          @Engineer:

          Am I crazy for ordering another pair?  😶 😢

          @BloodnThunder I figure as long as you can get your foot in, and they aren't painful, you should be good. 😃

          @Engineer agreed.  My foot slides in easy enough with a plastic bag inside the heel.  Aside from that there are the typical hotspots in certain places that are par for the course until the boots are broken in.  The nice thing about how these initially fit is the snugger fit in the forefoot has helped almost totally eliminate heel-slip.  So at least I don't have to worry about massive blisters on the back of my feet…..  But sometimes you gotta sacrifice the ride for the look....  And these look great.  I'm sure the ride will catch up soon enough.

            just back from the local (didn't even know we had one left) cobbler, since someone at Viberg missed to fully glue the inner half sole of my left boot.

                    @SLAB I just got mine and have no plans of doing it myself.  I did think about this though…..  When they eventually need a resole down the line I will almost undoubtedly send them to @BrianTheBootmaker and, if he is willing, have him point the side straps as well.

                            I covered about 10 miles / 16 km today, and that's not too uncommon an occurrence. So something reasonably comfortable is good.

                                  ^ definitely!

                                  I own both (Viberg Eng. & Foot Patrols) … and I would NEVER walk more than 5 miles in Engineers .. FP's  - maybe ?
                                  I think, considering such distances, I would tend to sport shoes.  🙂

                                        Thanks @rocket and @Finkster. I figured that Engineers wouldn't be that friendly to walking any distance, but thought that I'd ask first.

                                        I was wearing my Red Wings today, and covered a fair distance in them. Provided the boots fit and are reasonably comfortable I can cope. Something like a pair of Foot Patrols would be fine.

                                            yeah, if the fit is right, I wouldn't see a problem.

                                            And the FPs are lighter, more flexible, you can wear em with shorts, mean you are now not exactly living in a cold area….
