Viberg really loves cap toes

That copper task looks very nice and i dig the toecaps. Not sure on the 310 last tho.

[tatmantall]

was not a fan of the 310 last I owned. It was love at first sight but once I had em…. not so much... would have rather just beat up a pair of regular toed boots and had the natural curvature that occurs. Just my humble $0.02 though. To those who like, enjoy!

I would've liked to see that boot on the 2045 last. The 310 looks a little clown-shoes to my eye. Beautiful leather though!

Hey H.! What size do you have in these?… as i ve tried them on and must they are really big in raw condition. I am a typical 33 - 34 but could wear a 30 - Raw in these!

Enjoy ya addiction!

Hey A. Im also a 33-34 (depending on thigh) in IH and went 34 with this. A hot soak and machine washed it shrinks to tag size.

Hope it helps..

I love the way they look (basically the Platonic ideal of "workboot") but I could never get used to how they felt to walk in, with the higher heel etc.  So I've decided the 2045 is the perfect compromise – enough of the classic workboot look (unlike the dressier 2030), but more comfortable to walk in.

I have the 310 last and would attests that its quite comfortable for walking. Leather soles with cats paw heels, walking in them long distance to and from my kids school. What I would add to it is a rubber sole to make it more versatile. Other than that no complaint here. Also you won't notice the sprung toe after a while.

^Beauties..  Horsehide?

[Friday]

Yes sir..

@Friday:

Yes sir..

I think Viberg's HH is my favorite boot leather of all time.  Better than the thinner shell, and waaay better than CXL.  It's thick and hardwearing like the oil tans, but has some richness to it like CXL.  And compare it with pics of White's HH, which gets all creased up right away.  I wish Viberg had more of it available…

Better than shell?!  Blasphemy!

Yeah, I know that would get me burned at the stake in some quarters…

[Bluegrass]

I've never seen or experienced shell, but I agree Viberg's HH is the nuts.

thanks to the incredible hulk G, i was able to change the buckles viberg used on my boots.

thanks giles!

[Giles]

Those transform the boot…
