              A service boot is great to have nerkg and lasts for a lifetime if taken bit care of, good luck with ur decision. Unfortunately my feet are not able to pull this last off.

              Cheers,
              David

                        i know when the old boot builder was up at workboot.com there was mocha and icy mocha
                        mocha is a lot darker and i dont believe its cxl
                        icy mocha is cxl and lighter

                                    It is a different toe, but that is not the toe we are doing

                                    Edit.  Thanks Finn.  And it is a different boot

                                          I have photographed the Mocha Ice I have here.  This is pretty damn close to the actual colour (of this particular cow)…

                                            and here´s the pic out of the "viberg leather samples" thread:

                                            ICE MOCHA (will be used for this boot in discussion!)

                                            and just to show the little but still visible difference:
