    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.

          Oh brother, not this tired trope again…

          Think it, be it.

            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) …
            http://blog.burgundschild.com/post/37798707553

            ... 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 would go the same size too…

                      The toe shape is one of the best around.

                        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.

                            A steal at that price

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

                                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.

                                      I'm not sure, sorry, I don't think I have anything with the 2030 last. I took a 9.5D in these and a 9D in the IHVB 04, I also took a 9D for the IHVB 03 but realise now that I should have had the 9.5, not sure that helps much.

                                        Do it, give it to me and we'll both be set.

                                          Decided to give these a try in 10. Hopefully they work out…couldn't say no at that price!
