      So I'm finally getting around to posting some pics of my loden green service boots.  I've had these a bit over a year, with moderate wear (1-2 times a week, roughly).  Care has been minimal.  Essentially, just wipe them off at the end of the day, usually with the socks I took off at the same time.  One application of Bick 4 about a week ago.

      They looked like this when new-

      They look like this now-

              ^not sure if you're into that, but i somehow could see something like a dainite sole or maybe even a vibram 430 commando sole on these. double leather midsole as well maybe…something a bit more chunky would look good imo!

                I'd want a straightforward vibram 700 lug sole.  Classic and durable.

                    Maybe 700 lug in honey would look nice
                    Like these minus the double mid sole

                          Well, as far as I'm concerned, just about anything would be prettier than the white wedge sole he's got on them now.  Except that ripple sole that was inexplicably popular for a while.  Damn, that's an ugly sole.

                              Yes! Switch out those buckles for some roller buckles and those are the perfect engineers.

                                        ok, I'm with you on this one mate 😉 the honey lug is just a tad too aggressive imo, also that boot needs something black when it comes to the sole…makes it looks too light imo! black sole with natural midsole gives a nice break to the whole look! just my 0.02 though...

                                          I totally agree with Finn. I'm not a huge fan of the honey vibram anyway. 430 all the way with natural edges!

                                            Great boot Concret. Thanks all for the input on my question & for the PMs with very useful information.  Will keep you all posted when I make up my mind . . .
