      Arrrrrrrrrgh! They are 1/2 size too big!!!!!!!  😠

      @czarofny:

      Just ordered a pair in 9.5. Now I have to play the painful waiting game. I suck at that game…but almost always win in the end 🙂

      Oh noes! Am sure now you've had them in your hands you realize how amazing they are and will want another pair in your size. The joy of the hunt.

                  Man, Viberg has upgraded their packaging considerably in the last year.  My last pair came in a plain brown cardboard box.

                    First pair of Vibergs.  All I can say is, wow.  The quality is like nothing I've ever experienced before.  I was expecting them to be pretty awesome, considering what they cost, and man am I not disappointed.

                    Special thank you to Winchy for taking time out from a family gathering to drop them round to me this evening (after dinner!) while he was in south London.  Top man.

                        Shoes came in today and I the size was spot on! Only within ten minutes I managed to f… one of the laces up. I assumed one pair was spare and I could do with one length and cut one in half before lacing them up. Man I´m dumb!  Now I have to buy me some new leather laces.  For now some ugly ass cotton laces to replace. The boots are fantastic though..

                          denim,  If you are buying something from us soon, let me know and we will pop a pair in the package for you FOC.  We support, empathise and sympathise with feckin dumb….

                              G - what's the accepted way of tying the laces on these?  Sounds like a dumb question, but would you wrap once and tie, or cut to size and tie without the wrap?

                              I'm currently going with the former, but am erring towards the latter.  Shame to cut such lovely laces though…

                                This is my approach:

                                If laces are long and I can wrap, I do.
                                If laces are not long enough to wrap, then I don't
                                If I can't be arsed to thread through top eye, I wrap and tie

                                Keep them as long as poss, then if you break one (or cut one in half by "mistake" - whoops, sorry denim….), then the remainder remains more useful until you can replace.

                                  Just got these in a 9..
                                  They are simply beautiful!
                                  Is it normal to smell them like a crazed maniac? And be to afraid to try them on?

                                    Exactly!!!! So close yet…it's like blue-balls with boots 🙂

                                    I'll just have to be patient for 3-4 months. They are worth it.

                                          I never bought anything from ironheart.co.uk before. It also shows "endangered," so I wasn't sure as to the relationship between an endangered product and the possibility of future restocks.

                                          It wasn't my intention to jump to sudden conclusions, but thank you for your clarification. I have filled out the restock form. Really looking forward to these boots!

                                          Cheers

                                            Emptiness, no worries, the difference between endangered and extinct is pretty difficult to get until you've been through it a few times.
