Took these recently. Only 2 years old (but bought from @zachthespook so probably older).

Stone Oiled Calf. Vibergs really do age like wine.

So I’ve been avoiding owning a pair of the classic brown/chestnut RM Williams for a while now, because everyone in Australia owns a pair and I feel like if I’m going to collect boots as a hobby I’d prefer to have ones that are that extra bit special, but at the same time a darker brown pair of Chelsea boots would be nice as they go with everything.

Well just found a pair of Viberg Chelsea’s for $900 AUD off this Boxing Day, and jumped on them. The only issue is they have a leather sole and there’s no returns if they don’t fit. So fingers crossed.

How do Viberg leather soles go? The only info is it’s a French leather sole.

Are you sure it wasn’t French binding? I thought that Viberg sources their leather soles from Spain?

I seem to recall they source their leather soles from Bastin & Fils tannery, which is owned by J.M. Weston. I have a pair of leather soled Westons (and owned a pair of leather soled Vibergs) and they are very hard wearing.

Oh, nice! I didn’t realize that? Thanks for the info. I have quite a few pairs from Weston too! Thanks!

Viberg switched to JM Weston's leather soles very recently. The oiled double leather sole (which was ******* awesome) has been dead for a couple years now.

Thanks for the answer on the leather soles, guys. They also look kind of cool, but I’m wondering if I should get a toe plate:
