Viberg

There's a group buy being put together at Styleforum for a Boondockers style field shoe.
According to the answers posted on page four, they're going to cost around $600, have a free choice of sole, with delivery in February or March.

These are real winners, though:

I'm trying to gauge whether or not spending $850+ shipping on a pair of 'bergs is a good idea. ( Brett wasn't kidding around when he said he planned on hiking the prices.)
I wont shit this thread up with the reasons why I most likely wont buy some, but the price is one of them. Im with you there Shoreman…

At some point you start pricing yourself out of your target market. But then again the Asian community will pay any price for what they want (ex: Leica cameras)

shoreman, i'm not sure that those are new? nice shoe either way. i've no comment on pricing on any item ever unless it's in my sales thread & someone is trying to get a lower price ::) .
the consumer has all the power by either supporting or not supporting the vendor(s).
that's all

ah okay. i'm ignorant to all things canuk but how hard would it be for you to make a trip to get sizing right & make sure quality is up to snuff for that super-luxury price point?
-
ah, okay. figured a drive through lovely NY & i'm there in less than a day or so. thanks for the word

sorry nate, i was really asking my dude shoreman as i know he is up north & we have similar taste. i worded it poorly. i know shoreman will say an item is either overpriced or that he is into it. noting like honest feedback from another consumer when making a large purhcase. one of the many reasons this place is such a useful tool

i think there are some nyc dealers for them thou. no?
urb probably knows?Nate, I think MM knows his Viberg size. Pretty sure he owns like 12 pairs.
But, Freemans and Leffot usually have a few pairs of various makes available. -
Viberg have a pair of very tasty deerskin boots on their blog.
Unfortunately they don't seem keen to sell boots in this style. I did ask.
In terms of price, Viberg are more expensive than other boot companies, but I think that Giles's offer on the Smoke Jumpers would have worked out pretty competitive with ordering a similar pair of Whites from Baker's for those of us in the EU with VAT and import duties to contend with. I'm currently regretting not ordering a pair.
