      I love everything about those but the caps. I think a bit of structure helps the 2030 and 1035 a great deal, to my eye at least.

      Think it, be it.

          I feel like I can slog through anything in these. Which is one of my boot criteria. For that matter, one of my criteria for any expensive gear I buy is that I have to be able to beat it like it owes me money.

          Think it, be it.

                  I have a pair of mildly used (so probably only 3 or 4 decades wear left in them) 9.5E available, if someone wants to have a pair to try and destroy…...

                    I think my dislike for the 2030 might also stem from the fact that they were murder on the tops of my feet…

                    If viberg made another boot like davitos I'd be damn tempted.

                      One detail of the SJs I may have never mentioned that I really love is that the nap is coarser on the heel counters (a very highly abraded area in a work boot) and lighter on the rest of the boot. It's that kind of attention to detail and practicality that I really appreciate.

                        Jordan; are those black or brown smooth

                        I wish Viberg offered something akin to the color and wear of White's semi dress brown…

                            Yes, this is a great detail. I have the same on my Boondockers (also in roughout of course) and the heel leather picks up more indigo off my denim that the rest of the boot which makes for pretty cool evo. And it has it's practical reasons too, as you pointed out.

                              although it does look decent with skinny jeans.

                              This is exactly why I think I like this last so much. Its sort of just hitting me now lol.

                                    Best boots I ever had. They took me through 2 weeks in Prague and 1 week in Budapest, with never less than 15 km of walking per day.
                                    I think they will easily outlive me.

                                        i decided to treat my IHVB-03CT boots with dubbin after doing some research on youtube and via forums. the advice is provided by military, x-military and military enthusiast guys treating their rough out boots in the way it was done in preparation for the water and gas filled environments of the conflicts in the first half of the twentieth century.

                                            Quite like how that changes them, are you planning on treating the shafts or leaving as is?
