      I get it fuzz, makes sense.  and urb, 9E would prob be a good bet.  It is hit or miss on the 2nds but sometimes the stuff that pops up is really good.  hit or miss, need to be diligent.

        Right now they've got a pair of Foot Patrols in my size in Burlap rough out.  I go to look at them every day, and I'm still not sure whether I'll be disappointed or relieved if they get sold before my self restraint cracks.

          Watch that 2nds site! I swear it feels like stealing if you happen to find something you like in your size.  A buddy of mine just got a pair of brown domain boss boots that spec'd out over $600 for ~$300.  I personally "stole" a pair of brown packers for ~$280.  My experience has been the blemishes are barely noticeable and typical of the wear and tear you might get in any case after some normal use.  Just saying…

          Take this man's advice. I'm just still unsure of my size. I had a pair a few years ago but I ended up returning them.

          I'm an 8.5E in whites, 8.5E in Alden TrueBalance, and usually an 8.5 in Viberg's forgiving lasts(not the 2030).

          I feel like I should be a 9E.

          General advice that i was given was to go .5 bigger then your Viberg size. I was told the same with Whites tho and it looks like u are the same in both lol???

            I'll suggest the 2nds site as well. I picked up what I assume are the IH/Wesco Brown Roughout Foot Patrols for $280. There's a scuff on the lining on one of the boots which shouldn't ever cause any issues. There was another pair of Burlap Roughtouts that I really considered as well.

                These are my Packers, built like tanks with the standard brown leather.

                    I think that's the western toe, which comes standard on the packer.

                      MP with Vibram Christy! I'm interested to see what that combo looks like.

                        Yes, standard Packer/Western toe…

                            @JCMx800 That double midsole looks kind of wack, but otherwise, totally awesome. What leather did you get?

                              It looks a little bit off, you are right. I choosed single midsole and the black tie domain, 7" height, again nothing fancy, but will be a great BWC boot 🙂

                                      They really dont suit me.
                                      Strange, my back hurts when I wear Vans over a too long time and my back feels good when I put on my boots.

                                        Honestly I don't know if the engineers hurt my back, it just seems to feel the best when I wear Birkenstocks or Blundstones.

                                          I'm excited to see this combo too. Was thinking it might be nice with a 10" height. Come to think of it, I don't think I've seen any MP Packers above 8"…

                                          Does anyone know if the Armortred or Christy soles get proportionally thicker/thinner as they go up or down in size? My Wesco boots are small, so if the thickness is consistant though all sized they might be crazy chunky.
