Viberg

Just did some maintenance on these. Italian calf with an unusual matte finish. I really love them and would like ta add a similar pair of brown service boots in the near future.

The slides are amazing! I was pleasantly surprised with how nice they are. And they fit great too.
-
Those are so cool @filthy - nice score

I hear you both - funds issue and a friend visiting the very same day saved me from this (Viberg & RnH) world of pain [emoji28]

RH is one of those places that is both a joy and a pain to visit!

What is the most durable smoothout leather Viberg use? Weighing options for a service boot that is reasonably smart but will not demonstrate rapid evo and will be able to sustain the inevitable scratches and such without looking beaten up (a characteristic I normally desire, but want these to verge on dress boots).

Most durable would be their heavyweight oil tan leather used mainly on their workboot line. Oil tan leathers are fully dyed through and not tea core surface dyed like most of the fashion line leathers. Latigo is also dyed through as well and very durable. It’s been a while since I’ve seen Viberg use those leathers in their fashion line however. Horsehide is also quite durable as well but generally only surface dyed.

That confirms my sneaking suspicion that mocha oil tan is a solid target. Thank you much!

Natural CXL - 2030 last
In hindsight I prefer the service boot without the Toe-Cap.. live & learn

Cleaned, oiled and brushed my Navy CXL service boots. Ready for another 6-10 months of abuse.

Y'all see this Rivet & Hive Shinki collab preorder? One in black and one in brown.

The ones featured over in the Rivet and Hide thread? I like the horse hide pair.

Stuart T brought this to my / our attention whilst attending the Viberg fitting at RnH recently. Lovely boots in gorgeous leather but I find the profile / overall appearance a little "high street" for my liking.
