I got a pair from the sample sale. The leather's very thin, but it's also lined. I've found that the leather on my pair rolls instead of creasing.

Kangaroo leather has the highest tensile strength per square whateveryouwill of any leather commonly used in boot- and shoe-making, so it doesn't need to be thick. That being said, it's not my favorite aesthetically because of its thin-ness and the way it ages. I personally love horse leather, which generally seems to land at the other end of the aesthetic spectrum (if such a thing exists). Bison is great, too.

Just scored these for $400 at local Club Monaco. Hello GYW haha.

They actually fit like a dream.

Yeah, that was also the price for those CM boondockers at the NY sample sample sale.

Which one was it? I don't recall seeing them in Queen St., Eaton Centre, Bloor St. OR Yorkdale the last time I checked. (Granted, it was a good while back). SAs on Bloor didn't have a clue what I was talking about, too.

Boondockers, might have to let these be the go-to for the next week and a half for the Calgary Stampede festivities.

Those boots are great, but that shirt is totally killer too!

Thanks Mike, from Spier & Mackay. Pretty much obsessed with polos and casual shirts from them right now. They have a thread here in SF too: http://www.styleforum.net/t/383376/spier-mackay-official-affiliate-thread

Given where we're at in the States right now with social justice, I'm really curious how Viberg sees our current political/social landscape?

Do they support equality in its fullest?

So a horse and two bison walk into a bar.....
