      @Aries:

      Gorgeous; they yours Finn?

      yap they're mine…still! have them up on the market as i type! 😶

      @Aries:

      Olive?! Christ I need to recalibrate my screen colour, they look more of a sandy colour on my Macbook than green.

      Or is that correct?

      well it sure isn't correct :-\ i'm always having problems with my screens and/or to know when my screen is showing the "right" color if some other guys screen is showing the same or a different one (as in your case)…
      but tbh. the true color on those is pretty hard to capture and checking it again, Urb is correct!

      this is more likely to be ttc:
      @urbanwoodsman:

      I feel like this might be a better color representation. Shot from the sample sale.

        What monitor / software are you using? Maybe we should PM about colour correction :). [It could be as simple as sRGB vs Adobe 1998]

                Finn, since you seem to own a vast number of boots, and be something of an expert on Viberg, have you ever had trouble with the gusset bunching up and pushing against the front of your ankle when walking?

                I think it's definitely exacerbated by the thick leather laces.

                  ha, don't make me blush mate ^^
                  vast numbers of boots? expert? you must be talking about someone else 😃

                  but back to your problem…nope I haven't had the problem yet, but i think that's just cuz I look after the tongue/gusset and how it's placed before lacing up the boots! I always make sure that the middle is plain flat and that all the excess leather of the tongue is spread to the left and to the right...

                  I hope I figured your problem the right way?! :-\

                    Yes I think that's it really, just making sure the tongue is completely flat and the sides are evenly spread.

                    I'll let you know how I go! Thanks to yours and urbanwoodsman's input, hopefully that solves it.

                    Otherwise I can wear them just with 5 eyelets threaded and the laces wrapped around, but obviously I'd like to be able to wear them however I please!

                          Hi guys, I really need the advice on sizing, what size I should get for the 2030 last?

                          My guess is 2030 last on the Viberg retail store (Freeman sport club, TateandYoko, Superdenim, 14oz etc.)
                          are made on E width and for 110, 2045 last are made on EE width . Am I right?

                          My foots are pretty wide (2E), I wear Viberg size 8 on 110 EE Last.
                          sorry for my bad English

                          *Sharing your size on each lasts will be much a good help for me and the others as well 😃
                          Cheer!

                            ^ atm. i'm a UK9 in all vibergs (lasts: 160, 2030, 2040, 310)!

                            if you have wide feet, i'm not really sure the 2030last was made for you since it's pretty narrow and flat in the middle of the foot/in the toe box! best bet would be to first try them on (if you're able to!)…

                            how does your other pairs in UK8 fit? do you have enough of room?

                              I wear standard size UK 8 in 2030 (engineer VMC anni), 2040 (50's service boot) and 110 (iron worker style 146) lasts. I believe all are D or E  in my shoes (no idea to be honest).

                              the 2030 stretched pretty much widewise and shaped nicely to my feet in my case, never had issues with it but guess I have the average not-wide feet though.

                              I you can get through a sizing-kit with them or try like Finn wrote above, would be probably the best to ensure what size you need in the 2030

                                Finn, 110 last size 8 is a comfy fit for me but I can go for 8.5 if I want to wear a thick sock. Do you know the width of all lasts you got?

                                2030 Last is more like a dress boot imo, it would be great to have it as well. Mostly I buying stuffs via Online Store so I assume I should go for size 9?

                                  Actually when I asking them to check my sizing.
                                  here what Jason replied,

                                  110 EE  you would be an 8
                                  2030 E  you would be an 8.5 with a built up last for width and instep
                                  2045 [E if case you have]  you would be an 8 with a build up for width and instep

                                    sry, don't know about the widths but from "wide" to "narrow" it is 310, 160, 2040, 2030…

                                    i'd go with a 8.5 or even a 9...with an 8.5 you should be good to go though i think!

                                          You r welcome KKT, why you want go 9 when viberg suggest 8.5E with the built up in 2030? I assume your feet have been measured? would double check again if you are unsure.

                                          I know sizing is difficult sometimes but bringing you in the right size will make you happier. I read from others they go half up from their usual viberg size in 2030 last, like Aries for example. But all about preferences. Feet and comfort are so different

                                          Assuming you took a sock into consideration you normally wear in your vibergs. Otherwise it may sound more like a 9 but i tend more to a 8.5 but again your feet are different than mine and others 🙂

                                          Take care

                                          Cheers,
