except for the smoke kudu and the 2 service boots those are "UGLY" looking boots!

I am with you on that.... I was really hoping Viberg would keep going on their service boots more as that's what got them bigger in this scene in the first place, I have been waiting for months for just a black cap toe service boot.

The samples we exhibit at a trade show have basically zero do with with what you can expect to see on viberg.com or what will end up in most shops. We don't operate like a normal brand that shows a seasonal collection and then manufactures exactly that. Every order for every store is completely custom. The sampling process is an important exercise for us as far as how new materials can be incorporated and how our production methods can handle things and adapt. Rather than this being like a runway show where you are getting a look at things to come, this is more like a showcase of some unexpected combinations that will very likely never be seen again. We don't show a ton of basic Service Boots because the stores that we work with are already familiar with them. We've got a lot of stuff in the pipe line for viberg.com though and i'll try to post a sort of summary of what to expect over the next 4-6 months shortly.

Also bear in mind this is a tradeshow where the majority of the attendees are buyers. And a lot of the boots getting flak were really awesome in person.

I'd wait for plain Boondocker R/O Natural CXL on 2030 last and Dainite sole.
Q

The interesting quality of Cxl is not on the roughout, so I'm not sure about using that expensive leather, but the other specs seem doable.

Well a meteoric success can intoxicate and get a person very high! It is true that Viberg Service Boots are "the best" looking boots out there. But whoever designed this ******, ugly looking Viberg should be sent to Mars

and i guess they will price this for $700+++

. The reality was for a dozen of new model they are introducing we are lucky to see 1 (one) "decent" looking product.
Looking at this make me proud of my Viberg Boots.

ben2t, read what Guy wrote above.
"The samples we exhibit at a trade show have basically zero do with what you can expect to see on viberg.com or what will end up in most shops."
Translation:
You will likely not see this boot for sale.
