    The Shell Cordovan, non-Alden Shoe and Boot Thread

    This pair is the most well-worn natural shell footwear I've seen. Heck of an evolution!

    Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

    I suspect the recent influx of retailer SMUs recently may have something to do with that. Brooklyn Clothing recently released 5 new make-ups for their 35th anniversary, including a Marine rough-out boot, so plenty of options at the moment.

    Self Edge SF/NY/LA/PDX/MX - Japanese Denim & Leather, Top Notch Basics, Very Nice Jewelry + Eyewear, & More

    I was in the exact situation with the 8301s, and I've found the IH 888 to work well in addition to Kiya's recommendation of the 633.

    The Official RRL Thread

    Tempting! Anyone have any fit information or know who makes these for RRL?

    Right, I think Alden Madison does "crowdsourcing" of makeups, if I'm not mistaken. I know wedge soles are polarizing, but SOP has a loden suede captoe on TB I've always really dug. Flexing on us two ways: gorgeous boot pics and in the gym! 💪

    I have this shirt in black and it's great, excellent fabric. If you're new to the brand, keep an eye out on the fit measurements as IH sleeves tend to run long on some folks.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    What isn't clear to me is what last is used for the Baker's Bounty Hunter build. Is it basically a MTO Smoke Jumper on the Semi-Dress (55) last?

    Snake Oil Provisions also has a version with black dressing and the Indy stitch on the quarters.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Great makeup, especially paired with that Pigeon Tree belt.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Fresh in some Red Dog roughout Ramblers from Baker's a week ago and breaking them (or them breaking me) in this week.

    Nicks Handmade Boots Official Affiliate Thread

    Interesting, I'd always wondered what was the difference. Is it just the thickness or is the compound they're made of slightly different as well?

    I have a pair of boots on the commando sole and the front stitching has worn down to where the rubber sole is just barely starting to separate, which may be a consideration if you tend to wear the toes of your shoes down quickly. As it's a shell makeup, I haven't worn them in the rain much so I...

    Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

    Thanks all for the responses! This was my thought as well, despite them being a deadringer for the Natural CXL makeup they currently sell. Interesting! Mine only have the text "Viberg since 1931" on the insole with no other branding, so I'm guessing that makes it more likely it's a sample or...

    I just acquired my first pair of Viberg boots second-hand and wanted to get some thoughts as to the details of the makeup, since they came with no box or other identifying information. From what I've gleaned in the posts in this thread and the tag on the inside, it appears to be on an older...

    Boots Boots Boots - For Boot Guys Only

    Nice choice! I had a pair of Danner Mountain Lights resoled with the same Vibram Sierra outsole and I should have done it sooner. Huge difference in utility over the original wedge sole with which they were equipped.

    The same thing has happened to my Wick boots from Snake Oil Provisions, which I purchased earlier this year and haven't worn very heavily. I'll probably keep wearing them unless the problem severely worsens, but no issues thus far.

    Boots Boots Boots - For Boot Guys Only

    *Looks at cool boots, sees hair on pants, looks at avatar* It checks out, a fellow cat owner! :D I can relate to always having some hair on my clothes, no matter how diligent I am with the lint roller.
