Finn stop wasting your time over here; get over to style forum and post your idea for the 310/110 MTO!

Those are nice!

I know I'm a bit behind, but I've just viewed The Big Decision Viberg episode and 3 things stand out:
-
Family tension! Glad to see they're resolving it though and got the investment.
-
Brett is pretty feckin' ripped; quite sure the host is sweet on him.
-
He also wears a lot of Cabourn and Merz B Schwanen if I'm not mistaken (and I guess that would fit considering the collabs).

Where can I see that episode? Id love to check it out

This was the original link, but it doesn't work for me; I'm guessing it's some sort of broadcast rights issue for US viewers. Perhaps someone else has one that will work for us Americans…

Actually, right now I'm not in Texas. I've escaped to America! Temporary freedom, but still enjoyable…

Hmmm…really mixed emotions about this video. As a Canadian and part of a family business myself, I love seeing the progress and evolution of Viberg, the brand. However–and I don't mean to judge because I have a bit of a temper and attitude problem as well, and it would be hypocritical to harp on these character faults-- I was really disappointed with how dismissive Brett came across with respect to the opportunity they were presented by participating in the public demonstration and of the constructive criticism offered by the "footwear fashion consultant." I understand their argument that this particular person might not be used to handling a quality product similar to that which they produce and that presenting their custom boot at his store would be akin to having a Rolex on display in Wal-Mart. But, for someone who made a point of mentioning that without this investment the company's future will almost certainly be in peril, I found it insulting that they would not so much as give him the courtesy of a phone call notifying him of their decision to not attend. I don't know; I just don't like the idea of making someone feel small for the sake of your own image. I'd like to think this was a humbling experience, but given the fact they received the investment they asked for, I doubt it will have any kind of effect.

Hey guys, for those outside America (such as myself), this link worked for the episode - http://fullepisode.info/the-big-decision-season-2-episode-4-redwood-viberg-boots/
TresUnCool - completely agree.
-
Regular link worked for me. In CT.

i love absolutely everything about that boot…. except the 310 toe....I dont know, I loved the 310 last when I first saw it so much that I had my first pair of engineers made on the it, but every time I look at it it just seems more and more out of place on an engineer boot to me.. for some reason... :-\
-
I like my shafts 10" or longer (that's what she said)

Conditioned is absolutely right Snowy.
What was it Sapir said about fashion? "Fashion is custom in the guise of departure from custom".
We all like to think we're completely unique in our choices and what we think looks tasteful, but try as we might, we're all inevitably drawn to wearing what is seen by our community as historically and culturally acceptable.
Not saying we're sheep, but we definitely feel that pressure to wear garments that will appeal to our relative communities, and it's always a tension I feel when looking at something ("what will people think if I wear this around them?"). Maybe it's just me…!

I just have always thought guys like James dean and Steve MCQueen looked to cool for school and have pretty much r&d been influenced by tht more than anything else. Especially in my community were every one shops at the buckle and wear jeans that have as many fleur de les as they could cram on em and shoes to follow suit. I guess the purpose if my comment was nothing more than. Face value statement, I don't really understand how I went from being head over heels for the 310 last to feeling like its an eye sore (in my opinion and especially ON me when I wear it) without much middle ground between.
