Durability
Kudu is probably my favorite leather and these don’t dissapoint. Literally no break-in period. A quick brush after wearing for now. Not much change with limited wear thus far.

Satisfied with the Fit
Perfect fit for me - maybe the best last for my feet. Very slight arch, munson-like toebox. I love wearing this booot and could walk all day in it.

Viberg Service Boot PCT in Horween Golden Brown Predator RoughoutBy have.boots.will.travel • April 5, 2025"Not a whole lot more to say about these. I think I should’ve passed on the previous two review prompts and waited for this one. Maybe next year!
In summary, I wore these mostly to work and around town. But I also took them on several mountain hikes and a trip to snowy Japan back in January.
They have performed perfectly in all environments. Some sore heels during initial break-in. And after the long snowy hike in Japan with heavy snow. But otherwise they have been comfortable from day 1...."Read the full review

Viberg Service Boot PCT in Horween Golden Brown Predator RoughoutBy have.boots.will.travel • March 23, 2025"Overall the 2040 has been an awesome boot to break in. I’ve hiked in them up mountains and visited shrines in Japan in ankle deep snow. And they have performed in all conditions. I have only
experienced some heel pain on one occasion after the in initial break in and that was during the aforementioned Japan trip, but I think it was because they got a bit wet and the leather hardened up a bit after drying. And also because of my own anatomy. (Bony bumps on my heels. )
They have been extremely comfortable for the most part and especially now after having been fully broken in...."Read the full review
I think I have found my new favorite last. The 2040.
Viberg Service Boot PCT in Horween Golden Brown Predator RoughoutBy have.boots.will.travel • December 29, 2024"Though initially I had some heel pain and had to wear some heel protectors for a week or two, that was mostly due to my own anatomy than the boots themselves. (I have some weird bony knobs on the backs of my heels ㅠㅠ) I’ve worn these daily, which mostly consists of city and office wear. I plan to take these on some hikes as soon as I find the time...."Read the full review
1000 Miles (and Counting…)
Viberg Service Boot PCT in Horween Natural Shell CordovanBy solestandcool • April 3, 2024"These were worn constantly. No activity or condition deterred that. From the office to jobsites, from sun to sleet, these were on foot. Significant mileage was racked up walking the streets of NYC (the heels tell that tale), a significant amount accompanied by my never-tired Blue Heeler on our daily long walks. My phone tells me I’ve walked/ran 1,100 miles over these past 6 months. Outside of a recent reentry into running, all of those miles were lived through these boots...."Read the full review
I took these boots to Nepal with me and couldn’t have asked for a better pair of boots for trekking.
Viberg Service Boot PCT in Horween Marine Field RoughoutBy Denman_John • January 25, 2025"I took these boots as my only footwear to Nepal and Thailand for 6 weeks. They performed amazingly well and were very comfortable in any situation I threw at them. Trekking in the Himalayas is very demanding on your body and the gear you use. These boots were great in all conditions and in varied terrains...."Read the full review
