      fwiw every single pair with a bit of room to wiggle them toes. I would say go with your normal Viberg sizing if they're comfortable fit wise for you. By the end of the day, most probably you would end up with extra insole which is better than if its to small. Good luck pP.

      Viberg 9, Wesco 10, RW 10, Yuketen 9.5, Whites 9D (an E would be perfect), Chucks 10.

        Hey G,

        Since we're asking all of these sizing questions, here's a weird one, but if it requires contacting Wesco please don't bother (for now). I'm just asking to satisfy my curiosity and thought you might have an answer.

        I have a custom fit form on file with Wesco, and therefore don't actually know my own size. Whenever I've ordered a pair of boots, I just use my customer ID number and they make boots that fit me perfectly. If I were to ever order a pair of the IHXWesco boots, would I be able to get them made to my custom measurements they have on file?

        Thanks!

                        I don't have any Wescos (yet) but Brandon (Bakers) suggested that I should order the same size as White's.  I'm a 12 in Viberg and 12.5 in White's. I resisted the urge to pull the trigger at that time proving it is possible for me to exercise restraint (in the short term).

                        Half size up eh? What size are you in Vans or Chucks?

                        I'm 13 in Chucks, but they don't make a 12.5.

                              There is a 50:50 chance we'll have it tanned and made up into a boot for Bread & Butter & Fish 'n' Chips

                                After I have taken the last couple of pairs of Wild Ones, my commercial relationship with Viberg will end.  Basically as they change their business model, doing the sort of stuff I/we want/need is not something they wish to pursue.

                                I wish them much luck, we have done some great builds together.

                                I really need a relationship with a good boot company that compliments Iron Heart, so on the basis that Viberg was a no go, I had to look elsewhere, and quite frankly, there were not too many places to look.

                                I have formed a partnership with Sascha and Tobias of Vater & Sohn and we are now the exclusive European distributor for Wesco – I simply do not have the bandwidth to do this on my own and I could think of no two greater guys to join me in this great adventure..  We are all super excited about this.  We have 3 builds already in place and 4 more in the pipe.  Plus, and this is where I get seriously over-excited, we have a new leather, never before available anywhere being made for us as I type.  It will of course be exclusive to us…..

                                This ride is going to be so good…..

                                I hope you will join us in the fun.

                                Do you know when we might expect to see some of the new boots..?

                                Showing at BBB and F 'n' C in July.  Availability will start September…..
