Here is a picture of the green loden
as you can see it is extremely green and way too far for my tastes. AFAIK olive chromepak is no more as horween ran out of the chemicals and doesn't plan on making more (if someone at viberg has said other wise please speak up). Viberg even said olive chromepak was dead stock when they made the 3sixteen colab.
I am personally more a fan of a tad more matt coloring btw. a super dark brown mat finish would be my ideal, but I need something that can take a beating.
fwiw, I think that the chromepak that Viberg will be receiving is called "brown chromepak", or at least that's what Guy said on the phone, and we had a pretty clear connection. I have not yet seen it, but I would assume that brown means a little more brown than olive.
Yes, and maybe. That stacked heel would be available to other stockists afterwards. Personally, I would feel bad about trying to get in too early, since Johan and Andrew paid for the R&D, and they are good guys besides that. I think that the first boot we make with that sole, we'd contribute a fraction of the proceeds to a charity of their choice. Sorta pay it forward and all of that.Bummer. That was a seriously cool boot. That stacked heal was gorgeous enough for me to consider tossing my hat into the ring for my own pair.
So it's a 3Sixteen boot that's possibly coming out in the future?
