Viberg

@Cold:
Hey guys, I'm interested in some Viberg service boots in the 2030 last, I've got a few questions:
- I wear 11.5 in shoes like Vans, Converse, and PF Flyers. Am I correct that I'd want a 10.5 in these?
- I've read some stuff (I think on StyleForum) saying that the Service Boot looks weird in sizes larger than 9.5 or so, and I've seen a few examples that look "off". Does anyone here have a pair of 2030 Service Boots somewhere around 10.5, that could give me a good idea how they look?
- What are alternatives I should consider? I want a slim profile boot with a cap toe and Dainite sole, somewhere between a more rugged style and a dressier style, which will look good with slim fitting jeans. I LOVE the look of the RRL Livingston boot, which nails what I'm looking for, but at $990, they're way overpriced. I'd be open to something like the Red Wing Beckman, but I don't mind paying right around the Viberg price range.
@Cold Summer I'm a certified Bigfoot (size 12 Viberg) and imho they don't look weird. I have service boots in brown cxl with a cap toe and they are fantastic.

look biggish . -

Word of warning ordering Vibergs without trying on first…I got a pair of 2030 service boots a short while ago in a 7.5. I'm a UK7 - 7.5 in all my other boots (Trickers, C & J). Never been happy with how the Vibergs fit, slightly too big. Ordered mine from Cultizm as I wanted the Oak RO, the 7.5 was the smallest size they had and initially I thought they would be ok but having worn them a couple of times they are definitely a half size too long. Obviously can't exchange them with the retailer now and would appreciate any advice on how to get them to fit better, the 2030 is to shallow for any innersoles I've tried..

Got my boots today! Went with a 10.5, these are a great fit - about the same size as my Flat Head and Lofgren boots.
Really blown away by these boots - the quality is incredibly, no flaws in sight. I love the color (#8 Chromexcel), the Dainite sole, the waxed black laces - these are such a nice balance between classy and badass. And, although this seems to be an unpopular opinion, I love the Goodyear welt construction and the natural welt's contrast with the upper. Gives them a bit of a classier look compared to the workboot aesthetic of stitchdown - just what I was going for. It'll probably be a while before I buy more boots, but these probably won't be my last pair of Vibergs!

@Cold Summer what denim are you wearing? Glad the boots worked out.
Always good stuff from @Jordan23

They're 3Sixteen ST-120x with 5+ months of wear and one wash! Great jeans.

This thread has been delivering the goods again as of late! Cold Summer, I totally love your new boots. I have the stitchdown version and either way the leather is just the greatest thing. Sometimes the 2030 last feels a shade tight on my right foot but I can't bear to part with such nice boots.
I'm currently considering copping a third pair of Vibergs. Everytime I think I've got out…

great pair @Cold Summer
