IHVB-05 - The Wild Ones - Iron Heart/Viberg Engineer Boot Collaboration
-
wow….8.5 black? that actually might be my size...
-
I'm guessing so…
-
Every pair now has "24 items in stock" …
-
MC ride, hanging out, 4 wheeler ride and a beer. Pretty perfect weekend.
-
If I ever require new boots they will most likely be these or Wesco Boss…..luckily we have a one stop shop here
-
I just sold a pair of boots….can I operate a one in, one out policy?
-
I do.
Sometimes I operate on a "one out, two in" system. Whatever fits the current need.

Mine arrived a couple of days ago, they look great and feel great when on, Walked a good few kilometers and no hint of blisters.
Getting them on and off takes a bit of a commitment. First time I had to do the old plastic bag over my socks trick. Easing up a bit now but still a ways off being able to throw them on in a hurry in the morning.

Well, I can tell you that Curtis Mayfield "Move On Up" was jamming in the background…

Ok, I've been a bit shit out of luck with sizing on these. I'm a size 9 in 2045. 1035, 2030, 110(which was a tad wide but workable), and 310(my other engineers) Viberg lasts. These unfortunately I copped a 9 and tried working them in thinking they would give a bit up front. They did, but not as much as I would like as I get that annoying big toe touching. Not sore, but just touching. Measured up against all my other lasts sole to sole I would say they are .5mm shorter as well. In my honest opinion I would say the 9 in these is a 8.5.
So, if they is anybody out there in IH land having a too big issue in the brown pm me please if your keen for a swap. I'm looking for a 9.5D to swap with my 9D.
I have been wearing them quite a lot. They are well worn in, but not trashed. so if someone else's are newer we could come to some arrangement. I also trimmed the strap as It was way too long once I did them up as I have a lower instep and need them snug for no heel slippage.
Really held of having to do this as I love them heaps and did not want to let them go. I could keep bearing the fit, but I would end up getting the worn spot on the outside big toe look. Tbh, I hate the toe bulges on a shoe/boot fit up front.
