      I confess that I never thought I would come CLOSE to paying what it takes to get a pair of Vibergs, but eventually I came around.  Once you've decided to spend 4 or 5 hundred, what's another 2 hundred…?!

      Quite, and once you have that mindset the decision to acquire a second, and third, pair is remarkably easy 🙂

            ^looking forward to'em buddy!

            on a serious note, this sums it up pretty well imo:
            @tod:

            White's vs Viberg is the eternal unsolved question!  I think both are made in similar small, hands-on factory and are of roughly comparable quality of construction.  There is no doubt that the "fashion" factor has driven up Viberg prices recently.  But White's have also gone up a bit, and I think you'd be hard pressed to find a pair for $400 – more like $500 and up. Still cheaper than Viberg of course.

            Again, I think quality is comparable, but I do find that Viberg has a real edge on styling, and I think their leathers are a cut above what's available with White's.  Whether that justifies the price is up to each buyer.  I confess that I never thought I would come CLOSE to paying what it takes to get a pair of Vibergs, but eventually I came around.  Once you've decided to spend 4 or 5 hundred, what's another 2 hundred...?!

                                Rafa, did you scoop the Viberg x Manufactum cordovans?!?!?! I'm sofa king jealous!!! I am madly in love with those boots. I'm insane for them. If yours come in, they happen to be 3 sizes too big and you wanna give them to your favorite Okie, let me know! 😉

                                  They'd only need to be one size too big; he's a 9 and you're a 10…

                                  (Yes, I also think it's a little creepy that I know both your shoe sizes.)

                                    I thought he had tiny 7.5 feet. And I'm a 10.5 in all my burgs, but blue. But, yes, creep on brother Texas, creep on. And, Rafa, if they're a 10.5 and you hate them, and really want to give them to someone deserving of such terrible revolting boots, please, don't hesitate to mail them to Lawton, Oklahoma. I'm so jealous, you've really got the dream pair.
