    The Official Viberg B/S/T Thread

    Nice. Wish they were a size 10. That’s the one pair of boots that could convince me I need another pair of brown vibergs. Curious, why the rubber topys? I feel like those double leather soles will last a lifetime before needing a resole.

    And about $1050 in 2020. A nearly 70% increase in 4 years. Labor has def gone up, but their boots haven’t all increased by 70% and I’d be surprised if shell costs that much more. I think it’s just supply/demand. They aren’t making much shell, and it’s selling out fast in these small runs.

    Still selling at this price. They seem to know something. Wild that people will pay that much though.

    Crap my bad, sorry. I blame the UI, looked like everything was in stock and just checked a couple.

    Might have been a glitch. Looks like all sizes are in stock.

    No question viberg shell pricing is tough. I think the days of questionable qa/qc are behind us though. I can’t recall the last time someone posted about an issue.

    I dunno, they look cool to me. I didn’t like the drywear ones, but these are great. Sold out in most sizes now too.

    Sounds like you sized right to me. I’m 11.25 D on the left, 10.5E on the right, and wear a 10E. Vibergs can vary a bit and some of my boots are a little snug, while some are a little looser. I adjust with sock thickness. They will prob stretch to feel great, but trust your gut. Some people like...

    Until they decide to do it again, either on a limited run or just regularly. I’ve learned to never believe viberg when they say something is no longer made a certain way.

    Marrkt sample sale live: https://www.marrkt.com/collections/viberg-archive-sale Some solid options across a number of sizes. Many sold out already, but good makeup’s remain.

    Those are great. Look a bit like the split horsebutt from a few years back.

    So just a classic pair of brown shoes, eh?

    Feels a lot like a pricing mistake, in spite of their defensive move there. And if it's not a mistake, I think they won't sell, and they'll realize is actually was a pricing mistake.

    I suspect I may be in the minority, but I'm liking a lot of these. The wedge soles look great with the kangaroo leather, the sneakers have never looked better, and the suede is a great classic spring color. I don't know why they made Pachena Bays for S/S, but lots I'd wear here. The only part...

    In my experience, 2030 has been getting wider, not narrower. However, more than anything, I find that viberg fit can vary depending on leather, lining, welting, day of the week, and which way the wind was blowing when they were made. It’s relatively marginal, but perhaps enough variance to...

    Funny, I never noticed what a difference the leather stack makes in terms of heel height. The stance doesn’t seem off on either of these though relative to the pair @Crizzlelovesyou posted.

    Yep, picked them up off another member at the beginning of Covid. Love this leather. The heel cup has an internal edge that rubs hard, which is exacerbated by the leather stack, which is stiff as a board from the factory. You can see they’ve gotten wear, but I’m still breaking that sole in...

    Thanks for sharing the pics. I see what you mean about the stance. That’s not really the case with the pair I was mentioning, so I may need to just keep breaking them in…

    Can you say more about the effect or share pics? I have two pairs on mini ripple. One is great and comfy, the other I can hardly wear without getting crazy blisters due to heel rub. I love the uncomfortable ones so I can’t bring myself to offload (they are matte brown from miloh shop), and have...

    Halkett on 2030 with brown shell and a leather sole? That’s about as good of a combo as I could ask for. $1544 for Vibergs is a bit too steep for me though. Maybe they’ll make one in calf leather in the future.
