Damn those are sweet!!

How and where did you customize them?

[vultureparade]

Nice Vibergs, Inquire!

[Crat]

Just in; my weapon of choice. : )

[rayw44]

It's nice to see so much variation so far. The mix of American, English and other styles should make this an interesting contest.

[Double 0 Soul]

Its going to be a unique look your going for there Crat, which foot are you wearing the Whites on? Or is the hangover that severe that you have just forgot about them?

[Crat]

Thehehe, nope I'm in the land of the living again. White's on the left foot, Greens on the right?

Nah, I won't use the white's for the contest. They are my new fishing and outdoor boots. Unfortunately I live in a city so they won't see much regular wear. Not enough for this three year contest anyway.

[Megatron1505]

Three year?

[Crat]

Drunk again, my bad

These make me drool

[Crat]

Me too. Fantastic work boots!

Before Sufu I didn't need any workboots but now I definately need a pair in natural cxl and a pair in a rough out.

Thanks a million. :')

[vultureparade]

Those are beautiful, Crat! What type of leather is the upper?

[Crat]

Thanks! It's grain. better visible here.

Been a member for a good while but haven't posted much. I thought this competition might be a chance to get more involved on the forum.

Working in a sheet metal shop is pretty hard on my footwear. I wanted a black pair of roughouts as these seem to hold up against the scrapes and scratches but decided on these redwings i bought something else instead and will post pics when i get them!

Just throwing this out there...

Between Beatle, Kyle and myself (mainly Beatle) we have come up with a competition tee. I'm aware that this is mainly a different crowd to the HWDC crowd, so as way of market research, would anyone be interested in a tee?

[Ghost Cat]

Was looking for ropers for ages...what sort of soles are on those? Nitrile?

[JHC76]

Mega- I'm always down for another shirt.

They are the "oil resistant cork"

I found these on ebay. they were brown so i dyed them black.

[Crat]

Now this was a bad idea.... : (

More shirts the better...count me in.

[Crat]

[fre-co]

You've only had them like 10 days and you have already worn them 6 times? How are you going to last until May???

[Crat]

Good thing you posted that fre-co though as I thought the kickoff was today

[Megatron1505]

Contest opened up again, we'll stop at 100 promise

[Megatron1505]

Just had word that my boots will be another 2 - 3 weeks, they were ordered on January 28th. Just out of interest for all you who are waiting.

[JHC76]

I ordered mine jan 27th and they came in the other day and are on their way to me for additional reference. Guess I was lucky.

[Megatron1505]

Unless Kyle is keeping my expectations in check for me
