Viberg

Also not a fan.  I have a pretty strong dislike of zippers on shoes in general and this sole looks a bit too much like a Nike/Cole Haan lunar sole.  The indigo dying is definitely cool though.

@Appfaff:

. . . It reminds me of some high end fashion boots trying to be punk rock . . .

Anyone shed any light on the whole cut hiker on Mr Porter's site being 'made in the uk'… ?

I'm thinking it is a typo….

^This.  To my knowledge the leather is USA the boots are Canada like all the others.

Kudu stitchdown is killer.  If I could fit in a 2030, I would try to get a pair.  Wide feet and Viberg don't mix.  I doubt kudu will ever appear in a 110 or 2040…

Not my cup of tea but good price..

After a year of wear, got around to treating these. Really happy with how it turned out, it's almost like I got a new pair of boots.

I liked the original roughout look, but really like how they look now. Excited to see how they evolve from here.

Bottom pic is the the stock photo from Viberg as I never took an original pic of these boots.

@dstauffer
I like the look too.  What did you treat them with?

I used a treatment made by Baker's boots, I am sure its identical to any number of standard leather treatments. I did two coats on this pair.

[Dishelveled]

Copy that. Thanks, man!

My new (and first) pair of Vibergs.  Scout Boots in Grey Calico from Division Road.  I suspect that they won't be my last pair of Viberg.  They feel pretty amazing.

Great score; Really cool make up!

Thanks @Seul  and @Dishelveled

They're made with a 'nude' or untreated leather that will pick up lots of patina and darken with wear.

Just copped a pair of Viberg Bison 310s off ebay.

I did a little research on the leather, but did not find a ton about it. Anyone have any experience they would like to share about bison leather?

[mikebarhoot]

Very cool score.  You're gonna love the Bison. I'll provide more detail when not responding from phone. At least my $0.02.

They black or chocolate?

[Dstauffer]

@mikebarhoot Thank you very much. I would welcome any and all feedback on this leather as I have no experience, but love the viberg 310s.

the seller said these are a very dark brown (chocolate I guess). In my research of Viberg bison boots, I found that they start out black or almost black and then fad to a dark brown.

Looking forward to your comments!
