Right. That's exactly what will happen.

^ so the custom orders through you are also dead G.?
…and btw. I also like those white paint boots! the back ones are even nicer imo...
My impression is that customer single pair made to order boots are dead, but Giles/Iron Heart collaborations, as well as collaborations with other retailers, will continue. Giles has always said he needs at least 4 orders to get Viberg to do a custom build; Guy's post seems to imply that Viberg needs to make multiple pairs of a configuration to compensate for the effort of shutting down the line, recalibrating their machines, switching out materials, resetting tolerances, etc. A minimum order for a retailer should still be worthwhile. I wouldn't be surprised if the minimum order goes up to something like 10 pairs instead of 4, though.
But that's just my guess…

What happened to the pics…?
Anyway, those are some great boots. Nice to see Service boots with the pull tab
