Viberg Boot - UK7 - Oxford Style 145, Brogue Cap Toe, blk. Chromexcel, Vibram Christy Sole
-
Still a bit high. I shipped a pair of boots to Europe for less than half that.
-
Just saw an instagram photo of a new berg and its Goodyear welted. Guess they're having to meet demand.

After 5 long months, I finally received my Viberg Hikers through 4 Horsemen. The make up is as follows:
Chocolate Bull Hide
2030 last
Unstructured toe box
Gun metal hardware
Vibram Sierra sole
Out of the box, I couldn't be happier with these boots! This is my first custom Viberg (4th pair overall), and it was really something to open the box and see them made entirely to my specs.
I plan on using these as a serious hiking boot, and will be taking them up a local mountain for their first trek today.
Looking forward to seeing how they wear in! -
Wanting peoples thoughts on soles for a service boot. I am leaning towards a leather sole and Giles suggested a double leather. need to make my mind up to place my order.
Thanks -
I prefer the commando sole, myself. It gives good traction and still has a relatively sleek profile. If you do much walking on concrete or in wet conditions, (or even worse, a combination of the two) leather soles wear out more quickly. They also need more time to dry out if they do get wet.

Love my leather soles.

Just recieved a notice that viberg will be receiving equipment to start using Goodyear welts

A lot will steer you away from a leather sole. I have a pair with leather sole cats paw combo and I've yet to wipe out in them on ice. It's a personal preference and I think they look cool. So go for it !
These boots will be walking in Australia so ice and snow will not be an issue. So looking good for the double leather then!
Sorry i am new to boots, Goodyear welts? I have heard the term but what is it and how will it change viberg?

the look wont change
its just a faster and lighter way of making boots -
They look nice. What heels have you got. Looks like leather to me. People are saying cat paw heels. Why have a leather sole and a cat paw heel not all leather or all rubber?
