Maybe there's a silver lining for the end of the MTO program….  Getting rid of all that inefficiency should lead to lower prices right?

[Chris]

Right.  That's exactly what will happen.

Excellent point, tigerpac…

You hope, wouldn't bank on it

[Seul]

Yeah that won't happen.

@Finn666:

^ so the custom orders through you are also dead G.?

…and btw. I also like those white paint boots! the back ones are even nicer imo...

My impression is that customer single pair made to order boots are dead, but Giles/Iron Heart collaborations, as well as collaborations with other retailers, will continue.  Giles has always said he needs at least 4 orders to get Viberg to do a custom build; Guy's post seems to imply that Viberg needs to make multiple pairs of a configuration to compensate for the effort of shutting down the line,  recalibrating their machines, switching out materials, resetting tolerances, etc.  A minimum order for a retailer should still be worthwhile.  I wouldn't be surprised if the minimum order goes up to something like 10 pairs instead of 4, though.

But that's just my guess…

@Scottystyles:

What happened to the pics…?

Anyway, those are some great boots.  Nice to see Service boots with the pull tab

[Seul]

Damn bring back the pics, Scotty…

Some new horsehide engineers and service boots on the viberg site. I don't understand why the engineers are only 8".

I gave up trying to work out what the whole anti-horse thing was. As soon as it came out they started getting back into horse for reals. Things change. As we're seeing. I for one am glad I've got the chance of Horse Viberg once more.
