[Jordan23]

Enjoy ya addiction!

[Giles]

Well, that is effectively the Wild Ones done out of Wax Flesh, so this is feckin simple…..

[mclaincausey]

Dainite on an engineer seems vaguely heretical to me for some reason…

[Finn666]

simple but oh so good G.!

it's just the 3rd option, that's all!…

[mclaincausey]

I do love the build i must say

[EastWest]

In need of a smarter boot so any takers on the leffot Icy Boondocker in a different smooth leather, dark Brown/ Merlot ideally. Would get them from them but not a huge fan of customs charges to the UK.

You are now.

[trail and arrow]

@seanocono:

Heard back from Viberg. The Country Derby Boot can be done in the 2005 last, and they have both the Black and Brown Wax Flesh still available.

Just a heads up, trail and arrow. You now have two.

great!
mike, what's with you?

[emceeQ]

Count me out.  I'd love a new pair of boots, but I'm trying to plan a trip out to Colorado or California this spring so most of my spare cash is going into the trip fund at the moment…

[Snowy]

I'm still keen on the below if any other interested parties….

[natehate]

Snow man if you can get them that last is super comfy and looks outstanding in person (I have almost the same pair)

[seanocono]

Do you know the last #, nate?

[natehate]

i honestly believe they just refer to it as the work boot last or something similar
if you scan threw the viberg thread you should be able to find my build
i believe i just copy and pasted what i ordered from the emails to here
heres a pic the day i got them

the toes not overly aggressive looking like the 310
but not flat and girly either
i think it's vibergs most under used last

[seanocono]

Hmm. Okay, I'll dig. Does 160 ring a bell to anyone?

Thanks, nate. Nice boots, BTW.

[natehate]

i'm almost positive it doesnt have a number
i took the wording right from the burg & schild description
and in all my talks with morgan and jason it's been called the work boot last

1940 service boot (5 hole 6")
work toe last
single brown midsole
vibram 705 brown sole and heel
icy mocha cxl toe
black cxl shaft
icy mocha cxl heel
black tongue
brass eyelets
black leather laces
and stitching, not sure what color was used in the boot im copying, but id go the same route
12.5 ee

that's for sure right from an email with jason

[seanocono]

I appreciate the insight, nate. Thanks for taking the time.

Viberg could sure save us a lot of headache (and I'm sure a lot of time answering inquiries), if they would just post some sizing info on their site.

[natehate]

what i would like to see is a pic of all the lasts made into the same boot
so say natural cxl all service boots
all same sole and configuration
then you could REALLY see the differences in the lasts
to me all the flatter toe styles look the same
maybe a line up shot of them all marked would be super helpful too
when you're comparing lasts but the boots not even close to the same configuration it's hard to focus on that and not the rest of the boot
for me anyways
