Viberg

With "mustard" laces?

[madmonday]

red goes with Rocket & you always get points from me for always doing you.

What are some of the other sizes you wear in footwear  (i know you do wesco as well)? Are those Vibergs comfortable for you or a bit close?

[Seul]

I like 'm as well… Black christy looks great on those!..

@monday

NB US 8.5 / Nike US 8.5 / RW US 8 / Wesco US 8…..

first impression was that a UK 7.5 might be a option, but I made a 3 mile walk out of the box with them, wearing some mid-weight Anonymous Ism socks and no weird pain, rubbing or whatever happened, so they fit as they should, imo.

mclaincausey, maybe that works, will go and search for some waxed mustard laces now...

and for the sole, I think a mini ripple would look cool...

New horsehide short shafts (also 666s):

[superfuzz]

Nice! Are those the ones that were on Viberg.com? I was really temped by those. That HH is going to age beautifully!

[Spring Son of Light]

Yes sir! I held out as long as I could. Then I sold stuff

[superfuzz]

How do they feel?

[Bluegrass]

I snagged a pair of the short shaft horsies too - nice score.  They are awesome - only issue I had was the back of the shafts hit me in an odd spot and rubbed some blisters - but that can be remedied with tall socks and time/callouses.

And Rocket, I like the red boots - really - including the soles.  You can pull it off.

[Spring Son of Light]

They do indeed feel awesome. I did sorta have to squeeze my 666s over them, but it works. They are making me feel the need for a 40s/50s style cut.

NIce looking short shift boots, photos makes me want one!

[seanocono]

Those short shaft HHs are ridiculously nice, SSoL. Congrats, man (and Bluegrass).

Oh and the 55-UHR would be perfect for those.

[theorocks]

nice boots spring of light! how did you size those? there is a size 10 on the site ….I take a us 10 usually but have been informed I'm probably  a 9 or 9.5 in viberg again man killer

[Bluegrass]

i am normally a size 13 US and I got a 12 UK in the horsey engineers and the fit is spot on. I am a 12.5 in White's if that helps you.

[theorocks]

also I'm I correct in assuming the new Iron heart /viberg colab will be the same shape boot profile etc except not horsehide ? also the IH/Viberg is 9inch  I think I'm going to try and score the IH/viberg colab

[theorocks]

thanks that's what I figured ….I'II be a 9

Yes 9" with same (2005) last. Perhaps some other subtle differences too, I think.
