@Shoreman:

Would consider selling my 1950s mocha service boot, (5 wears) 10.5 UK for the right price. Hit me up.
(Perfect for someone looking to get in on the HWBC)

Photos?  Is that a 11 or 11.5US

Here you go. (And take the time to show off my pair.)

IHVB-01 Summary
Hunting for the lucky last person on the BLACKFROSTT/Natural sole. Who's it going to be?

If the lucky last person doesn't show up, IHVB-01 being run by Giles gets 3 backers (BLACKFROSTT, tatmantall, and Snowy).

Are you guys wearing dress socks or thicker socks with your Vibergs?

@misterjuiceman:

it's always a matter of how you've sized your boots!…I can only wear thin-normal (TFA) socks with my 8.5 4HSxViberg service boots, but wearing the thickest socks I own, I can easily fit my size 9 IHVB-01 (more room in the toe section as the 4HS)...
so imo if you size correct and if the toe section allows it, you can even wear thicker socks with your boots!

Owners of these 50s Service Boots:

Just checked through the thread again and am a bit confused about sizing for the different models.
For this type is about half a size down as compared to say Red Wing Iron Rangers, i.e. if I have the Iron Ranger in US 11, I'd size these UK (standard Viberg sizing) 10.5?

edited for more precise sizing question

[Giles]

OK People.

If you are OK with the Portland sole, we are up to 4….....

So:

Me
BLACKFROST
tatmantall
snowy

Yes?

[Snowy]

YES!!!!

There's 1 PM outstanding from me about, payments, and sizes. So there maybe another order, if we can hold off for a day or so….Am sure they'll all publicly post when ready :).

EDIT: izham comes through with the goods!!!!!! The crowd goes wild.

[tatmantall]

Is there a pic of Portland sole around? Between night classes and just saw the post.

[tatmantall]

Nvm previous post Portland would be fine with me… Either way I'm in

[Snowy]

@tatmantall, you got me google searching. IHVB-01 with Portland Sole = Below = PERFECT!

Jesus that's a beast

[tatmantall]

Hot diggity dawg… That thing looks bad to the bone...

SO ARE WE ALL IN FOR THE PORTLAND SOLE FELLAS?

@snowwy, this is dope!, i definitely GO for this. put my name on it, but just curious about the sizing, as per conversation with you 8 1/2 is the ideal size, i will ask around.

[tatmantall]

One other question I knew frost originally had mentioned it being the black denim… Are we still doing black denim or is it indigo now?

[Snowy]

Pretty sure BLACKFROSTT was trying to say Black Leather Indigo Denim Scout Boot, but condensed it down to "blk denim scout boot". Urb's IHVB-01's which were the reference being quoted as identical, other than the sole, have Indigo Denim.

Knowing how slowly I break-in IH denim, I imagine it'll be years before the indigo starts lightening up, if it's indigo :).

That said, whatever G's got in mind black or indigo is fine with me :D.
