Viberg

Anyone ever had their Viberg stitchdown construction boots resoled? Or any other stitchdown boot for that matter...
I know its more difficult to do....i'm curious if most cobblers have this skill, or if its more of a specialty job?
I just got off the phone with the dude at Wyatt and Dad Cobblers (super nice guy)...He told me he has to hand stitch boots that are stitch down construction because machines don't have the finesse to align the needle into the existing holes without running out all over the place.

I want to get the shite "commando" soles replaced on my Pachena Bays with Vibram 100s...love that sole!

No firsthand experience, but I've read a number of positive reviews about Unsung House. There's an upcharge because they too have do do the stitchdown by hands, but the work I've seen is very clean.

@SonnyTheElder @Mizmazzle

I highly recommend Grant at Unsung. They have resoled several boots for me and I’ve also had them make a pair of engineers.

I currently have a pair of boots at Bedo’s doing a recraft, I’ve heard he’s amazing so we shall see…

[northsouthdenimguy]

This may be not everybody’s cup of tea, but if you have any questions about Grant or Isaac’s ability’s here’s a pair of Viborg’s that I had them completely modify from a Vibram

@northsouthdenimguy looks great man, I might need to get my 310s resoled by then. Too much sliding around for me.

[northsouthdenimguy]

@ZackB

Yeah, they should be able to hook you up and maybe re-last them to a little bit smaller size if needed

[ZackB]

@northsouthdenimguy you nailed it, mine could be a little smaller too. I was on their site the other day, just need to make the move.

@northsouthdenimguy @SonnyTheElder
Thanks for the info fellas!! I’m going to look at them more closely.

Seidel Mocha Tan pair I recently scored.

@SonnyTheElder Those boots look amazing! Which sole do they have? Last? New old stock? We need details

[SonnyTheElder]

@Denman-John Thank you! They're on the 2040 last on Dainite sole. It's an older makeup, I think around 2015-16 and while not new, they are in pristine condition. Stoked to find this pair, takes the sting out of not being able to get that sweet Predator Roughout pair from BCC you got.

[Denman John]

@SonnyTheElder Again, those look fantastic. The 2040 is such a good last and fit my feet perfectly. See, your patience paid off and you landed these bad boys. Wear them in good health!

@Denman-John getting better with age

@SonnyTheElder

These are so good, just like everybody else I’m constantly looking for OG make ups. I’ve only bought a couple new Viberg’s in the last five years +.

@Denman-John

Amen brother! It's slim pickings for me at size 13 but just makes the pairs I do manage to snag that much sweeter.
