Viberg Boots - Reviews, appreciation, news - share yours

Looking to pick up some slippers and got spooked by the horror stories about the 2010 fit. I searched the thread and this was the last post I saw discussing the change. Now that the 2030 versions have been out for a while, do people feel these are a better fit all around than the 2010s? Size down half from 2030 boot size for no socks?

Hey @Samir - I got ping’d on this and had to think about this a bit to remember (this is an old post!), but yes - I still have these and really like them.

I wear a lot of Viberg boots, and the standard width 2030‘s fit me best of all. Always 10.5, or 1 down from US runners. The slippers in 2030 are the same. I never wear mine without thin socks, but I would be able to size a half down if I did want to go barefoot all the time. For occasional barefoot use, my regular 10.5 would be fine too. The shape and design allows for some leeway.

hope that help!

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

Can never say. Its Viberg so they may send you an empty box for all you know.

Double checked, my size (7) still gone. Oh gee.

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

anyone have experience resoling the sshoes with these excessively high stitchdowns? from .com or elsewhere?

I had Wyatt and Dad do mine. Superb work, think it was $70 extra for hand-stitching

I personally love the higher density from a visual standpoint. I’ve even had a coworker comment on it before. I don’t know how I’ll ever find someone to resolve them in Australia though.

Lucky I have so many boots now I doubt I’ll ever need a resole.

Kieran the Cobbler I believe can do this work for you.

Sounds good. I’ll let you know when that day comes.

And I see you do toe plates as well. I how much do you charge for those roughly?

I typically pay $45 for toe plates

Oh nice. I’ll check them out when I need a 758 SPI boot resoled 👍


What was the turn around time?

I’m a tight fit on the 2030s in 10uk. I just got the 9.5s on 2030s in the slippers. They are super tight on me - if the leather on the slippers was hard these would be a hard no and I’d recommend sticking to your typical 2030 size, but these are kangaroo leather (super soft, almost stretchy) so I am optimistic they will stretch out in a way that’s custom fit for slippers.

Wow. Thats much more reasonable than my other quotes. If I lived in Sydney I’d drop off thirty pairs tomorrow. I’ll reach out to you soon.

2-3 weeks I think. Had them do some other stuff as well so hard to isolate just the time it took for the Vibergs
