That's what I have put down as a MTO with my HK dealer 12 weeks ago.
FOXY - Can I ask what you're paying for them? I've been after some rough out boots for a while. These are beauties.

I put down the army boot version (different finish at the top), brass hardware, double leather sole, straight blocked heel (not curved), etc.
Since I order through HK I get around high taxes plus I get a discount at my dealer. That puts my boots at a 450€, give and take… -
Thanks Foxy, they sound like they'll be smashing boots!
where can we get that sort of thing done in the UK?
would this be a G - thing?? -

honeylug outsole is so perfect for me. looking very fwd to these. . . not sure about the buckle, but that is so minor a detail & my jeans will likely cover it . . . so i don't even mind.
patiently awaiting sizing to be worked out so i can get this going. would love to be a test subject just so i can get my pair a bit earlier
***have to go about measured proper like so i have no issue with the sizing on these

I think I know exactly what you mean with the buckle (my thoughts were the same initially) but I have to say that it is a detail that definitely makesg the boot. I think mine are exactly what G is going for with a different sole, when the time comes for a resole I'm going for a lug sole.
On the sizing thing, mine are a full size down from my Nike Air Max 90 size and they're still roomy enough to use a proper thick bootsock. The boot is very bulky though, very much bulkier than say a pair of RW 875 in the same size. Don't know if it's because of the thickness/layers of leathers used but anyway they feel bullet proof.

Took a nice little stroll today in the sunshine.

yeah you did snag a nice pair a while back & you did that cool modification on the sole. if you get the chance can you put up some current flicks?
want to see how that light color has evolved since you last posted a flick, & thanks for the sizing advice, it won't be ignored
