You're  a gent, many thanks. Now i need to find some!!

Good luck you will not find a nicer boot

Has anybody experience with the Horween Waxed Flesh leather? I have this on my Vibergs and am unsure how to take care of it. It starts to wear off and give way to the brighter colour of the leather, but I would prefer them to stay dark. Should I try black shoecream and Otterwax or would this "ruin" the idea of that leather?

[mclaincausey]

My guess is good ole fashioned shoe polish

No help to Max's question, but did you know Waxed Flesh leather, French Waxed Calf leather & Huntsman leather are all one and the same & that it's actually heavly waxed or dubbed roughout?

Here's the source:

I had no clue . . .

[mclaincausey]

That actually does answer the question. Shoe polish it is.

Thanks for sharing that link @madmonday - very helpful intel.

Smoked Reverse Kudu Service Boot


1st photo is more accurate regarding color.  These have tons of character. Very interested to see what they will look like with miles on them.

Damn, those look amazing!

^^That color

[Bluegrass]

Wow that is one of my all time favorites!!  Lucky guy 

[summ3rhays]

They looked so much dressier in other pics I've seen.

Now that´s something differend than the usual brown/black. I wonder how they will look when they get darker.
Really nice boots!

Hey guys I'm having a horrible time deciding which size Service Boots to go for. My Scout Boots in 9.5 are perfect, but I currently only have a choice of 9 or 10 in the 2030 last? I'm a 10/10.5 in Clarks DBs, I'm a 10.5/11 in Vans New Eras, and a 9.5 in Viberg Scout Boots. I'm about a 10.5-11D according to the brannock system. The Scout boots fit great.
I was originally going to get the 9s but I have a strong feeling that they will be too small. Thoughts? Any help would be amazing.

[derivative666]

If you have a wider foot definitely go with the 10.

[seanocono]

I would go with the 10.

[Hereforthebeer]

I would wait for a restock in whatever your chasing and get a 9.5.  I'm the same size on all Viberg lasts.

[Snowy]

I'd go 9.5 as well if perfect
