IHVB-01 - Iron Heart/Viberg Indigo and black Scout Boot
-
Well hello, Vibergs.
Mine arrived today. I must confess that I was really on the fence about buying these. The style is quite different from the type of boot that I normally wear, particularly the wedge style sole. That said…
1. the moment you take them out of the box: WOW. the quality is like nothing else
2. the details. just amazing
3. the comfort... have only walked around my apartment a bit with them and obviously they need some breaking in, but the sole is incredibly comfortable
4. the feeling you get when you wear them. you know they're something special.
I had wanted something I could put on everytime I go out without really thinking, knowing that they would go with a variety of styles and knowing they would be comfortable and durable for various conditions. They check every box.
A note on sizing: I went for 8.5 which seems right. I take 9.5 in running shoes (Nike/New Balance), 9 in most other shoes and 8.5 in pull-on boots. I would recommend sizing down for these.

babyknight, damn you! I knew this moment would arrive sooner than later. I really have been trying to avoid this thread all together. Saw that you posted and had a feeling. Anyhow, if/ when the Superblack versions come out, I may take the plunge. Enjoy them and I hope to see them walking around this Winter!

Thanks everyone, appreciate the kind words. Lando, I hope to see you wearing them this winter too!!

Is that Lando having taken the plunge?
Hahaha, no. Waiting on something Green in the mail right now but we will see…. That is Haraki-San holding a pair and sharing some close-ups with us via Bss Talk: http://shin3155.blog54.fc2.com/
