Perhaps derby style fur line boot on T last?

I could do a chukka or possibly a field boot type.

In terms of leather my thoughts would go to something dark brown with a rough texture (perhaps Deer or Bison - how good are these in the rain or snow?)

I would go for a country calf option. We also have new a leather called “Rasputin” that is quite rough, a boot in this is coming out soon. Here is a sample picture (in the wrong color, too red). The color I have ordered now is more dark brown.

Love the texture. Those in a dark brown would be amazing

I agree. It looks very nice. It actually reminds me of Tärnsjö but with less natural scuffs in it. This Rasputin leather is also also vegetable tanned, which could be argued is better from an environmental aspect.

I would prefer the field boot over chukka. Rasputin leather looks great.

@Leaves is or will norvegese chain be available as an option for boots?

Hey Roger, as a fellow GTAer, what's your recent experience been like ordering from Skoak in regards to taxes and duties?

I always request delivery by post - I'd say I dodge more than I get hit, but there's no certainty. Except if you select delivery by courier - then you will almost certainly get hit.

Sorry to bud in, but also a fellow GTAer here. Last few times with CP i got hit with taxes and duties. Not sure if this makes a difference, but i've had skoak mail to my friends before (condo and another at a house 5 mins away) and they've always escaped taxes/duties. I would say avoided taxes/duties more than 50% of the time
