That guy has some killer wardrobe!

True.

And he LOVES Vibergs.

He has many pairs. All 2030's.

I made that mistake with the Half-Japanes(I am still in mourning)....and the Hopper the first time...ORDER you will not regret it.

@Kahuna75

Did you vote for THE SINISTER OXFORD?

It is basically the Half Japanese but with Black Oil Tan.

Now all you have to do is vote for THE SPYMASTER.

This dude has some nicely aged black and brown waxed flesh 2030's:

They are going to be as killer as the original half Japanese!

With nearly no time left on the clock, right now, the results stand as follows:

1) The horse roughout chelsea    with 8 vote predeposits   

2) The Viberg Spymaster Service Boot  with 6 vote predeposits

3) The Sinister Oxford with 5 vote predeposits - note that this is just one shy of the minimum - we will only put this into production if we have 5+ sales, and which point Styleforum will pick up the cost of the last one.  However, if we have to pick up 2, we'll actually be operating at a loss, and we simply cannot so that.  So, all five of you guys who voted for this need to commit fully to this for it to go through, as it stands.

Get your votes in gentlemen.  

The standard city service boot and the everyday sneaker boot are doing just okay.  We would need 2 additional votes in each one for them to be considered for the preorders.

Cheers.

Fok.

Nice to see the Chelsea firmly in the lead! But folks should keep voting. Want to keep that #1 spot in case a few fallout

 

[budapest12]

^ Agreed. This guy, for one, is not backing out. Can't wait for this. Will be my first pair of Vibergs too.

 

[LA Guy]

Well, it looks like

1) @rydenfan 's tan horse roughout chelsea boot
2) The Sinister Oxford

and.... a dead on tie for 3) between
The Standard City Service Boot
and
The Spymaster.

What to do, what to do? I'm going to let the voting continue until tomorrow midnight. After all, Drew is not going to be in tomorrow to tell me the prices anyway. I'll ask him about all 4 boots, but if we are just allowed to do 3, I dunno, really.

Awesome! I'm going to remain positive that we will be allowed 4! They are all so great!! I need to clear out some closet space!!!

Does anyone have a picture of how the SCSB will look or a close approximation?

Raneleigh posted a bunch of pics of the Natural Waxed Flesh about 10 posts previous.

I'm not sure if those pics are on the 110 or the 2045. The SCSB will be on the 110.

Also, those are on commando. The SCSB will be on a Vibram 705 half sole and Vibram heel. It will look like this except the heel you see is a Cats Paw.


Should be a superstar model.

It will be this boot:



With this half sole and matching heel:



It will also have a pull tab on the back like this:



It's going to be the best version of a natural waxed flesh boot ever made!!

Exactly!

 

[pema]

For visualizing the sole, I still think this is best, even though it is not on a Viberg:

I did not...as I figured was not going to get a shot at one early when this round started. I ordered a few pairs from other makers to fill the need. Small chance I cave though.

 

[motojobobo]

The makeups for this round look very nice, congrats to all of you. Given the prevalence of 110-last in this GMTO, will it be offered in different widths? This ought to broaden the appeal of the GMTO with the narrow-footed out there..
