It was a publishing error. Prices are now the same as other non shell boots.

You can resole them. You can also brush (alot) and get rid of some of the scratches probably.View attachment 2150241
Hi guys — I am new to viberg and shells, if you could tell me your thoughts on these two points:
1 — im currently on a three week long trip in asia. Ive been walking about 10km everyday, wearing these once every 2.5 days. Im worried now i might be putting too much strain on the boots, especially as they cant be resoled due to the stitchdown construction (or am i wrong?). Id like them to last at least 10 years — is it reasonable to expect that?
2 — are these scratches permanent or can i get rid of them with a good brush? I didnt bring one with me. Also, any idea why the top part of the vamp seems to be a diff shade than the part near the outsole? These are mahogany shell.
Thanks guys!!
Love them. How old are they? I have a pair with French binding and I found my round laces were chewing into the binding after only a few months. Had to switch to flat laces which I don’t like as much.View attachment 2151079
Same boots as before, after some much needed conditioning, done at Union Works in Ginza, Tokyo.
I bought them used from a user here on the forum. I think he must have worn them about 3 times, and this is a model made in 2020 (the year, not the last) mahogany shellLove them. How old are they?
