Viberg

[Bluegrass]

I snagged a pair of the short shaft horsies too - nice score.  They are awesome - only issue I had was the back of the shafts hit me in an odd spot and rubbed some blisters - but that can be remedied with tall socks and time/callouses.

And Rocket, I like the red boots - really - including the soles.  You can pull it off.

They do indeed feel awesome. I did sorta have to squeeze my 666s over them, but it works. They are making me feel the need for a 40s/50s style cut.

NIce looking short shift boots, photos makes me want one!

Those short shaft HHs are ridiculously nice, SSoL. Congrats, man (and Bluegrass).

Oh and the 55-UHR would be perfect for those.

nice boots spring of light! how did you size those? there is a size 10 on the site ….I take a us 10 usually but have been informed I'm probably  a 9 or 9.5 in viberg again man killer

[Bluegrass]

i am normally a size 13 US and I got a 12 UK in the horsey engineers and the fit is spot on. I am a 12.5 in White's if that helps you.

also I'm I correct in assuming the new Iron heart /viberg colab will be the same shape boot profile etc except not horsehide ? also the IH/Viberg is 9inch  I think I'm going to try and score the IH/viberg colab

[theorocks]

Yes 9" with same (2005) last. Perhaps some other subtle differences too, I think.

Yea guys I'm a US 11 or 11.5 but I have narrow feet. 10.5 across the board in viberg.

FUCK yes to the 55 UHR! I filled out my form many moons ago

[Scottystyles]

Great score on those 8" engineers SSofL! So jealous! They look killer!

My service boots are the same Shinki HH. Awesome stuff!
