Viberg Service Boot

Viberg’s 10.5 2040 last got my feet great with little to no break in required. And C.F. Stead’s leathers are amazing. I love the how the dark red patinas and suite the fall/winter/spring seasons. I wear a lighter leather tone in the summer. This Bovine leather is also heavily waxed and water resistant which was great while I was in Tokyo last fall. I love the comando sole but have been very happy with these ridgeway soles for their exceptional grip and sleek look allowing me to dress them up nicely for a nice dinner in a fashionable restaurant. I used them for weekly hikes in the bush and were great in the snow and my new job at a garden center allowed me to wear them at work too where I was able to capture some nice pics and put in more miles too.

I first got interested in fine boot wear last January and was thrilled to learn that Viberg in Victoria BC CANADA is only a 90 minute drive from my home. I was able to visit their facility and try on numerous pairs, sorting out sizing and lasts and leathers and love a thick leather on a sturdy sole for the stability and support this offers.

I look through their online catalogue regularly to see what new is coming out in the current season and love the personal service when visiting in person.
