As long as we're doing homage makeups, I'd love something to replicate the 3sixteen 10th anniversary collabo. Harnass or chromepak in olive, 2030, dainite, captoe, 7 or 9 antique eyelets.

Pretty sure Viberg doesn't have either of those leathers in stock.

This whole thing would also be a lot easier if we had a list of leathers that they currently have in stock.

Aren't they sourcing the copper task for the other makeup specifically for this gmto? If so, maybe they could source another...

I want to see some Bison leather or something similar to the Grey scout boot the Haven collab produced.

Sounds good. I think that they have a really awesome tan bison in stock. How about a scout both in that with the grain side out, and on white ripple sole? Sounds sorta Visvim-ish.

I am pretty sure that they are not going to say yes to a shell cordovan model, but I can ask... again.

There's also a natural CXL service boot (most likely on the 2030 last) coming out soon. Might want to see how that comes out before putting in an identical order.

Also Fok, one thing you should add to every listing is Toe Cap. No toe cap for the Black service boot makeup.

I like the black service boot, but more than 7 eyelets. I prefer 8 - 10. Dainite sole. 2040 or 1035 last. Brown Edge

Finally made a SF account to vote for the Natural CXL build. Been waiting for them to put one out for awhile, and the drop coming up is still a crapshoot as to whether I'll be able to get one or not.

The natural CXL with 7+ eyelets on dainite.
