This is the first pair I acquired sometime last year. Bought of ebay (may be of someone on this forum?) the ripple sole I know is a bit marmite for most people, but I highly recommend it. It is obviously a lot of cash to lay down for a sole you may end up hating, but I am a huge fan. It also mean these shoes individually weigh the same as a small child.
The natural tan rough out is incredible, requires very little care and gets furrier with age! I've also worked out they've clocked out a fair amount of air miles! (Canada-England(superdenim)-USofA-England if anyone gives a sh*t)
One, in hindsight obvious recommendation, do not wear a ripple sole in icy conditions. I found out the hard way on an icy sloped pavement in full view of a hundred other Londoners.

for you sample sale veterans, how long did it take for you to receive your boots?
i have my boots shipped to a friend in the USA (thanks again mate!), so i can not tell exactly…my first pair is still en route to him (got shipped last friday!), so i think one week is a good starting point!

Do we have viberg rough out samples?

My boots arrived in one week. I was sent the tracking info on the same day they were delivered. Not sure about customs if your not in N America though. That may slow things down.

I spoke to Morgan today about rough out samples and he said "The rough outs are basically limited to the rough out side of our full grain leathers. So, if you look at the reverse side of some of the full grain leather you'll be looking at our rough outs." Are we able to do some photos of the reverse side. I know giles has samples but i saw rafa did the photos so not sure who to ask??

I read an inteview with him the other day from 2012 and he wanted to put them up and do clothing and bags

….and the viberg website is now live. My pick of the lot is the Service Boot Black Horse Butt. Pity I don't need another black boot
Little bummed the custom builder's not up, after all these samples have done the rounds, I was tempted to play around designing a pair.

I see clothing is a tab? Be cool to see what they do. So might be a viberg × ih jean soon?
