Viberg’s 2020 Last in their boots and shoes is an anatomical take with a mold that bends and curves with the feet. While Viberg has made a big push in getting this last out to the masses, we’d venture to say it still has a lot of welcoming feet in waiting that just haven’t had the opportunity to try it on. Read on for our impressions and sizing advice on the 2020 Last. For a …
Our last Viberg 145 Oxford to be released for the foreseeable future, the Viberg Toscanello (Crust) Horsebutt 145 Oxford, aka the Franklin II Oxford. Coming off the heels of the OG Franklin, some slight changes were made primarily out of production practicality. We’re incredibly happy with how these turned out, and are a nice “stamp” on the 145 Oxford as we see this style sunset. Releasing Friday, August 21 at 5:15pm EST, the latest Viberg …
Introducing the Viberg Saddletan Chromepak Country Boot in 2030 Last and Ridgeway sole, the latest in our iterations of Viberg for Withered Fig. We’re calling this the “Prairie” Country Boot because of meaningful reasons that we will not delve into. Anyways, as we retire a couple of our favored Viberg styles, the 145 Oxford and the Bobcat Boot, we might just start switching gears by making more use of the Country Boot style, another one …
This Friday at Noon EST, we’re releasing the Essentials Only Bottle Opener, a collaboration piece between High Side and Withered Fig. Made out of high carbon steel and machined to take on all bottles, even those with wax, these are an essential accessory for these essential only times.

We’ve got a one month review of these Camel Oiled Calf Viberg Slippers lined up for you below, but alongside we took the time to figure out how to fix those pesky insoles that have become an issue on some of the more recent pairs of Vibergs. It’s pretty simple, but just something we thought we’d add for future reference if you ever have the same issue. We basically used some all-purpose rubber cement to re-attach the current insole to the base of the shoe. Simple and easy, fixed and done. Read on for more, and as always we thank you for taking the time to check out our blog posts!
Railcar Fine Good’s Journeyman X034 is their 16.5 oz proprietary denim that they ran from 2017 to 2019 before discontinuing the fabric in late 2019. While it has been discontinued, you can still find this Railcar denim on our store in select sizes, as well as from other retailers who may still have remaining stock. We wanted to highlight how this pair has worn in, even though it may be hard to find this pair …
We’ve teamed up with High Side to offer $10 GC to their restaurant bar for every $50 spent at Withered Fig. This is a limited opportunity to help support two small businesses at once!
Just in time to show off at your next online video hangout, we bring you the latest Viberg for Withered Fig. This Viberg Bobcat make-up was inspired from one of my original Goodyear welted (GYW) boots from way back when, the Red Wing Beckman. Obviously there’s a lot of differences from the leather to soles, the speed-hooks to the pull-tab, but the inspiration is there and we thought it only proper to give the nod …
