Oh really? Ha I didn’t realize that!

You know if they are doing something new with it?

I was going off of this post



I'm assuming they're just referring to color samples or something. My understanding from reading about some of the shell sources a long time ago is that they actually get theirs from Rocado. If you scroll back through their Instagram you can see shell posts going back basically as long as they've had it set up.

Yeah same. I had bought those Lofgren M-45 Horsehides and was disappointed with them (waited 4 months for an exchange and that pair had the same issue...I don’t get the hype for that brand) and these would have filled that itch. Miloh said he’s doing a restock though...hopefully Viberg doesn’t ******* up as it’s been their wont haha.

I wanna see those spice dublins and tan horsebutts.
I kind of wish they would wear their sample pairs then when they release some of these more unique options, you have a great idea of how they will progress. I think the Spice could look really great, or possibly really not so great.

Yeah my concern with Dublin/Essex is how it will crease and how orange are the undertones. That veg tan can get pretty orangey

I greatly prefer Maryam horsebutt over Horween horsebutt - it is more comfortable right off the bat, and has more depth in terms of color and variation. Their leather also smells wonderful. I’d buy a Maryam candle in a heartbeat.

Would love for someone to do a side zip in some Italian horsebutt. Does anyone know of something along those lines on the horizon?
