Thanks guys,just a bit nerve wracking spending this much on a pair of boots without trying them on.I have weird feet so i'm hoping they're going to be OK without knowing how wide they are going to be and how Viberg sizes come up.If they don't fit they'll end up on here for sale…......

[mclaincausey]

What size are they?

[Simon H]

They are a Viberg 9 (which i understand is a UK9 but comes up a bit big).I am a US10 in trainers and have wide feet…...Its a bit of a Lottery.......I could have bought a Viberg size 10 but i think they would be a bit too big (if i am correct in my research).I almost considered buying both pairs and selling whichever pair didn't fit on here but i was worried about how much i was going to get stung on import duty.The good news is i have had a result on that front so i shoulda bought both but hindsight is a wonderful thing...

[Simon H]

i am in the UK btw,the only reason i measure my feet as a US10 is because i mostly wear trainers and US sizes are more common in trainers.

Lovely boots Simon, here is a really useful chart to help you measure your feet http://www.boot.com/bsizcvt.htm#WhyMeasure - use the brick/book method its most accurate.

got the 3sixteen/viberg collabo incoming! just paid deposit for the re-run, as they sold out pretty fast.. that chromepak leather seems very tasty indeed.

[TresUnCool]

I'm waiting on word for the deposit.

I tried this Boot on and I can say, this Boot is very big! I wear in Viberg UK 10 (last 110, 2040, 310) and UK 10.5 at last 2030. In this Boot I had a Size UK9!!
I hope this Boot will fit you !!!!!!

One day of wearing Tender's indigo socks with my Vibergs.

[Simon H]

Here they are,literally a perfect fit!

[mclaincausey]

Those are among my favorite Vibergs that I've seen.  Happy they fit so well, enjoy them!

[Aries]

Beautiful, enjoy mate!

Simon H…what last are those? Which leather? They are looking good on your feet.
Thanks,

[Aries]

Correct me if wrong Simon, but khaki8 - I believe the last is a unique makeup for Cabourn.

If these were a 10 I'd be all over it.

OK, I have a weird experience and I wanted to see if this has happen to anyone else.

I have the copper task Smokejumper collabs, and they were fucking stiff as shit the first time I wore them the other day.  Today they feel totally different.  They are considerably more broken in.  I was expecting them to take about 5 wears at the very least to get glove soft, now I am wondering…  They feel so different already, I think they're most of the way to being broken in--still some stiffness, but wow, what a difference.

Did one of you assholes break into my house and "borrow" my boots yesterday and walk 50 miles in them?

It COULD be that they were close to this by the time I took them off the other day but I really don't think so.  Odd.  A pleasant surprise at any rate.
