^ they are NICE [emoji1417] May I ask what brand/style?

[RMugele]

Beck Boots from Amarillo, did a custom order. Very happy with the experience, they get some cool horween leathers in as well. Right now they have a heavyweight Horween Driftwood leather I am drooling over.

My only issue with Becks is the use of a plastic heel stand (which is what I call it)….

Yeah Im indifferent about it, pretty sure they wouldn't hesitate to put a natural material there if requested. Its the spur ledge so I am sure there is a reason they opt for that material, they seem very utilitarian in general.

'Used to have apprehensions taking on Viberg 1035 due to fEEt size

As it turns out, this particular last is the most versatile across [all?] of Vibergdom, IMO.  The shape of the toe allows more forefoot access.  A great feature for true E-E+ folks like me.

Though not as sleek as 2030, 1035 unstructured & partially structured has lower profile toe …even the fully structured toe is still lower, as compared to 2040/2045/110/310.  As such, aesthetics work on both__ more casual make up__ as well as rugged, work-inspired urban steez ... like the Boondockers.  Of course, for [[b]real] outdoorsy or work-related activities, I still would much prefer the comfort of a 110 or 2045 … just saying

Toe-to-toe comparison between the 2005 1st & 2nd versus the 1035:  2005s are unstructured & 1035s are partially structured.

If I'm a 8EE in White's and Red Wings, what size should I order in the 1035 last?  any thoughts @BrownIcon?

[bryaneidins70]

The pair with the green laces look lovely. Great work.

[BrownIcon]

@bryaneidins70 Thanx, Bryan!

@bubbapest 8EE on w/c? SD or SJ? … As I'm usually a size down 1/2 from SJ to SD__ as such, SJ=1035, for me. A caveat, though, 1035 is single E, if u seek for more room up front, 110 [EE] is your friend … in w/c case, SD=110

Can't get over how Viberg, when they have to, can put out the sexiest curves, IMO, on a pair of boot heels.

Had my share of "standard" heels from White's, w/c for me, is a bit of an extreme taper … while the woodsman, is just too stilt-y.

Russell Moccasin Safari Boots, could do with a clean I think.

They're Danners, the Mountain Light II Black. They have a one-piece leather upper with a Gore-Tex liner. Luckily they feature the more durable Vibram Kletterlift outsole rather than the softer and spongier Gumlite.
