I dont know exactly what brooklyn clothing is releasing next week but yesterday on their website, if you went to the viberg section there was a "Brown Waxed Flesh Scout Boot" listed with no images. Disappeared today.

2040 is arguably best last depending on your instep. Also someone please buy the 8.5 toscanellos from DR please. I'm literally putting away all my boots for the summer and shouldn't add a pair just to sit in a box for 4 months.
You should buy that. (I’ll never stop!)

If you’re still thinking about it then you must want them.
Of course I want them, its unstructured and unlined HB on ridgeway in a decent colorway. I need to make purchases that I can wear to the office, I am going back to the office, at some point, and I cannot wear 2040 HB with a suit and tie very well....

But I'm gonna do the S&S black 2040s. I physically don't have space for all these boots at this point. I've got a parkhurst boot and shoe coming, meermin shell boot, renav shell shoe, ealdwine osteroy indy, and honestly I am probably forgetting something else coming as well. I need to buy shelves. That's what I need to buy, or move to a larger space to accommodate all these pairs.

I thought you were done with black boots? They are HBs though, so I get it…

Same. If Viberg released a stitchdown derby/Halkett in a dark color and matching stitching on 2020, I would be in.

It could happen!!

These are the last black boots and I've been planning on them for a while. I think the only black boot I would buy after this point would be a triple black rerun, but I don't foresee that happening.

We are getting more halketts, the pattern is here to stay. I think you'll be waiting on stitchdown for a while unless we can convince a stockist to do a run, say vitello/1071 horsebutt, unstructured and unlined, all eyelets, tonal stitching, and brown ridgeway? Oh I do want a cap toe on it though, I actually like the folded captoe on the 2020 last.

You're not gonna see an unlined Halkett. Also, I love an unstructured toe but not for an office boot.

Partially structured and partially lined?
