        I hesitated to cop the Boondockers because of the leather sole too (ls can get really slippy on HK pavement, even when dry) but it works well and I love my boots.

          Yep, me too (though Melbourne pavements) but it all worked out nicely.

          Here's mine after a year of wear and a fresh bit of dubbin.

          Here they are upon arrival a year back:

                              Ok, I asked this before, but would be thankful for some experience.

                              I love the feel of the Viberg laces, super soft and "moist", not as cracking dry as other leather laces I encountered so far. But I am kind of scared to pull them real tight, as I ripped Red Wing laces on the second wear. What's your experience - can I pull with strength without worrying?

                                I pull super tight through the eyes, but try not to do it around the hooks.  They will go at some point though…...

                                  i wear my IHVB-04-b-o-t since december nearly every second day.
                                  the leather laces have never been any issue and i pull them quite tight.
                                  they perform and look much better than normal laces, imo (until they break).

                                      what's the issue with yours?

                                        I believe max has the same issue I do they are small. They are fine when wearing during the day but, too small for hiking. I am taking mine to a cobbler tomorrow to get stretched.

                                          Did you try my shoe tree suggestion? This is a very short last vertically for whatever reason. I shoved a Nordstrom cedar shoe tree in my left one for about a week and it sorted it out for me.

                                          Think it, be it.

                                            I have shoe trees in them, doesn't fix the issue. It's going to the cobbler today  to be stretched
