@Denman-John nice pickup! The only thing I ever use on my horsehide boots is Saphir Renovateur which I get from The Hanger Project (kirbyallison.com).

@John-Galt Thank you very much for the info. I haven’t picked them up yet. They were kind enough to hold them for me while I think it over this weekend. Right now it’s 50/50 but I’m sure I could convince myself. The other pair I was originally thinking about are in marine field roughout with a Commando sole and more than twice the price. This pair may be my Viberg gateway drug … decisions to be made …

@Denman-John Horsebutt is my leather of choice for most non-dress boots; can’t go wrong with a horsebutt.

After a couple of trips down to Viberg in Victoria and way too much overthinking, I finally ordered these boots tonight. The Muschio horsebutt service boots that I posted above really caught me by surprise and were/are very tempting. It ultimately came down to getting what I consider a grail pair of boots for me over a great deal. Don’t get me wrong, the Muschio boots are great at any price, but I’ve lusted over a pair of roughout boots with a commando sole for a long time. These boots ticked all the boxes for me. These pictures are from @brooklynclothing and I’ll post more when the boots arrive.

@Denman-John Those are going to age so nicely.

Had these in the mail today, not really sure if they are for me but have to say the build is stunning

@FlavourFade golden Brown Predator? They look lovely

[Denman John]

@FlavourFade Those boots already look so awesome and they will only get better. I bet you could rock them no problem ~ let’s see a fit pic

@FlavourFade Those are so nice!! Love that leather,,,is that a 310? For some reason it looks a mix of a 2040 and a 310...

[Mizmazzle]

@Denman-John Loving these too!

[FlavourFade]

@Denimhead-0 @Denman-John @Mizmazzle

It's a 310 in aged bark roughout. The smell and feel of the leather is fantastic. Also I really like the Last and the sprung toe BUT the stacked heel is problematic for my knee. Wore them a bit inside yesterday and still feel a little pain now. Will try again later and decide then.

Burg & Schild in Germany still have some sizes if you are interested

[Mizmazzle]

@FlavourFade hope the pain recedes dude. Those are incredible boots.

Horween Golden Brown Predators on 2040 last. Just might have found my most comfortable boot yet.

[Brandrea]

@Mizmazzle exact same here … love the 310 last.

If the right leather comes along, I’m all in on another pair.

[Brandrea]

@Denimhead-0 very nice!

[Mizmazzle]

@Denimhead-0 I’ve been looking seriously at the 2040 last. Great looking boot. How does it compare to the 310 as far as fit and comfort?

[Denimhead 0]

@Mizmazzle love em both, I like looks of 310 better but 2040 out of box a little more comfy. Need a little more time w em. Will report back as they are both keepers.
