Mister Freedom

Davito, do you have any idea how many runs there have been? Mine didn't come in a cool box like that but in a silkscreened bag. If I had the scratch I would pick up another pair, especially if the leather was different.

[davito]

officially I believe 2 atm and the third to come officially but there have probably been some adjustments between in production. I do not have the box too only the old school bag.
the newer ones are coming in a denim selvedge bag without box afaik

first run with box and bag

That dude has a serious collection of Engineers and it's high praise that the RCs put them in the back seat. Waiting on these will be tense, especially since the sizing is such an unknown for me.

VEB is THE engineer guy probably worldwide

what is your usual size and what size you went for?

[superfuzz]

mine are the second run then. I really love these boots. I'm thinking about getting a pair of Viberg engineers next.

happy dance

[mclaincausey]

Super, there were some sick ones on Rakuten… Not sure if the size is right or for that matter the price, I think it was just one pair.

if you are half size down and wear good socks you should be fine. if they are tight wear em with thin socks or barefeet til they are broken in you will get a bit of stretch

[superfuzz]

Davito, go a half size down on the Vibergs from my RCs? I'm not buying anything else any time soon. Just thinking about it.

[davito]

with Viberg I would recommend to get in touch with Giles here or with Viberg directly, they are the professionals. I wear all my Vibergs in UK8 standard width I like comfy shoes with enough room at the toes so its not everybody's taste

my RC are US8

thanks for the helpful links d.!

[superfuzz]

Thanks, Davito. I thought about going to the Viberg pop-up here in NYC last month to talk to them about sizing, but was afraid I'd wind up spending money I don't have! BTW, where did you get those Bucos? So nice!

[davito]

very welcome. I just noted that even the old school bags in the first runs might be different. There are bags with a sewing machine print and others like mine with MF L.A. lettering

[davito]

VMC Zurich buddy I was very honoured to get em with the first shipment they received this year

[superfuzz]

My bag has just the Mister Freedom lettering too. I carry my coffee thermos and lunch in it!
