    Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

    I have a natural chromepak belt, I'll take a picture of it compared to my Natural CXL service boots when I get home. The CXL looks much better than the Chromepak and it's not even close. The Natural Chromepak is just flat and has weird tones compared to the CXL.

    The Official Alden Thread for 2016 - Share reviews, sizing, advice, and photos.

    I've been debating those the last few days, but the medallion on the Plaza last version from ShoeMart looks kind of off to me. Looks incomplete towards the front of the toe and also a bit like an illustration of the female reproductive system you'd see in an anatomy text book. The medallion on...

    The Shell Cordovan, non-Alden Shoe and Boot Thread

    Yup, Rancourt will resole most of their shoes (aside from only sneakers I think) that you order through them. If they just need a shine I brush off any dirt then hit them with some Venetian shoe cream followed by brushing. Every couple months I also treat them with Lexol to condition...

    The Shell Cordovan, non-Alden Shoe and Boot Thread

    Think there's also medium cognac, which is essentially the same as Ravello for Non-Alden makers. That's what these Carminas were called anyways:

    The Shell Cordovan, non-Alden Shoe and Boot Thread

    Not sure if the Carminas are Natural or saddle, think they might just be Natural shell with a slight finish on them. Haven't actually worn either yet because I haven'd decided if I'm going to keep both. If I do, will end up wearing them with pretty much the same outfits.

    The Shell Cordovan, non-Alden Shoe and Boot Thread

    Best I can do for now, crappy lighting right now since it's dark out. Haven't heard of Rancourt calling it Tan, but these are Caramel, which was the lightest color available. They've also aged a bit. Not sure if the Carmina's are Natural or Saddle. They were supposed to be natural but...

    Carmina Shoes - Definitive Thread (reviews, advice, sizing, etc...) - official thread.

    This guy who organized it with Jaime posted this last night: "Jaime let me know a couple weeks ago that they'd received the shell for the saddle shell full brogues and were entering production at that time. From that point, he was hoping to ship within 30 days, so only a couple more weeks!"...

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Just for shell though. Carmina uses one piece for non shell, not sure why meermin wouldn't do that also. Can understand that somewhat for shell.
