so guys…
if i`m a US9 in all Red Wings...would i be save if i take a 8.5 in Viberg boots?

I had a pair of RW GTs in 7.5 and there was fair bit of room in the toe box, but otherwise they fit me fine. My size 7.5 hikers fit about the same. My other two pair of Vibergs are size 7 and I think are spot on. I think you'd be fine in an 8.5.

Not sure about Red Wing sizing, but I am a 9D in the Alden Barrie last and my 9D Vibergs are fitting well with thicker socks. I guess 8.5's could work, too, but not with a thicker sock.

I will post photos of my new Viberg's (horsehide/VMC edition) soon.

[Giles]

She ordered 2 pairs (because she only has one atm) of Clarks Chukkas today…..

how much was this pair going for?

[Giles]

I don't know

[Finn666]

@Just_KC:

how much was this pair going for?

the other VMC edition models from Viberg are both 890SFr. so I'd guess that this one costs the same.

[Just_KC]

about 1012 USD then. thanks. 

[Finn666]

this should do the trick, yeah…

@Just_KC:

about 1012 USD then. thanks. 

Considering that the regular version goes for around 560USD these days it means almost 500USD for upgrade on HH, custom duties, shipping and store mark-up. The Japanese versions out there go for a similar price tag.
A shame that you can not get HH as a regular custom option directly through Viberg, I guess Brett does not want to hassle with it on a regular basis…

[Giles]

He has had some massive problems with quality of the the Horse Hide.  It has left a bitter taste in his and his fathers mouth…..

[madmonday]

i am patiently waiting for the ones in the back to hit the market.  one or two things i would change about them, but nothing drastic to stop me from purchasing.

i wear my bobcats every chance i get.  they are heavy as hell but i love them.  all that would make them better is a new sole, but i will give them proper usage & when the time is right go about a proper resole.
