Nothing new, but I thought to share. Living in Europe makes it difficult to get your hands on make-up's like this. Although sold as "used", the leather has almost no creases. I think I was very lucky..

look great. The new run of these came out more green than brown. Yours look better imo.

Hey guys, from anyone who has purchased recently on Grailed - are buyers charged sales tax? As many of you may know, this has become a thing on eBay now. Of course I am looking at 'bergs there and just wondering. Thanks!

I have and was not charged tax. Which is odd honestly. You’re required to remit taxes per state, county, district guidelines. It might just be passed along to the seller as a fee.

HI All. I purchased this pair of Viberg's (my 5th pair) on Grailed and have never had to deal with a heel issue. These re-done heels, by previous owner, are a 1/4 inch higher than my other boots and wow, they are too high for my walk. Besides feeling too high they cause my feet to push forward and get crushed in the toebox. Please let me know what I should be doing about this? I'm sure a cobbler can fix but I'd like to approach one with some knowledge about what I should be asking. Also, what the costs generally are for this procedure. Thanks in advance.

Wow. That is a bad resole job. Where are you located?

Holy schnike. I'm not even sure how something like that happens. At the very least, you've given us some attention-grabbing "before" photos, and an anticipated, must-see set of "after" photos to come.

Wishing you the best of luck turning those back into Vibergs.
