@Chris:

really interested if it was at half height thou

[demonito]

i suggest we do an engineer boot with either the upturned last or the standard last. with a single tone color BUT with 2 different leather and the specail old school roller buckles and maybe a nice cuban heel

[demonito]

[demonito]

[SpaceGnome]

[natehate]

[Giles]

I suspect they'll go fast….

[astrogoji]

just ordered  been lusting after this pair since I saw it months ago

[Guest]

I'd jump all over those if it wasn't winter.

So it's that rubber sole right?  Id buy em if it didn't have that heel.  Please tell me I am misinterpreting it wrong and the first or second pic is the exact boot

[astrogoji]

dirty, it's the first one:

it has a leather sole. the other two are vintage models from the wwII era for comparison purposes. you can read more about the boondocker here on horween's site if you are so inclined

should have mine in a week so i'll snap some pics for you all

Yup ty…I spoke to them ..If I am a 12 but like and buy my boots a half to a size smaller for a snug fit as well as to give the impression my feet are smaller than they are...would a 10.5 or an 11 be best?

[natehate]

how much do your toes hate you?

[Chris]

Yeah, that seems like a bad idea.  But if you're dead set on using your boots to do a modern version of Chinese foot binding, go with the 10.5.  Vibergs use UK sizing, which in my experience is one size smaller than US.  Thus, your correct size in Viberg boots would be an 11.:)

[astrogoji]

Dirty,

I am also a US 12, and like Chris said I opted for the foot binding 10.5 UK size    might be snug but I think with plain toe boots such as these (no toe cap to break up the length) it may work out better that way.
