^Nah, Peter's about 3 hours ahead of me. They'd been up for hours before I got a look. They're posted around 3am my time, and I logged on 5.5 hours later.

I have a hunch (based on literally nothing at all) we'll see a round 4.

[Peter]

at least this waiting in line business is making my work day a lot more exciting than usual haha.

i also think there will be another round, only based on the fact that we're still in may at the start of next week ^_^

…..and just for comedy, I've got 2 kids, an Italian wife, 2 jobs, were selling and buying a house and have a demanding greater family.... and the moment the sale list and pics pop up on SF and choosing boot configs in general make not smoking harder than any of the above!! Just good to know we're not alone in apparel madness

[Peter]

haha, its nerve wracking!

@EastWest - Just saw you copped the 66 you must have supersonic fingers. I was somwhere in line for those aswell. If they don't fit don't hesitate to pm me. I'd be happy to buy them from you.

[Snowy]

^Maybe he sent the order before they were listed  ::). Quite tempted to write a script to send out e-mails before they're live for the next round.

An hour before they're up use a few accounts and request 71,72,73,74.

Easy enough to do, not in fair spirit tho

Hi Warioss, had a few draft mails prepared and as soon as the pics popped up they were sent. Just luck. Getting for quality comparisons and size referencing so will give you a shout if the love or sizing isn't there.

i really wanted an invoice at 13:37 haha, but still nothing..

@Snowy:

Amazing how fast these are going. Wonder how Viberg are judging the market segment/demand for "Fashion boots". I know Brett was trying to illustrate there was a demand for quality, wonder if this has helped….

i think his dad long ago realized that the fashion market was taking over his business
hell theyve even stopped doing horse hide for custom orders because 2 shops have standing orders to use all they get and then viberg them selves are using the rest (ps im gutted about this fact)
also the growth of the team that we can see with morgan and guy. pretty obvious the dad has come around

[Snowy]

^ Nothing but agreement to that. thanks for spelling it out.

[natehate]

i have to take some pics and email jason today, see if i can fit into a 12 in the 310 last. if i cant im gonna be heart broken!

[Finn666]

@natehate:

if i cant im gonna be heart broken!

why´s that?
btw. what´s your normal viberg size?

[natehate]

12.5 ee in the work toe fits nice
13ee in the 310's a bit long
and i'll be heart broken because i cant custom order them and i know that vmc is getting the boots i want in and doesnt order half sizes

[Finn666]

that´s a bit fucked…crossing fingers lad!
though i have to say one full size down from your other 310 last boot doesn´t sound that promising imo! :-\

[Peter]

54 still havent sold and i havent heard anything about them. theyre mocking me!

[Concret]

Good luck with  round 4(?) guys, in the meantime here are some fit pics of my new hh engineers. Today i had them on for the first time, the whole day. My feet were killing me at the end of the day, but nothing could erase the grin off my face.

[Finn666]

^ such an awesome boot right there P.! congrats again…

could have these resoled with a dainite sole for an additional USD90...thoughts?

[Chris]

What's on it now?  Looks pretty hefty.  I wouldn't spend the extra money to replace a new sole unless it was something entirely impractical.

Service Boot, Mocha Roughout Vamp/Counter/Brogue Toe Cap, Bullhide Quarter/ Top Band, Red Lining, Vibram 700 Sole, Brown Midsole, 3 Speed Hooks, 310 Last

and i think i´m with you on this…maybe i should just wait for round 4 (if there´s even going to be one!) :-\

Nice concret, loving the vintage low toe box and of course all of the engineer. As soon as the hide shapes the whole boot will become supercomfy. They need a bit some time but it is worth every minute your toes suffer a bit :). I worked with an insole on mine VMC Annis until they had broken in to take pressure away from my toes, especially when walking downhill
