clicks all 3 very nice photography.

Really interesting seeing the contrast from the White's you also posted in the respective thread. These Viberg's seem to be much slower in softening/forming. Heavy

[Jestre]

Absolutely, Snowy.  I have honestly beaten the shit out of these and they hold up extremely well.

[madmonday]

the man has great taste in footwear. i've never really been a fan of this collab, but Jestre makes them look damn good

they actually do…Giles tested that one in person the soles had no damage, he lost his two little toes though cuz the upper wasn't stubborn enough!

Not sure if anyone posted these yet.

I'm not a fan of the blue one's they're releasing but the leather on these is amazing.

3SIXTEEN AND VIBERG’S “DECADE COLLECTION” SERVICE BOOT

"The boot was designed by 3sixteen and produced in collaboration with Canadian bootmakers Viberg. Made of Horween Chromepak leather with brass eyelets, leather laces and a dainite sole, the shoe is durable enough for tough winters."

I've seen this Chromepak once before at a men's show at the Chippewa booth. Natehate was with me.

If I remember correctly, it's all the best qualities of CXL and all the best qualities of traditional hard wearing leathers. Simply amazing. Super thick and super supple.
There were a couple other nice colors as well. I think there was a really cool olive drab color.

@mclaincausey:

Close but no Banana.  These are some that I discussed with Morgan before we (Tat) came up with the idea of the Wild Ones.  They are pretty similar though (except this pair is horse - sorry)…...

[tatmantall]

Those are looking crazy nice

[Giles]

It is pathetic, I know, but every 15 minutes or so, I have to go back and look at that image…...

[Jordan23]

Speechless!

Enjoy ya addiction!
