There's already quite a few brands making cheap approximations of Viberg/Visvim footwear.

I don't think the skepticism is 100% reasonable here. Greats was able to convince a bunch of male customers that a relatively unknown brand with budget goods can offer a similar value proposition to established luxury brands, and with huge success.
And from where are you basing your point that men will only buy into a Vans-alike or a workboot? Everlane's women's shoes aren't even that outlandish. A penny loafer, sandals, and slip-ons with a wedge sole? These are pretty classic shapes. Any of the tried-and-true mens' shoe shapes can fit into Everlane's brand story.
Honestly, Everlane just needs to reach a point where it can start testing men's products in small batches. Something just needs to happen for the company to believe menswear is an area worth investing in.

HP sees the future crashing toward them and decides to stick their head in the sand. HP's got no cloud, so they're fucked.

Best rock power ballads of all time, in no particular order.
1. Don't you know what you got (until it's gone) - Cinderella
2. November Rain (Guns 'n' Roses)
...
I've had a few drinks and a hamburger. Ironic listening is not an option.
