Viberg Scout Boot in Dark Olive Waxed Flesh: $785
Just a few sizes remain in this Scout Boot, which comes on the 2030 last with Horween Olive Waxed Flesh. These boots feature a 360 storm welt and Vibram Morflex wedge soles.
Nicks Boots x Rose Anvil ND2: $TBA (Releasing Saturday July 30th at 12PM EST)
The sequel to the original Nicks x Rose Anvil collab, the ND1, is almost here. This time around, they’ve built a boot with 1964 Brown leather (plus a smidge of brown waxed flesh) that features double (Double! You beautiful maniac!) Rose Anvil-designed lineman patches for some rugged flair. This makeup will be limited to only 500 pairs…which sounds like a lot! But they sold out in like 72 hours last time. Sign up for Rose Anvil’s email list on their website for access to the drop.
Alden x Leffot Longwing Blucher in Black Shell Cordovan: $850 (Pre-Order)
Okay, maybe Tom Haverford’s ambition to walk on red carpet lit’rally everywhere was a bit much, but you gotta admit the red carpet insoles were a fun idea. Did Leffot feel inspired by Parks and Rec with constructing this makeup? Eh, who’s to say. You can’t deny the swagger of these Barrie-lasted LWBs, though. (Pre-orders end this Sunday!)
Alden x Leffot 405 Indy Boot with Commando Soles: $665 (Pre-Order)

Alden x Lost & Found Indy Boot in Reverse Navy Silksport: $677
Now this is interesting…this Silksport leather is actually a full-grain suede, which L&F has decided to flip inside out to show off the smooth side. Built on the Trubalance last, these Indys feature a 270 welt and commando soles.
TLB Mallorca Reverse Stitch Toe Derby in Black Hatch Grain: $387

Truman Boot Co. Cap Toe Boot in Bullrush Phoenix: $460
Bullrush Phoenix! Helluva name. This waxed bovine leather from C.F. Stead comes on a brand-new pattern from Truman, which is crafted on the 79 last with a 360 flat welt and their proprietary Eugene rubber soles.
Alden x Ealdwine “Fayetteville” Saddle Oxfords in Snuff/Navy Suede: $595
New run of these two-tone suede shoes just landed at Ealdwine! Made on the Barrie last with a 270 flat welt and double leather soles. Nobody does saddle shoes like Ealdwine.
