      Hey @Giles - yes, the link you've provided comes up with the following statement;

      "This collection is empty"?

      Where have their engineer boots gone? Jules has just bought a pair of Viberg engineers of eBay so wanted to look at Viberg's website but there is nothing to see ?

        That's why I posted it…

          Thanks @Appfaff for that heads up which makes for interesting reading.

          So Viberg are out of the engineer boot game / market, for reasons that are clear to Viberg only. All the more market share for Wesco  🙂 edit; and other engineer boot manufacturers

              Having just received a new pair of Viberg's today, I can vouch for them being lighter and more flexible out of the box than they used to be. My pair has a welt rather than stitch down, which is perhaps a manufacturing shortcut, but then also easier to rebuild? Viberg seem to be claiming the channelled insole is their way to step up from other goodyear's, although pretty sure Yuketen's non-mocs have been channelled for awhile. All that being said I wanted to make the 7" domain toe cap boot work but the last didn't seem to suit, and same with the IH/DR/Wesco collab boot which is really special. I haven't tried the engineers. Would like a tea-core boot.

                So after a brief exchange with @Chris about a longing to "cheers some beers" with him in the near future (this is meant to be less creepy then it sounds in my sentence structure) - I was wondering if anyone would be down to do some Zoom Happy Hours for the forum members? Since it's now been more than a year since most of us have been able to meet each other in person, figured it could be kinda fun, and a great way to get to know other people, and hear what their voices sound like haha.

                I know everyone is probably Zoom'd out, but perhaps drinking and denim chat can make up for it?

                Also, I know we are all in different time zones, which could either mean 1. some Americans have to drink in the Am (which has become common place anyways, right) or 2. Europeans just need more Jameson in their coffee 🙂

                I'd be happy to organize if there is interest!

                      Next week is Thanksgiving in the US (Very sorry you are not spending it with us, maybe one year!) so that is either the perfect time as a lot of people are off work, or a terrible time as people will be busy most likely.

                        @Madame Buttonfly and I were supposed to be spending Thanksgiving with @ROman this year., and we were so looking forward to it.

                        That's fucked…..

                                          @neph93 I just read an article that in part of Alaska, the sun is setting for the winter until Mid January.  When does it set for you and is it perma darkness or just extremely low in the horizon?  Do you guys use lights to help regulate circadian rhythms?

                                          Just curious.
