this is them vs Armagnac, it’s kind of subtle but they definitely have more of an olive hue to them

Hard to believe those are dark cognac, they look like the ivy wood ones. Dark cognac on the website looks like a darker color 8, very odd. Then again, Vibergs stock photos have always been questionable

The Color 2 came out really well, but goddamn I couldn’t have asked for a better shade on the Dark Cognac. Pics aren’t great, delivered late in the day and it was cloudy.

Dayymmmnnnn. Those both look great. Did you (or anyone) hear from Viberg or did they just show up at your door? I'm in on the color 2's and haven't heard a thing.

Ivywood is actually closer to, or rather, uh, identical to, Armagnac. Here’s Zeb Shoes pic of his Ivywood shell, but you’ll notice something interesting on the underside of the right one...

well I was already talking to Viberg about combining shipping on 2 other pairs with the Color 2, so I knew these were coming. Otherwise you just get the DHL email when they ship

Because I know that you all are interested:

If you buy through our link, we get a bit of commission, helps this place run a little better, a little more smoothly, etc...

I want to see a stitchdown ultraviolet service boot. Or some other more interesting shells. Still disappointed I skipped out on the Old Bronze.

I wouldn’t be. Those boots, the mahogany run from that time, and the previous amaretto are tied for first place in the worst Viberg toe caps of all time.
