IHTB-BJM - Brown Roughout Jobmaster
-
The general consensus is to do nothing except brush out mud, dust and grime. Using waterproofing, wax etc changes the finish of the leather drastically. A suede brush/eraser is all you need. That’s the genius of roughout, very little maintennance, even in tough conditions.
I have a pair of roughout Viberg boots in a similar colour to these that I’ve used for three winters, for everything from daily use to mountain hiking. I’m away from home for a few days but can post a pic next week. They look great though.

thank you for information, maybe my next boots going to be made from roughout leather ::)

I wear my Roughout Vibergs in rain, mud, and dirt. The eraser is great for little dust and markings and the brush gets the leather pretty darn clean. I did spray wish Red Wing waterproofing spray with no discoloration.

Roughout has been the easiest leather to clean and maintain of all my boots. Just rub/ brush dust and mud out.

If I wanted to get a custom build of this boot, what would be the best way to go about that? Go through IH or contact WESCO directly? I watched their video on doing the measurements and it looks like something my wife and I could handle hopefully without screwing up.

I would go directly to @Chris at Wesco in this case. But beware, Wesco do not stock these soles and have to be provided….
