      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…..

        OK, thanks.

          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.....

              A Haraki-like obsessiveness… Bravo!

                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??

                                Cool ok mate. What's the likelihood of a 9D in the brown OT being in stock from any extras built once they are completed?

                                        Pre-ordered boots should be here within the week.  Stock on non ordered I think will be about a week or 2 later….
