Leather

With a few weeks of daily wear, getting some nice creases. Right now, just a quick brush after wearing.
Fit

Volume Feels Right
Ball Feels Right
Satisfied with the Fit
Fit is pretty good for me. I did drop in a Nick’s leather insole to eat up some volume while they break in. I’ll likely remove in a couple more weeks. Very comfortable overall amd feels better each wear.

Design
Construction
Finishing
Clicking
I like the overall design and pattern. It’s top-notch all-around. I’m especially fond of the clicking, with the smoth vamp and grained quarters. The scalloped split welt is interesting.
Sole & heel
Dainite Ridgeway Sole BrownLess than a day, current sole
Durability
Traction
Comfort
Asthetically, Ridgeway isn’t my favorite, but on foot it’s been great and very comfortable. We’ll see how it handles snow in a couple months.
Dainite Ridgeway HeelWorn for less than a day, current heel
Comfort
Durability
The rubber compound is a bit soft. I don’t really drag/scuff my heels much and they’ve worn fairly quick.
Final thoughts
Would Recommend
I think the 1940 last is great. I would love to see the Service Boot pattern on this last.

These boots look “hot”, as long as you’re willing to put up with a little bit of “crazy”.
Viberg Service Boot BCT in Horween Black Teacore Double Cordovan ButtsBy PerHansa • April 5, 2025"I wore these Vibergs everywhere, but most of the action took place in the cockpit. For the first two months I wore them to the training center every day, into the flight simulator, and out at night. For the next couple months I wore them on all my airline trips. Between the rudder pedals, and cramped spaces of a Boeing cockpit, they got banged around quite a bit. As they began showing their wear I retired them from work trips, put in some brown laces, and began wearing them for everything while home...."Read the full review

Viberg Service Boot in Horween Brown Waxed FleshBy pesayerm • April 6, 2025"I wore these everywhere during the dome, they were my main boots for 6 months. I wore these in rain, snow, and mud, on the playground with my kids, on long dog walks, hikes, and everything in between. At times these felt a bit too “refined” in certain situations, but overall these were a lot of fun to wear and looked good with just about everything in my wardrobe...."Read the full review
