Burgundy horsehide. Not sure what tannery it's from. I wanted something a little thinner for these because there was some concern about room in the instep building a sidezip on the 2040

Nice, I think that's either Maryam or Guidi.

The DR boondockers remind me of the old Context Clothing make up in crust Horsebutt.

Ha. Mine are on the way to get that exact sole treatment.

Out of the running from the start as far as I can tell. No size 7.5.

Do you still send your stuff to the guys at Pekin Shoe Repair?

Wish those were plain toe.

These look bad to me compared to the other Shelby makeups. A very chunky version of a boot that was already basically the chunkiest 2030.

Agreed. Doesn’t help that all black boots can look very military surplus.

We're on a Bobcat binge because for some reason, we've got an inkling the Bobcat style might become a rare gem going forward.

Was hoping to see more stockists offer the bobcat, would be disappointing if Viberg restricted this make up from their retailers.

Looks like a great makeup. Will likely pass since I don’t want to take a chance on the sizing.

I like this pre-order model. I wish more retailers would do this.

Someone in here has them... is it you?!

Yes, I do have this pair. Not generally a fan of all black boots, but the contrast stitching and natural midsole combined with the brass eyelets and the chamois texture really works on this pair.

Anyone else take same size 1035 and 2030? I have the last run of Marvington II and was wondering if anyone who has both Marvington II and these bobcats can verify they had to go half a size smaller on these bobcats compared to the Marvington II.

I’m thinking I should stick to the same size I got in Marvington II since they’re both on 1035.
