      Those are chunky… buckle envy

      I'll understand if the answer is "no" but I'd love to buy a set of brass ones.

      Think it, be it.

        I can do that.  I will pop them up on the site as a purchasable item in next few days.  Likely to be about USD10 a set….

              I take it that the price point of the ones that will be taken in for stock that will be available in March/April, ie not pre-orders, will be around the same as the price mentioned in the first post of this thread, 875.00 USD or roughly 636 EUR?

                  Thanks, and they're still on schedule for March/April, or sooner maybe?

                    The pre-ordered ones are due in March, but that has probably been delayed (yet) again.  Viberg lost their compressor for a week and they are super backed up, plus I am actually having to have the buckles specially made for me in Japan and that is taking longer than I could have imagined.  I'm trying to determine exact impact at the moment.  Once I know the likely impact, I will drop a mail to all those who pre-ordered.  I'd guess the ones for stock will be 12-14 weeks behind the pre-orders…..

                        Glad you finally found some that will work G

                        I did not…......They actually proved to be "OK" and would have done the job, but on balance I decided they were not good enough.  So I threw caution, sensibility and my check book to the wind and had some cast especially for me in Japan.  They arrived today and are beautiful.  This monster delay has caused a significant delay in the release of the boots, I am trying to ascertain what the final impact will be from Morgan.....

                              Looks like the wait was worth it though.  The buckles looks fantastic…

                                So.

                                Old ones - curved away from the curve of the foot and the prong bar stands very proud, so could be uncomfortable when straps tightened

                                New ones - Follow the natural curve of the foot.  Buckle bar is flush.

                                      Those will be way easier on the straps and counter.

                                          Can I ask, is the brown oil tan confirmed? If so would or could another brown be considered for a future build?? ie Brown CXL or even Brown wax flesh??
