[rocket]

tried on a pair while being at the honey hole and just saying that these are very comfy right out of the box….

Well, I saved the money to finally get these…. and my size, 9.5 EE Black is sold out. What a pisser.

Text from an email I got last night….

Giles, just received a pair of your Iron Heart/ Viberg engineer boots.  It's now the 6th pair of engineer boots I've bought from different companies. Yours are an outstanding quality, and are the only ones that fit perfectly.

Then he ordered another pair…...

I can believe it. I tried on the Lofgren's and the Road Champs today. I prefer mine, but the RC's are a damn close second.

[demonito]

cause the lofgrens are just lw's

Oh brother, not this tired trope again…

Dear Giles, dear fellow forum members,
I consider buying a pair of these fabulous boots. My only previous experience is of the No. 83 model ( I mean the very model depicted here) …

... which did fit perfectly in US9/EUR42, although it looked (but did not feel) somewhat wide ...

Are the Wild Ones built on the same last? Their box, as depicted here, states "83", but I read that this is the 2005 last. How do they fit in comparison? Should I consider the same size adequate?

^i have never tried any Viberg engineers but I have 240, 1035, 2030, and 2045 last all in 10.5

[Giles]

I would go the same size too…

[theorocks]

these are getting real comfy

[Anesthetist]

I am super envious Theo, I love that boot!

[Megatron1505]

The toe shape is one of the best around.

[browniemcghee]

Always bummed I missed these.  Still my favorite engineers.  I hesitated on the brown and it was gone.  The black would have been my preference, but they must have sold out ages ago, as I never saw them in stock.  If anyone wishes to part with a size 11E, preferably black, please PM me.

Last 3 pairs reduced to USD500…..

[seanocono]

A steal at that price

[eyeq8402]

Damn. The 10 is one size to small. These are a steal. Thinking of cutting off my big toe.

@seanocono:

What a steal … too bad, I have already a similar pair of Viberg Engineers in black.

I'm roughly a 10.5D brannock. 2030 in 10 works just about perfect. Will 10 in these work as well? I noticed a few people a few pages back saying that these ran smaller than 2030 boots.
