Viberg Scout Boot

To wrongly paraphrase Ludacris and countless other rappers, how high can you go? That seems to be the question with these and other thick soled workwear boots. We can see the practicality of it – we imagine they’ll do a better job in the winter than those thin soled excuses for boots – but there’s just something a little off in our eyes. We’re not dead set against them, they’re just a little too close to platform boots for our tastes. Although, having said that (© Curb) they would work a treat for men who need a boost sometimes.
