October sure came fast. Bourbon on the way. At least orange binding was advertised. Still trying to decide if I can get used to the Ivywood. Way to mess up a perfect shell color.

I've tried really hard to find something good to say or think about the orange binding - and JF christ it is not really possible. What were they even thinking?

Stumbled across this post on Reddit where someone stopped by the Viberg popup in Soho (beginning of March) and saw the Ivywood Service Boots on display for Pre-Order. Gotta say, the French Binding being a dark brown makes a significant difference in the overall appearance.

Kind of the point of the boot is that color - consistently.

Before seeing the brown binding right now I didn't mind the orange that much, but wow they messed up. If I had bought a pair I don't know what I would do.

Why does orange binding even exist? And why does viberg have so much of it? Def a conspiracy going on.
