Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

Those look nice. What are they?

I'm sure there are a lot of you who can identify every Viberg makeup ever made in anyone's photo, in any light, with any camera. I am not among those who can.

For those of us who can't, then, can you kindly identify what you're showing us when you're showing us?

Oh yeah, sorry. They're 2020 last stitchdown derby shoes in stone oiled calf on dainite. Viberg's higher SPI really works for a stitchdown derby boot/shoe I think and I wish they would do it more often.

Well, they arrived. Essentially the same cap toe issue. What do you all think? Contact Thomas?

They're ultimately your boots but I definitely would, personally

They’re out of the leather so they’re offering a partial refund if you keep them or a full refund for a return.

Great to know, thanks!

 

[Mrfuzon]

Such a waste of beautiful leather!

 

[bry2000]

Yeah, really a shame. Leather looks great.

They’ll make their way to the sample sale for cheap probably

 

[thewinedown]

Curious to see how much they offer to knock off the price.

 

[Crizzlelovesyou]

In theory you could take the partial refund, try to color match and dye the bad brogueing and then wax coat it to get close to the shinki glaze. I'm not that skilled though so someone with more practice would know more. I know some people do treat and clean brogueing though. Its not structural, just a shame and not acceptable for boots at this price. I'm really sorry this happened to everyone though that really sucks.

So much for Brett's quality control initiatives. Same old Viberg.

Their broguing tools would have a bit more longevity if every new makeup didn't have a brogue cap toe

Here’s the response I just got.
