Do you know if they will even do things like the nailed down sole and challenger style top with this order? Will it make a significant change in the price and make the order as a whole too complicated?

^Thanks!

So basically size the same as whites, but change D to E. INteresting that the E is their D...

Are the Vibergs slightly looser?

Not really, although it may be different for other lasts/toe shapes.

Depending on the price of course....

leather: black HH

sole: vibram 705 (brown if available)

midsole: single natural

style of boot: 9" engineer w/ standard toe box

other: pull strap, no celastic toe box, brass roller buckles, logo on front

Okay my go....

Wow, nice boots.

How'd you size on them? (Specifically comparing the white's and viberg.)

If you were referring to my post, I went with an 8.5E (which is their D) for the Vibergs and a 9C in the White's. I think I could have done an 8.5D in the White's, but they still fit fine. I wear an 8.5 in clarks desert boots and most other shoes.

Holy crap, those Vibergs are amazing. What's the info on them?

Thanks, they're short shifts with standard black leather and 705 sole. I've had them for a little less than 10 months.

Already posted in the evo thread, but this one seems more appropriate.

SDA wallet. A couple years old

Sam 710BK probably around 2 1/2 years, but not much summer wear

660s around 1 1/2 years

Here are some of my favorites. The White's and Quoddy are a few months old.

^ Very Nice ! Did those soles come with the boots or did you have them replaced?

Thanks, yeah Viberg did the double midsole and 705 half sole. I did order them with a natural edge, but they messed up and did black. They said I could send them back to be fixed or I could bring them to a cobbler and they would reimburse me, so I can't really be mad about it. It only cost $8 so I didn't bother and I think I like the brown better on these anyway.

had the cobbler do brown on the edges instead of the original black a couple months ago.

Shitty quality pics, but at least you get the idea of the fit. These are lot 1202XX w/ crotch rivet. I'm really happy with the fit since I wanted something slim, but still comfortable. The No. 12 denim is dark, hairy, and soft compared to other denim I've had.

I've had them for about a month and they're the 7 oz. standard engineer leather.

Viberg short shift.

8105 semi-custom.

Obviously I chose to ignore historical accuracy with these details, but I'm very happy with how they turned out.

These are post wash

So has anybody had any experience with the brown side yarn denim? I'm assuming it will just fade more subtly and take on a brownish tint over time?

SDA wallet close to a year of moderate use

Tanner Lanyard about 8 months

A little over a year of fairly consistent wear...not much in the summer though

Evisu #2000 No.2 or Oni Blue?

sorry.
