      I believe it's what aged bark leather will look like when abused for a long period of time as this is what it looks like when relatively new:

          I'm quite liking both this boot and the leather.

                It's either the Aged Bark or the Copper Task. They're comparable colors, so it's hard to say for sure without know who this boot belongs to.

                    Finally got my hands on my Boondockers.  They fit perfectly.  I was sweating it out the entire time, but I chose wisely with the 9UK.

                        I am between 9.5-10 US so I was thinking that I should have gone with an 8.5 in the Viberg.  Most of my UK shoes are size 9, but I do have a couple of pairs that are 8.5 UK.  I ordered the Boondockers in December, but had them sent to my parents' house so I didn't try them on until yesterday.  Viberg agreed to leave me extra time to return them if necessary, but in the meanwhile all of the 8.5s were sold so I needed these to fit.

                          Thanks… Would you reckon an 8uk will fit you as well but maybe with less room for the toe?

                            Friday-  I do not think that the 8UK would fit, and it would be a very tight fit with the 8.5, if I wore slightly thick socks.  I hope that helps.

                                      I'm obviously not the only one who thinks that maybe we (read: Viberg Boot Mfg. Ltd.) should consult some of the other shoe makers out there to establish a more steadfast sizing system. Much like some of the other independents out there, our variety of lasts is carefully considered and each have their own characteristics. Surely there are comparisons to be made! I mean, wouldn't it be nice to know what size you are in a given last from one manufacturer and be able to translate that with relative ease to another?

                                        but i dont see that being a easy task
                                        one thing ive noticed a few people talking about around here lately is sizing on your engineer boots?
                                        id assume a 310 last in a serive and a 310 in a engineer would fit the same?

                                          Right you are. I mean, the Engineer is a significantly taller boot, at 9" or 11", without the give that the lace provides on the 6" Service Boot. But, once your foots in there, the sizing is the same.
