Show us your boots

[Chiba J.]

Thanks guys. Really excited to see how these patina. I've seen some worn White Kloud boots in the same leather (Badalassi cognac) at Mushmans and they were a really stunning red-brown. If you're familiar with Alden's Horween shell, tone-wise at least they were a Ravello-ish color. Here is an example, but the ones I saw were even darker than these.

^Those are wicked cool boots.  Really really nice.

Engineer boots really are not my thing, but I have to applaud they way those boots are made. The stitch and the leather looks amazing, they should last forever.

Love that soft 40's toe and profile on the RRL, understated win.

[simonc]

on another note, what do you think of dying the natural sides of the soles the same colour as the boot? Thoughts?

[injunjack]

generally, natural is too light imho and gets awful looking fast.

I prefer stained brown or black. Black is easiest to maintain neat.

Both can tone-in or give contrast depending on the boot color….

White's 'n Viberg….

[MikeC]

Does Viberg have a heritage type boot silhouette, like the Whites Smokejumper?

MikeC Brett has a pic of a vintage pair from the 30's in his instagram but i believe it is the service boot, sorry misread your Q but i am sure they have somewhere a vintage pair smokejumpers lying around, maybe Morgan can help

[MikeC]

I was just wondering what boot, Viberg was known for, before this fashion craze.

[Giles]

Dozens of classics.  Look at workboot.com

i started wearing viberg around 1994 and started with the contractor. they lasted ten years. i'd say the were the most common viberg boot you'd see in british columbia, where there made.
