They on trend

Ugly sneakers is a thing, will be funny when people ask me if I'm up on the ugly Canadian sneaker company viberg.

Think they would look cooler, hahaha I know ridiculous but with that gloxi cut sole I would wear these. Oh and not black cream or beige or navy blue or green would all be sweet

These will be successful just like ironheart lawn/camping chairs

1st thing: welcome back @mclaincausey

2nd: hard pass, don’t care how trendy they are

[madmonday]

Don't think these are really made for current customers or folks into heritage for lack of a better term to cover what most folks on this forum are into

This is for new customers although I doubt they would say it so they don't alienate the current audience

Will be fun for me to watch

Fugly "orthopedic" sneakers. So so wrong. What's next Nike engineer boots ?

edit; looks like NB has already done an engineer boot, the A08

[madmonday]

NB have done a lot of trail boots and runners

I can understand why everyone doesn't like, and to be clear I am not arguing for anyone to like these as taste or in my case lack of taste is subjective.

I'm just amused and puzzled by the disdain and almost emotionally response to these go fast shoes.

Pretty sure Nikes make boots and they are loved by law enforcement through out the tri-state area cause they light but sturdy and meet all uniform requirements.

Vans did engineer boots as a collabo and a bunch of vendors do all kinds of stuff outside of their normal orcore market.

yuketen make all kinds of crazy footwear (pretty sure they do a vans type slip on and something else as well)

I love sneaker-boots (as I call them). Comfy footwear is a must!

I don't care who made those: they're ugly as fuck…

If you want sneaks made by a fashion brand, just buy W+H or bust...

Not my thing plenty of companies that make shoe/hiking/ sneakers type, I think Lavar ball might be mad tho 

[Clint_D]

I'm sure that they're really well made.  They wouldn't be pursuing this avenue unless there was a market for the style so I can't be hateful for that.

I received my ebay purchase today; Viberg Engineer Boots in Brown Chromexcel

https://viberg.com/products/engineer-brown-chromexcel?variant=1145912348

To say I am happy with these beauties would be the understatement of the century. I am new to engineer boots and am looking forward to wearing them. Will post some fit pics very soon . . .

[Appfaff]

+1 I love the multi shades of the mid soles

Very beautiful boots @den1mhead

I am so stoked about this Divison Road x Viberg collaboration. I didn't know how I was gonna feel about a dark olive, but I am really excited to see how they evolve….hopefully here by end of week or early next week

They're lovely. Good choice. I do like Viberg's more workmanlike lasts and builds. Their more dainty offerings leave me cold.

[den1mhead]

^They are proper rude boy bad boy shoes - I love 'em

[Dstauffer]

Thanks guys!

I am pretty much only interested in their 310 lasts and with my amazing Wesco experiences, my overall interest in the Viberg brand is beginning to fade…
