      Shameless Plug:

      I don't usually do [this], but I'm so excited & I'll just explode if I hold it in any longer😱

      Styleforum is currently conducting a Viberg GMTO__ an activity FOK does 2-3x a year.  This round he's going to have a very interesting Engineer Tobacco Chamois on 2005 x Cat's Paw heels+half soles, called the HOPPER on the pre-sale block.

      The highlight of this fab make up is leather itself.  Nice weight for an engineer's__ similar thickness & density as Horween CXL used by Viberg w/ less stretch factor, as per FOK.

      I've been more of a lace-up kinda guy … just cuz I like the feeling of being comfortably snug&secured down there ... Plus, I don't think I got steeze to pull off an engineer's😊

      FOK had quite a few unique, tastefully stylish make-ups, to date, eg, [personal fave] "Tan Bison Scout" on white Mini Ripple soles__ too bad they were on 2030 last, w/c is too sleek for my fEEt.

      Thankfully, comes the HOPPER!  I don't want to regret passing up this fabulous make up, so I'm putting my money where my mouth is ….. Pre-sale will commence sometime next week. Will keep you guys posted__ if interested.

      Here's a mock-up of the HOPPER make up proposed by StickyDonk:

          Just looked over at Styleforum, and the Hopper is being built. So you might want to keep an eye on the Styleforum marketplace over the next few days.

          I've got a pair of the Bison scouts on the ripple sole. I like the boots, but the 2030 last is a bit narrow for me, and the elongated toe doesn't suit my size 13 feet.

            👊🏽 This particular make up is just hard to resist.
            Nowadays, just having a pair of 'bergs is not enough anymore__ it has to be unique= less common😎

            Yeah, voted for them to be on 2045 or 110 cuz 2030 is too narrow for my fEEt😁
            2005, however, is a boot last__  a bit more forgiving= more room @vamp__ my Loden Green Service Boots are on 2005 & they're comfy👌🏽

                              ^ Very nice! Are those Colour 8 CXL @derivative666? I picked up a very similar pair only this evening from Benny's Store in HK. Absolutely love them and I never thought the 2030 last would work for my feet. Will get photos up soon.

                                Yes colour 8 CXL I love the 2030 last as long as it has an unstructured toe box

                                  As you can see, these are single stitched, with a very elegant toe shape and close trim - and the cap toe.  I also have the boondockers (2045) and the Engineers (2005) which are double stitched - the boondockers have more of a work boot look.  The service boots (which I presume is the goodyear welt - it says "natural flat welt") are very dressy, which is exactly what I was looking for - something I could wear to work and no one would notice or think I was trying to pull off something trendy.  These boots are as nice as any dress shoes I have - very classic look - I could not be happier.
