      Thanks @neph93!  Classics indeed.  I forgot that B and S carried these also.  Great boots.

      @Crit_Obs , thanks for the kind words.  I think they look killer as well.  I was hoping I wasn't going to hear any feedback like that regarding the fit but I appreciate your honest reply.  I can easily wear them but maybe they aren't the exact comfort and fit they should be?  I haven't actually worn them outside but I have worn them around the house quite a bit so I'm guessing at this point I might not be able to return them.

      @Appfaff thanks man!  I love them, I will be buying more in the future.

        Well technically I wore them outside for the photos but the soles have not touched the ground outside.

              Well @Crit_Obs was right, the 10's are too small. I tried a pair of 10.5's and they fit much better.  My 10's will be going up for sale.

                Glad to hear it all worked out, you made the right choice 100% no question about it. 😎 Life is too short for poorly fitting footwear (and plenty of other unpleasantries).

                  Saw these on Instagram while in Gosport a few weeks ago… amazingly beautiful!!!

                  Moto Style appears to be the brand name.... not sure, as they have so many variations of the words displayed around, lol!

                      They are rather a nice shape and style. The green pair are incredible.

                        I'm fawning over the blue ones…

                        Giles' jaw dropped a little when I showed him the green ones.

                        Gorgeous silhouette, and the Italian horse butt they used appears too have amazing grain.

                          I do love a good pair of green boots.  Those are fantastic.

                              Can anyone comment on whether  ibergs or Lofgren have a lower heel?

                                If I were to guess based on owning JL and seeing pictures of Viberg, I'd say the JL Cuban heel probably is taller. It doesn't feel super tall though to me when worn. Very comfortable boots if you can get your foot through the shaft in your size. @Bfd70

                                Think it, be it.

                                    Thanks fellas. Tough to figure when you can’t try on in person. Since they seem to be a push in height, @chap can you comment on which has more room in the toe box?

                                      I would say the JL. The Viberg has an unstructured toe box.

                                        depends on the last… Viberg‘s 2005 provides more room than the 2030...
                                        The 2030 ist narrow in the forefoot area, the 2005 is wider. If you have rather wide feet, go for a 2005 engineer from Viberg or the Lofgren. Viberg engineers are available in both lasts...
                                        I‘d suppose there‘s not much difference between Lofgren and Viberg‘s 2005...

                                        What you should also consider with engineers is heel shape. Viberg provides one of the best heel „pockets“ thus reducing possible heel slippage to a minimum.

                                        Would love to have a Viberg heel in my engineers...

                                          The lack of adjustability via laces makes this a bit of a pita.

                                            What do you guys think would work best for a torn/stretched strap hole? The leather is cxl on my Lofgrens…a rather sad thin cxl strap I'm afraid. Using another hole isn't an option. The tear appears stabilized for the most part. Super glue, shoe goo, etc.? This has proven a little tricky for an adhesive as is does need to be flexible unlike a resin/epoxy I'd like to use. Thanks for reading!
