Damn ... These WitheredFig Tanks are awesome. They will take a while to break-in.

Mushroom Chamois might as well be my favorite Roughout material.

Bold statement! So many roughout options it’s hard to pick a favorite. Maybe it’s because it’s in my collection but the 3sixteen navy latigo is my favorite.

Mine came in today, too. They're gorgeous and I was wrong to initially cancel my order. I had planned to take some neatsfoot oil to them to darken a bit, but I am actually really happy with the color as is. I am going to do a tobacco chamois 145 oxford at the next MTO so it seems redundant to darken these.

Agreed. Tobacco Chamois is an awesome leather as well and the two should live well together.

Standard & Strange x Viberg waxed deer.

I think these flew under the radar of 3rd party Viberg releases.

Received an email from Viberg this afternoon. My two pairs are complete, but the used the wrong leathers on both heel pulls. Here’s a sample of what they sent to me, what do you guys think?!

It looks like they didn’t reverse the leather. Looks fine to me but it’s more of what you can live with.

So it isn’t a matter of them replacing that section of leather? They’d have to remake the whole boot?
Oh my bad I have no idea how they would go about it. I just wouldn't want to wait on it to change the pull tab whether it's 2 weeks or 2 months. Thats just me.
