So I've lurked for a long time but I made an account to put myself down for Option 5. I can send any verification needed that I am serious about purchasing. Thanks.

When does voting close? And when would we need to know sizing by?

Lots of help in the Viberg thread if you need it.


Looks like the Navy Inferno RO Scout Boot, has made the minimum 6.

@LA Guy
Got an inquiry re: ScotchGrain Horsebutt__ a friend is asking if the leather is dyed through.

 

[LA Guy]

I'll ask. Sorry, dealing with personal (house) problems today. Sigh. Kill me now.

@LA Guy , can we put a time stamp on this voting and payments to keep this trucking along?

I would suggest we close voting EOD Monday, and make payments due EOD Thursday? I'm sure the successful builds would like to get them this fall. I know your slammed so it up to you, just wanted to keep the train rolling.

I agree with you on the timeline. Some home (non-forum) related emergencies popped up, and are monopolizing my time right now, but I'll try to make this happen.

Sorry for the delays. guys, really.

Cheers,

Fok.

Can someone answer some questions for me?

Having trouble picturing the 2030 navy inferno scout.
Is "stacked leather midsole, leather midsole and wedge heel, leather wedge"
all the same thing? It'll look like 3sixteens 2040 service boots w/mini ripple?
will tongue be at least partially gusseted?

payment due in full this coming thursday? how much are these make ups? i skimmed the thread and don't see anything on pricing for any make ups

 

[trevorplease]

Damn did I single handedly kill this thread?

 

[CanadaCal]

Well the enthusiasm, and general chit chat over this thread has really waned this season, which is too bad, but it is what it is.

Looks like the Navy RO Scout can proceed forward.

It also may be worth 1 last call on the slipper and service boot for an additional day. Trim the herd to 3 makeups?

The rest don't seem to have enough interest to go forward.

@LA Guy will have to provide pricing, but I would assume you can base it on what Viberg sells a similar model on their website for. Sometimes these SF makeups are even a bit less.

As far as I understand it, it will have the stacked leather midsole, which creates a thicker "wedge" moving towards the heel of the boot. Just like the 3Sixteen models. In terms of the tongue, no idea.
And you didn't kill it, it was dead a few weeks ago...

@LA Guy will have to get back to you guys on how to move this forward.


Maybe next round will be more successful.

I'm definitely interested in the navy inferno but didn't vote because of the uncertainty of details

The stacked leather midsole does not result in a thicker sole per se, but in a sole with no foam wedge, but with a cool looking leather wedge instead.

The pricing we still have to figure out, but it always includes shipping worldwide, and typically, nearly always comes to under what you could, if you could get them, the same or lower than what they are sold for at viberg.com

We'll trim to three models and put them up for sale. Sorry, it's been nuts. Apart from it being my birthday, we have a mice problem here, and the house is being painted, and I am getting pulled about 100 different ways. The joys of my life.
