      Diaz uk9 will be too big in viberg imho. I wear a comfy us8.5 in RW 875 and comfy uk8 in my viberg engineer, service boot and ironworker. Depending on the style and your foot some go even down to uk7.5 for a snug fit. Doublecheck your sizing with viberg

      Cheers,

        random but i meet our very own jesselirola with the viberg dudes at the pop-up shop.  all were very nice & here's a brief story in relation to how chill these folks are.

        i'm in the pop-up during a lull in foot traffic just having a random conversation with andrew from 3sixteen and these dudes walk in.  i'm pretty hood and really don't pay any attention to them coming in while i'm talking about the product and the laces in a particular oxford.  to make a long story short, the guys walking in were the viberg team & lirola. i give lirola sh!t about some randomness as i usually do and tell the viberg dudes about the laces being really a good look.  on the spot they unlace the display pair and give me the laces i was admiring & then grab another pair of laces from the back of the shop and pass them to me.yes, it's a very small gesture, but mind you i bought nothing and they really have no idea if i support their brand or am just a hanger on or curious person passing through. to me it just goes to show it's nothing like direct contact with folks to see if you want to enrich them buy purchasing their products.

        will find an image of the laces and put up in a few, but you all know how my in a fews go . . .

                      thanks for the tips davito. from my friends knowledge sharing,I do get the understanding that uk8.5 would be good too,maybe just the type of fitting will differ,snug,comfy,loose. but from my experience with the Iron ranger which is US8.5 and that cork sole, I find the sole not that comfy,so I should've sized up and get a padded insole in them.
                      but for christy sole,they're just damn comfy straight on. 🙂

                        Still i think a uk 8.5 is probably a lil bit too big when ur tts is us8.5. Let your sizing double check with viberg or best is when you have the chance to try different shoes/boots in person (especially which last is used, styles etc). Imho. Yeah and let your feet measure or try shoes on when you already walked a lot and they reached their largest status, say around at 4 in the afternoon 🙂 i always have around a thumb space free in the front for my toes as i do not want to kill my feet, my preference, others do it differently

                                        The dynamic over there seems pretty interesting - older generation doesn't want to change a thing but the younger generation trying to branch out.  Family drama perhaps?

                                          I haven't watched this yet, but here's the blurb. Apologies if it was previously posted.

                                          Across the country in Victoria, BC, a footwear company attempts to get a grip on their evolving product line. Once known strictly for their tough men's footwear, Viberg Boots has expanded to offer more fashionable products, leaving owners scrambling to keep up with demand. Will the owners reshape their business and rise to Arlene's challenge? Or will they be given the boot?

                                            That's how Viberg got the Goodyear welt systems, I believe.
