Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

[honestpanda]

Yard work calls for the Viberg x DR Roughout Ivy Street Bobcats today. These are built like the proverbial "brick ****-house." Also, the best smelling, most aromatic leather item I have ever owned. I like to leave them out just as incense. Ya, I'm wearing shorts, it hot today! In case your wondering, my wife kinda "suggested" I don't leave the house this way :/

So bummed to learn Viberg is retiring the Bobcat. I much prefer it over the Scout pattern and was waiting for a stockist to drop something worth getting in it but never happened.

So they are “retiring” the bobcat and Oxford pattern? Really thought that was a joke...

Where was it reported the bobcat is retiring?

Haha. You didn't like the other "influencer" makeups?

I'm more just thinking of ticho's other Viberg MTOs, i.e. the Vibergs that (at least I'm aware) he designed. This boot to me looks pretty in line with something like those done via Withered Fig, like I'm just not really that surprised at what the result is.

Oh right, that wholecut boot. I'm surprised that was made into a full run.

Haha yeah hmm, idk I might have a theory why a shop would select a niche Instagram influencer's MTO as the winner of their "contest", but that would be a digression.

Like this boot though, for me the wholecut was just a couple of spec changes from being really good.

I’d prefer the first party to directly announce something like this via a blog post.

edit - only 145. See no way a tracking down rumors effectively ?

I’m sure we are all interested in hearing about your digression. What do you mean?

I read that as WF deciding not to use that model anymore, not Viberg.
