      @Finkster , @chiverus , @trail and arrow , @Bluegrass - Thanks!!!  It's sort of taken over as a hobby at the moment… 😃

      @BrownIcon - Mine are fully lined, so I'd think the stretch potential is pretty low.  They do soften up, though.  The "Waxed Flesh" leather is just waxed chromexcel roughout, I think, which is known for being stretchy.  I think it's the lining that's going to prevent a lot of stretch.

        ^Mine are fully lined, as well. The only difference is, aside from the last [ie, nailed down + "mountain last", as per Brett], the shafts are smooth side out.

        Yeah, I could get in w/ medium weight socks. 'Banking on the fact that the waxed flesh will behave like regular CXL to give me that extra pliancy for a more comfy wear👍🏼,  post break in … otherwise, they'd be on the 'bay😁

          @BrownIcon - If they don't stretch enough on their own, you could always have a cobbler stretch them a little.  Have any pictures of yours?

                They're ugly as sin, but these Reebok work boots with a composite toe are the most comfortable work boots I've ever owned. They come in 2 shades of tan and this sage green.

                        These Frye's have had a lot of wear and not enough love, as evident by the hole worn in the upper.  About seven years old.

                                  Update:  Styleforum x Viberg Pre-Sale for the HOPPER is UP!!!
                                  Note: There seem to be a shortage of Cats Paw half-soles, so there's a possibility of switching to the 705__ heels will still be Cats Paw.
