Looking good Adam!
I have to admit I really do love Vibergs. I have a real soft spot for the 310 last.
G, I asked a long time ago about any more Viberg collabs and someone (I think it may have been chris) told me there would be no more, just Wesco. Don’t get me wrong, I also love Wesco and have nothing but good things to say about them. However, any particular reason for no more IHxViberg collaborations?

Not to answer for Giles, but IHUK have a strong commitment to Wesco which I believe gives them distribution exclusivity in Europe. I guessing that exclusivity is a two way street.

Shortshifts from a few years back but they still rocking

I’m curious about the slippers they just released. After ankle surgery it’s nice to walk around the house with shoes. Decisions decisions

Pulled the trigger. I find no fault in these outside of the fact that there wasn’t grey in my size when I ordered. I went for black XL. I wear 11 in my other Vibergs and these fit well.

Nice.. I was checking those out. Is there any arch or cushioning?
They look like slippers for life. -
@Sage954 , there is no arch support and minimal cushioning. They are quite comfortable though.

Thanks for the info. I guess I waited too long. XL's are gone in every color

That’s crazy. Who knew they would sell out that fast.

Drooling over your boots @rio I think I spotted some differences in the make up vs mine and just wanted to avoid potential confusion to others who may be interested.
Mine is the older Scout boot on the 1035 last https://divisionroadinc.com/collections/viberg/products/viberg-scout-boot-1035-vibram-2060-black-roughout
I think yours is the cooler Service boot–2030 last https://divisionroadinc.com/collections/viberg/products/viberg-service-boot-2030-vibram-2060-charcoal-chamois-roughout
Very similar to be sure, and I may well be wrong (wont be the last time today
Cheers, brother!

yes you are 100% correct they did not have my size on yours so I got mine, they do not have the pull loop as yours and the foxing in yours is longer towards the front and the vamp on the side leaps over the foxing if you look at your pic yo can see what I mean, they are both very handsome boots, very good of you to notice

Excellent name , thumbs up, very nice boot.

Great idea to do a side-side comparison of the differences between those two makeups @Dishelveled . I came close to ordering those two, one after the other, held off waiting for my '1035 service boot' personal ideal makeup. I don't like the white sole. Hope it comes around. ::)

Awesome boots @rio Can't wait to see that leather evolve. Def have thought about waxing mine after they get thoroughly beat up (so bout 20 years for me) I've seen pics of black roughout boots that appear to lighten considerably with wear and they didn't really vibe that well, vs the lighter colored nat cxl roughouts that just look incredible when beat up!
I'm with you @Seul these new DR iterations are just that much better than my version–antiqued brass eyelets, no pull tab, more sleek looking profile, and that leather oozes character. Kinda like the scout make up more, but just splitting hairs at that point.
Cheers @motojobobo Any pics of this dream boot you mentioned? And which white soles are you referring? I still cant get behind the Gloxi, but have totally changed my tune on the Christy.
Damn my posts are getting voluminous, Rueben's rubbing off on me–wait that came out wrong, haha!
