Viberg

Interesting mclain, I'm a 10.5-11 in similar sneaker and boot sizes.
Yeah superfuzz, that's a large part of what makes boots so tricky; everyone has a different feel for it.
Also has a lot to do with socks and specific parts of your foot (like mclain says, high arches or flat feet, wide feet, narrow feet etc.!).

the man has great taste in footwear. i've never really been a fan of this collab, but Jestre makes them look damn good

Not sure if anyone posted these yet.
I'm not a fan of the blue one's they're releasing but the leather on these is amazing.
3SIXTEEN AND VIBERG’S “DECADE COLLECTION” SERVICE BOOT
"The boot was designed by 3sixteen and produced in collaboration with Canadian bootmakers Viberg. Made of Horween Chromepak leather with brass eyelets, leather laces and a dainite sole, the shoe is durable enough for tough winters."
I've seen this Chromepak once before at a men's show at the Chippewa booth. Natehate was with me.
If I remember correctly, it's all the best qualities of CXL and all the best qualities of traditional hard wearing leathers. Simply amazing. Super thick and super supple.
There were a couple other nice colors as well. I think there was a really cool olive drab color. -
Yeah, those are pretty beautiful.

Close but no Banana. These are some that I discussed with Morgan before we (Tat) came up with the idea of the Wild Ones. They are pretty similar though (except this pair is horse - sorry)…...

Those are looking crazy nice
