so fresh and so clean clean!…dope

[thomasnunnally]

damn nice urb!

[SpaceGnome]

Those boots are nice, but something about them trows me off.  I think its that they just look delicate, with the really low profile toe and the super short heel.  I love the leather combo tho.  Would also go without the Cats Paw heel.  as cool as they are, they are obsolete in materials.

Sole might look a li'l vulnerable but holy cow are they beauts!..

[urbanwoodsman]

Hahaha. Delicate. Never heard that before in reference to Viberg's Water Buffalo. Have you ever seen it in person?

[SpaceGnome]

i dont mean in materials, I mean in appearance.  Its the short heel and low profile toe box that makes them seem a bit too "sports car" and less "truck" if you know what I mean.  I know they are hefty and well made.

[Giles]

Viberg do seem to have a fondness for the low profile last atm…..

[SpaceGnome]

I guess I should be using the word sleek to describe them.  My brain seems to be on holiday today.

thought the same today as I saw their take on a vintage M43 service boot on their blogg!…looks dope though...

[Giles]

I'm personally not into the slim look, but as I have said a bzillion times before:
a) What do I know
b) Does it matter
c) All that matters is what the wearer likes…..

[SpaceGnome]

exactly.  by no mean am I trying to out the boots down.  They are impeccably crafted and look great.  I just have a personal issue with Viberg's toe shapes.  I think the only one I like is the Bobcat, as its the only one that seems to be fairly "normal".  The service boot is too low profile for my liking and the other boot with that upturned toe is nice, but I think i would get tired of it fairly quick.

[Giles]

Well this is what I have inbound, Brett calls it "quite aggressive" - I just like it…....

[Megatron1505]

Now that is a nice looking boot G, it is quite aggressive…..suits you 

[Giles]

Suits you sir?

i was referring to this type of toe, although in this pic its not as noticeable as i have seen some versions.
