Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

It's on the 2030 last. 10 blind eyelets. Fully lined in English Kip (first time we have offered a fully lined shell boot). Brogue Toe Cap. Dainite Sole. Natural Midsole.

The toe box has a very thin material in it that is a nice midway between our structured and unstructured boots. It will maintain the shape of the last without interrupting any of the natural lines. It's soft enough that you can push it down with your thumb but it will bounce back into place. It's something we are using on most of our boots now unless we want them purposely collapsed.

Payment will be due in full. Basically it will appear as an item on our shop and you will add it to cart and check out just like normal. The only difference is you will be able to choose any size and the boots will not ship immediately. We won't be offering any modifications to the design and unfortunately we will not be reserving any pairs. Official release time will be Noon (pacific) on Friday.

Thanks for trying. In other threads, that person has already been identified as a lame wannabe-provocateur troll, a veritable waste of your time. Many have found it helpful to simply block him and other very silly little idiots.

Speaking of aniline green, today my wife kissed me as I left for work and noted that the green stows I was wearing were her favorite pair among my collection. She even through in her best Uncle Mac (from the Alden thread) impression, wishing that I would "wear them in great health." Among a collection of over 30 pairs of shoes, many of them shell cordovan, she likes one of my less expensive pairs. Go figure! And she wasn't the only one today feeling the green. 3 random women in different places today stopped me and said that they loved the green boots.

Got my hikers in today and boy these are built like tanks might take a bit of breaking in but the fit is a right on with a think sock.

My only complaint and a tiny one at that first two are d ring and then three speed hooks and then back again to a d ring kind of a pain at the end but could just be me

its amazing how quickly viberg blew up. it seems like before the sample sale viberg was on the bottom of SWD now its always up top, yet still managed to retain its SWD charm

Those look great. I'm weighing an investment in a pair of old-school hikers, maybe these, maybe Paraboot Avoriaz. Would want a smooth leather though. I've got a very useful pair of Garmont in nubuck that haven't aged very well aesthetically given that I apply waterproofing every 6 months.

I think you'll be happier with the last D-ring. My longstanding complaint about most hiking boots (and I do hike, a lot) is that the last speed hook isn't very secure, and if you catch the lace on a root or stick you'll undo the whole shebang.

Wear them in good health, nephew!

@Michael Haines
 don't you need to wear thicker socks as you'll go hike? I assume that the boots have enough cushion inside though.

Boot has plenty of cushion and I will wear Variety of diffrent thinkness as needed. What I worry when trying a hiker is can I wear a think sock when it's needed and this did it well for me.

You had chance to wear, ordered and given thats its a hiker and will use for that have concerns about fit ? Went with my "Boondocker" sizing.

As far as wear goes, the rough out IMO looks even better the more it wears. Have had roughout in hikers be for and even with out dubbing they hold up well.

Thanks.

Also a fan of Paraboot...
