Any word on the current MTO shipment?


Everyone is out at Pitti. No way @LA Guy can focus on this currently. I'm sure he will post an update as soon as he is back or has heard something from the factory.

My uneducated guess is 3-4 weeks away from completion

I am back, but that was the first week of the schedule. I have heard nothing back from Guy or Kate, but the way it usually works is that a vendor tells a guy like me when the shipment is ready, and how I'd like it sent, pay the final invoice, etc... I know that our rather larger order was in production, back in December. I am sure that I will hear once the shipment is ready. Everyone wants to get these things out the door! Fast turnaround is in everyone's interest.

Cheers,

Fok.

Any word back related to the chromepak? Obviously, drooling a bit over the idea of the dark coffee chromepak, but I figured I'd ask.

If anyone wants to sell their chromepak spot to me I'd turn tricks on the street. 7-8D

We dont have much info yet on the chomepak yet. Seeing as they havent even been finalized, you very well may just be able to get in on them when we do place orders.

I actualy have a question other than timing. Will the Chromepak GTMO and the 3sixteen chromepak basically be the same model? Anyone know what the planned difference between teh two will be (assuming we get the coffee chromepak for our leather)?

I was actually wondering that. If the 3sixteen version is supposed to be a copy of Andrew's brown harness boots, they will be almost identical if not already.

-Dark coffee chromepak
-Brogue toe cap
-Dainite sole
-Unstructured toe
-Brass eyelets
-Contrast black tongue

Pic of Andrew's boots when they were new as reference.

Any way I could put myself down for a potential chromepak spot (going off your previous comment)? I just recently ended a cop freeze and would LOVE to get in on that makeup...

Are you guys talking about a new 3Sixteen boot? The last Chrompak they did was olive, correct?

Rumor has it that 3Sixteen will use the coffee chromepak posted on their next service boot colab with Viberg. I dont believe anything is confirmed though, outside of us knowing that olive is out of stock.

Patiently waiting for these to ship so we can start talking about a 310 last plain toe GMTO. Talk of this in horsehide in the regular Viberg thread.

Ah yes, this is one of the boots that made me first fall in love with Glen Viberg. A beauty. Horsehide seems not to be much available, and if not then ebony latigo might be a good option. A similar look to this darker brown CXL, but likely more durable.
