IHVB-05 - The Wild Ones - Iron Heart/Viberg Engineer Boot Collaboration

[Joule]

No, I don't own any Viberg(yet)…but know my size 12 Lofgren was too small.

[Spring Son of Light]

Ahh ok. So you would probably take G's advice and go a half size down to 12.5 for the Vibergs.

Im trying to decide between the D and the EE, I'm fairly confident the UK12 is good for length. Just got some wolverines in a 13D which is good for length but could be ever so slightly wider. Any actual width measurements or advice on these yet?

[Giles]

Nothing yet I am afraid.  However PM jordan23, he has tried the samoples on and thus is in the best position to comment…

when did that happen?

[Giles]

Ask him

[Finn666]

def. will…

[samnz]

Based on the Vibram size chart you posted i decided to size up a half size to the 12.5D, I think that will be a better option then going for the 12EE, I look forward to them in the flesh.

[Giles]

Cool…..

[Spring Son of Light]

So who has placed a pre-order? I just did, and already feel so cool about myself I had the urge to go start a bar fight.

Can't wait for these!

Which color did you go with?

[Spring Son of Light]

@superfuzz:

Which color did you go with?

Brown all the way. Black isn't for me plus my whole wardrobe is coordinated around brown leather.

[superfuzz]

Good call!

[zatenm]

Any possibility of a pic showing what the brown leather looks like?

[Giles]

It is the same leather as these.  That's the best I can do until I get a sample…

Good enough! Thanks G

These are tuff.

Really like these boots. I'd be saving for a pair of Road Champs but these are a tempting proposition. Hope there's another run in the summer as it'll take me 'till then to save up. By then, there'll be examples of pairs with wear so I can compare and contrast patina, etc.

A bit of a random question here..
Does this style of boot make jeans sit funny due to the height?
Thanks!

Good question. Anyone fit their devils over rider boots?
