My two pairs of Yuketen Alan boots handmade in Mexico, one in khaki calf suede and the other in black calf, with Chicken. Two more months of wearing these exclusively for the Stitchdown Patina Thunderdome.

Thrilled with these new Chelseas. Viberg for Division Road in a CF Stead waxed suede. I wanted a boot for work and play that was somewhat hardy but could dress up. 2030, my favorite last. Ticked all the boxes. Very pleased after months of looking for the perfect build.

@Karol those are sweet!! How’s the sizing compared to Iron Rangers? Looking to maybe get some Nicks to turn into hiking boots.

[Mizmazzle]

@mclaincausey yea bro!! Dig that leather!!

[popvulture]

Yeah those Viberg chelseas are sweet, been eyeing those quite a bit lately. Luckily I haven't been able to find my size.

[mclaincausey]

Thanks fellas. I wish I could capture the color a little better. It’s a bit richer and darker than they appear. These are my first non-stitch down Vibergs and they are impeccable. Over the moon with em.

Cool welt

@Mizmazzle I go with the same size with Iron Ranger and the two Nicks that I have - builderpro and americana. They feel very similar despite the difference between 55 and HNW last.

[Mizmazzle]

@Karol thanks dude. Yes I’m looking at the HNW last Overlanders myself. Want room to be able to wear thicker socks for winter hiking as well. Do you find the sizing to be much different between the 55 last and the HNW?

[Dmart]

@mclaincausey They look great!

[Karol]

@Mizmazzle I have not noticed the difference between 55 and the HNW. Regarding the extra space, my thing is to size the boot for a thick sock, and put a woolen felt insert when I fancy to wear the boots with a thinner sock.
I just seen that Nicks has released video about lasts and sizing. Take a look, maybe it will be helpful.

Hi everyone, with getting older I have to face the fact that my feet change and I realised that in most of my boots the toes of my right food do not have enough width. I only wear Red Wing right now and have had nothing else besides a pair of indys a couple years ago. I am thinking of selling my RW except one pair that fits good and getting one or two new pairs. What can you recommend for a guy with slim heels, low instep and wide forefoot?

PS: here in Germany we do not have a bunch of widths to choose from, it's mostly all d for Red Wing...

[tody]

@FlavourFade Viberg Service Boots with the 2030 last come in an E width.

[FlavourFade]

Thanks @tody I will look into that
