      Tough thing to picture, but hope the is ok for you.

      Just read your dilemma between the Whites and Vibergs oxfords, I can relate as I had the same issue.

      I handled the Viberg version at 14oz in Berlin, and in my opinion they are not $200 better than the Whites/ Bakers.

        The SJs were by far the stiffest, I haven't found the Oxfords or the SDs to be stiff at all. However, the addition of a double leather midsole would stiffen then up.

          Thanks Mega. I'm most like,y going for the Bakers. Vibergs  are dope but I can't justify close to $600 for an Oxford when Bakers are $300. I'm just concerned about the 2021 sole. I like it but have one on a pair of Redwings and it's super stiff. I almost wonder if the cobbler put an extra shank in there or something because I spoke with Kyle at Bakers the other day and he said they are normally really flexible and soft.  Gonna start an Oxford fund, and try to earmark some cash from some other bullshit to get this ball rolling sooner than later.

                    Honestly, I wish that I had gone for Red Dog rough out now, just looks so fucking good on the oxfords.

                      10-12 week turnaround time for MTO's at the moment for Bakers (whites) :-\

                        Im debating red dog or the standard distressed rough out.  I like your black CXL's Mega, but my SJ/BH are black CXL, and I need to go another route for variety's sake. 
                        I did really like Vibergs oxfords that are black CXL with rough out on the eyelet area.  Looks pretty slick

                          10-12 weeks turnaround = a-ok for me… Am I the only one who thinks 300 $ for these shoes is almost dirtcheap?.. I'm exaggerating, sure, but I'm certain you get a lot of fucking shoe for the money!..

                          Adjusted... PS: if I'm a 7.5 UK in Red Wing, 8 UK in Grenson and Tricker's; I'd be a 8.5 US in these right?..

                            No way, they fit fucking huge, go a half size down from your Red Wing size.

                              8.5 US = 8 UK right?.. You're right, might have to go with 8 US/ 7.5 UK/ 41.5 €UR… That's the same size as my Red Wings... If they fit a bit big, I'll just toss in an insole...

                                Yup, roll with that plan  😉

                                I'm a true UK 10, I ordered my Oxfords in a US 10 and if anything they are still a little roomy.

                                        Naw I'm good. Wanted a something like this some time ago, however now I can just live vicariously through you all. Enjoy and please, keep the imagery coming!
