      After I have taken the last couple of pairs of Wild Ones, my commercial relationship with Viberg will end.  Basically as they change their business model, doing the sort of stuff I/we want/need is not something they wish to pursue.

      I wish them much luck, we have done some great builds together.

      I really need a relationship with a good boot company that compliments Iron Heart, so on the basis that Viberg was a no go, I had to look elsewhere, and quite frankly, there were not too many places to look.

      I have formed a partnership with Sascha and Tobias of Vater & Sohn and we are now the exclusive European distributor for Wesco – I simply do not have the bandwidth to do this on my own and I could think of no two greater guys to join me in this great adventure..  We are all super excited about this.  We have 3 builds already in place and 4 more in the pipe.  Plus, and this is where I get seriously over-excited, we have a new leather, never before available anywhere being made for us as I type.  It will of course be exclusive to us…..

      This ride is going to be so good…..

      I hope you will join us in the fun.

        Glorious! Where one door closes another opens! Many congrats!really looking forward to seeing what you guys do!

        Funnily enough saw the collabo that wesco did with neighborhood yesterday and thought that they couldn't match the potential of what you guys would do given the opportunity!

            Exciting news, but sad at the same time.  Like you said you have collaborated on some really great builds.  I'm glad I got in on the fun before it was too late.

                Somehow this will end with Viberg raising their prices yet again 😉

                  Viberg has certainly made some interesting business moves in the last year…

                    That's a very polite way to put it.

                              I love my service boots with the 2030. I just need to get used to pointy toe. I feel like I'm wearing cowboy boots. 2030 is the most comfortable last I have tried so far. I also have 2045 and 240 lasts
