They feel great I actually went with a size 12 e left and a 12 1/2e right, my right foot is a bit longer than left. The fit seems pretty spot I with just a bit more heel slip on the right foot due to the width being slightly different because of the different lasts(the width is exactly perfect on left but there is noway my right foot would go in a 12)… But the heel slip is a finger width at most on both boots and nothing I wouldn't expect out of a pair of well fitting engineers... Hopefully this makes sense...Now time to get them broken in!

Yeah, I figured as much. Thanks David!
** switched it up to a beefier sock and man oh man these are magnifico -
badass boots mr.mantall!
Think I even managed to drop a mail before you today.mailed @ 8am for 74. Just randomly checked. Think they were still long gone. Doing it on a long weekend state-side was/is rather interesting.
well i was watching a soccer game as the sale went up and since i had zero access to the www while in the stadium, my mails went out like 2-3h later…oh well! -.-
oh wow nice. all are beautiful but I love the top one. do you have any specs?
here you go matey:
1. Short Shift, Brown Horsehide, Vibram 705 Half Sole, 2005 Last, No Box Toe
2. Oxford, Icy Mocha CXL, Vibram 705 Half Sole, 110 Last, Box Toe
3. Oxford, Icy Mocha CXL, Straight Toe Cap. Mark on Right Toe, Brown 2021 Sole, 110 Last"middle ones, bottom ones, top ones…that´s my way of "liking them"."
Not sure what you mean, but good luck anyway bro.well that actually was the order of how bad I want(ed) these boots!
middle ones are badass, bottom ones next in line and if I can't get any of the first two then I also would take the top pair (short shift boot)…got it?
(PS Finn, if you do happen to come across a pair that's too small, you know who they'd be perfect for, don't you mate
)gotcha buddy

Not sure it came across in my originally quoted above, but there was meant to be many smilies and light humored I can't believe I beat you. All in good jest. Considering it's usually 4am local time when they've gone up….:)

Seconded. They are amazing looking boots. First dibs when you get fed up with them (or your feet happen to grow unexpectedly)?

showed up late to the party but hopefully i can score one of these:
The difference in leather between middle and third is striking… Both are Icy Mocha CXL, but they really look like different leathers, which I've noticed in some other picks of Viberg CXLs. I know it all depends on the batch of leather they get from the tanner (Horween...?), but I'd be disappointed if I wanted that darker, chestnut middle leather (which I love) and got the lighter, almost grey third leather.

i´m sure that there´s a typo somewhere…those are two totally different leathers (in color!), so i actually can´t believe that Viberg would use the same name for them!
gonna check it out and post a reply soon...bottom ones are def. ICY Mocha CXL...middle pair has to be sth. else i´d say!

I agree with you raf, I have never seen a pair if ice mochas that dark mine are def closer to the last… Thus the name "Ice mocha"

I wouldn't be surprised; though at the same time I have seen IM CXL that were pretty close to that middle one… I have a pic of a pair like that, but not in a form I can post here I am afraid.
Anyway, if you find out for sure Rafa, do tell...
