        I looked at @rocket 's picture above and immediately went and put on a pair of jeans and threw on my pair of engineers.  Just seeing a picture of the wild ones makes me want to wear em.

          I am new to this forum so this is my first post.  Now that many of you have received your boots, I was wondering if you could provide sizing advice.

          I wear a 10 on the Viberg 110 last and own the Viberg x SF "Sleek Hunter" Scout boot on the 2030 last in 10.5.  What size would you recommend for me for the Wild Ones boot on both the D and EE widths (2005 last)?  More info: my foot width is average (neither wide nor narrow).

          Thank you!

            lol, but I can kinda understand it….. I only got the chance to wear them for a 2 mile walk until now. All other times it was so damn hot over here and shorts and boots, you know...

                Thanks, Rocket.  Would 10.5D apply to both the D and EE widths?  I assume the EE has a lot more volume so wonder if I should to size down the way I did from the 2030 (E width) to the 110 (EEE width).

                  10.5D is a D width… I have the feeling that a 10.5EE could be too roomy, just my opinion. Footwear sizing can be tricky, some like them snug, others roomy..... I guess you get my point...

                  Also if you take a min and read through the whole thread, there are several sizing postings, just read them, to get a idea how others sized them.

                  I have a pair in the 110 last in tagged 7 fitting on the snug site and went with a 8D in these and they fit perfect. So based from this, I'm pretty sure a 10.5D could do the trick. But it is still a "could"...

                    @putgildain I'd say take the 10EE if those boots in a 110 fit you well (there's no 10D in stock), also considering a lot of people go up one half from their usual size for the 2030 last (like you did). Just my two cents though…

                    EDIT: just noticed the 10EE is gone so follow rocket's advice instead  😉

                      Thanks, guys.  I did go back and read the thread.  As with most Viberg threads, sizing experience seems all over the place.  I read that these boots are hard to get on and off.  Wondering if ideally you go with the wider fitting to help getting them on and off?  but maybe it does not matter.

                        If you have a average width feet, imo a 10.5D is equal to a 10EE and will result in more or less the same fitting.

                        Some reported this and needed to use the plastic bag trick.
                        Personal I had no problem at all to get them on and off is also not really a struggle.  And it's leather so they will stretch some what anyway…

                        Sizing footwear online without a personal try is just a pain in the ass....

                          Thanks again, Rocket.  I agree – sizing without trying shoes/boots on is not the optimal strategy.  But Viberg and all of its lasts are not readily available so it is sometimes the best we can do.

                            you are welcome and yeah sure, just doing research and getting a personal idea out of it, does def minimize a miss, in this hit and miss game…

                              @putgildain I wouldn't worry about the difficulty of getting them on and off.  Mine were not easy to get on and off for the first week or so but since then it has been very easy.  After only like 5 days of decent wear they have already molded a good amount and broke in well.  For the first few wears, if you can get them on, with a bag or not, and your feet aren't in agony after 30 minutes I think you'll be golden.

                                      Whoever snatched up those 10.5D in the black, if you let them go now then that will be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you. And I will kill you.
