          I'm a size 10us in most stuff and take a 9 in Viberg. I measure 10 on right and 10.5 on left on a brannock device. But the leather on those engineers is fuckin ace!! No shit!! Soft horse hide. Mine above are the same leather. Shits like crack for jonesing feet!!

          Mind you, all my 2045 last fit spot on!! Just not sure about the 2005 last so I opt out for those engineers. I really liked the shorter idea. For me very very attractive! But yeah, like Rafa said! I think I would own 4 pairs given half a chance!!

          Really hope Viberg bust more out like them when I'm up on cash flow..

              should I assume this is why you are selling your outerwear

                    ok, let me put it this ways:

                    nope, not at all buddy!
                    not going to buy a new pair in the last days of 2013 (and that is a fact!).

                    better ? 😉

                      Haha. Okay, I believe that. Besides, you have Cordovan Vibergs. Pretty hard to do anything else now, right?

                          Yes mate, a heavyweight black Horsehide from Japan's famous Shinki Leather Tannery. For something heavyweight, it's surprisingly soft and comfortable. Not like you I only have 4 pairs, but you know what, I have never got a blister wearing them in. Even my Brown wax flesh is thick and tuff, and no blisters or soreness of feet.

                            Viberg got back to me regarding sizing on the Horse engineers …suggested they are a full size bigger and that I would most likely take a 9 (from my usual US 10)

                              that's what they always say…I wear a "stamped" 9 (=US10) in all my vibergs (US9 in red wing) and never had any issues! that's just me though. others can tell you another, 3rd story about how you "should" size or not...

                                Just my two cents on sizing: I think the full down rule becomes less reliable at size 10 UK and up. Not sure why. I'm only a half size down in Viberg (I've only ever tried on two different lasts, but still), I'm usually 11-11.5 in US sizing depending on the type of shoes. Viberg 10.5 is just right, though I'm sure I could comfortably wear an 11. Bigger feet are big.

                                  if what you meant was from a US10 to a US9, i think its a bit risky bearing in mind that Viberg engineers/pull up boots tend to be a bit tight around the instep area. But if sizing one down to the stamped UK sizing as what Finn had mentioned, its going to fit you fine. Also you need to consider the kind of socks you're going to wear as well. My 2 shillings.

                                    I'm a 9.5D digitally measured by Red Wing and a roomy 8.5D on Viberg. Feet are weird, Rafa's a half size up on Viberg and a half size down on RW from me.

                                    Think it, be it.
