sole itself, just make sure you get a legit one

I believe in a service boot I would choose again either this or the good old cats paw if still available.

not too sure what they would go with ..

I like the color, but I don't like the style, I don't really love rough out and I hate that black ripple sole.  But that color in a smooth leather service boot with a commando sole- niiiiice.

I know I'm gonna get flamed but, I just don't get viberg. IMO the price tag is not worth it. They are not 30% better than White's.

[natehate]

its not better jeff, its a preference
i really like the service boot cut and currently whites doesnt have anything that looks like that
also the last's that viberg makes i find more appealing
the sprung toe last is really a good looking last to me, and even thou whites have just released a sprung toe option, its not even close to looking like the viberg one
now if your buying a smoke jumper style boot i dont see a point in going viberg over whites unless they have a leather that gets you really hard
thats at least why i go with viberg over whites, and if you look threw this thread most peoples custom vibergs have been the service boot
and dont responde saying the semi dress is the same as a service boot the cut is totally different

also i find all the whites last look basically the same to me
