Viberg
-
Can't give any info on quality or comparisons between Wesco and Viberg, but I'm fairly certain Chromexel is a type of leather tannage trademarked by Horween.
-
CXL is a proprietary chrome tanned leather from Horween in Chicago. Its great leather, but it will "age" faster than normal leather. Its much softer and pliable right out of the box and requires less break in than normal leather does as well. Its great though, just not sure it would be my first choice for an engineer boot.
-
Davito, those are beautiful…i adore horsehide engineers as they only get better with age in an ideal world it would be a custom option for either viberg or wesco. unfortunately I haven't found any horsehide offerings still available in size 12 US buco offered a horsehide engineer but it went up only to a size 10, same with becks, and wesco...

I see that there has been some interest on here for the Viberg "Boondockers" boot that was a special makeup for Nick Horween. Brett Viberg has offered to do this boot as a special makeup with Styleforum, based on strong interest expressed by members there. Have a look at the thread, and jump on board!
