  Generous fit but ball lines up where it is supposed to. Need to pull laces tight due to width but facings don’t touch and no heel slip.

  Socks: Midweight merino wool Misc. Notes: Higher volume right foot Not broken in yet These are a little difficult to account for size! The usual hallmarks don't apply due to the curved shape which is designed specifically to flow with one's steps: there's no heel slip and there's no real flex point to keep an eye out for. Based on where the widest part of my foot lands in the boot, though, I could've gotten away with ordering a half size down instead of a full size down as recommended by Viberg's website. However the full size down is still quite comfortable. At an E width (the only width they offered in this last), it's nice and roomy in the ball and on the instep while being perfect width in my heels, and there's plenty of space in the toe box. In fact, it's entirely possible that a half-down would've been too wide so maybe I got the better end of the deal after all. I quite like the shape of the boot and how it feels on-foot and in-stride. I've seen some people saying that it takes some getting used to but it felt pretty great to me the first time I walked around in them. I would like to add, though, that the pictures on the website appear to exaggerate the toe spring, at least to my eye. It doesn't look that curved in person. Hopefully my pictures illustrate that a little better. The leather is really supple, with a beautifully dark color and incredible pull-up. I find that olive-colored leathers can often appear a little sickly in direct sunlight, but in any light this is quite a rich, dark green with enough earth tones to keep it versatile. It does scuff and scrape pretty easily although I'm sure, due to how waxy it is, it buffs out just as easily. The stitching is incredibly fine -- I'm quite impressed with the stitch density. However, the rows of stitching on the welt are uneven and even crooked in places. On my right boot, there's a few parts where the two rows nearly (or do in fact) converge. This sort of thing seems to be pretty common across brands and as far as I can tell it doesn't affect structural integrity, so I only try to note it for boots that cost a lot of money or have a reputation for high quality. Especially at Viberg's price point and reputation, I would hope for more attention to that kind of detail. I do understand that a lot of other factors go into Viberg's pricing (hence "hope" as opposed to "expect"), and though I'm being nitpicky it was certainly worth it for me, so far anyway.

  The 310 last is my favorite Viberg last (I own 2030 & 1035 as well). There is plenty of toe volume. The sprung toe makes walking very easy. There was zero break-in, no hot spots... the boot was good to go out of the box.

  Stunning boot. Heavily oiled leather. The fit is perfect and the boots have a ton of character.

  Very comfortable. Might be a little tight in a different upper leather. No break in due to very soft uppers. Comfortable with thin or medium thick socks.

  Viberg 9 E: Nice in the toe box, seems easy to break in, hopefully won't stretch too much
