Service Boot 2040 CF Stead Whiskey Phoenix

All our Viberg Service Boots are on a single E width, we suggest sizing down one full size from your standard sneaker size or brannock measurement. Consider a half-szie down only if you have very wide feet as the 2040 last accomodates higher volume feet.

Viberg's Service Boot is directly based on their original model, first produced in 1931. A similar pattern was also used by multiple nations as a standard issue military boot during WWII, however Viberg's quintessential Service Boot is modeled after the Canadian military's WWII Service Boot pattern.

C. F. Stead have quickly established themselves as one of our top choices for waxy bovine leathers alongside the suedes and roughouts that we would consider their bread and butter, and their Phoenix hides are no exception. Like all of the tannery's offerings, Phoenix is an environmentally conscious veg-tan, completely tanned without any chrome or chemicals.

Instead, the tannery absolutely pumps this thick bovine hide full of rich oils and waxes, granting it a ridiculously pleasing range of deep warm brown tones throughout the upper, while on the functional spectrum the same oils and waxes simultaneously provide the hide with excellent durability and waterproofing. This is one of Stead's toughest and longest lasting leathers - perfect for getting you through any season here in Canada with minimal attention, but is also supremely wearable in other climates and indoor settings, no question. The Viberg Service Boot is as versatile as it gets.
