        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

        Hi, important is the last of this Boot!
        I have a Service Boot 1950 with a 2030 last and this last is in the front a little bit narrow.
        I wear in RW 875 US Size 10,5 and in Viberg with the 2030 last also 10,5 Viberg Size !!!
        In Viberg with a 110 last, I wear Viberg Size 10.
        I hope this helps.

          MightyMouse, this is almost exactly what a Viberg rep told me today.  The 2030 last runs a half size smaller than the listed size.  So a 2030, 10.5 is really a 10.

                I have took a new order at Viberg  🙂
                I ordered one shoe and one Boot, the shoe exactly how you can see on this picture:

                http://vibergboot.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/20121228-095823.jpg

                and this Boot with a new leather called "aged bark", only a little bit lighter:

                http://vibergboot.files.wordpress.com/2010/10/1483.jpg

                What do you think? A good choice ??
                If I got the "boots" i will show you some real pictures.

                        Same here.  Would look great as a service boot!

                            ^ This. I'm kinda surprised people don't see that kind of leather in the same way as a pair of pre-faded jeans.

                              I believe it's what aged bark leather will look like when abused for a long period of time as this is what it looks like when relatively new:

                                  I'm quite liking both this boot and the leather.

                                    i thought also this picture would be the aged bark, but viberg send me a picture of the aged bark and
                                    it´s more darker. i can show you later a picture

                                        It's either the Aged Bark or the Copper Task. They're comparable colors, so it's hard to say for sure without know who this boot belongs to.

                                            Finally got my hands on my Boondockers.  They fit perfectly.  I was sweating it out the entire time, but I chose wisely with the 9UK.
