Red Wing Iron Ranger 8111 Amber Harness vs Viberg 1035

They feel incredible to walk in and are surprisingly comfortable. Sometimes they catch compliments, which is neat-o. My.

However, a size 10 in 2030 sometimes works as well depending on the pair. The fit on these Type I boot is pretty on point, snug but not too roomy, super comfortable right out of the box.

Cost: Yes, these are crazy expensive, in my opinion, but I think they will be well worth the price over the long run. I've got two pairs of work boots from years ago and they were both over a $100 which, at the time, was a nutty price to pay for shoes. But those boots have lasted me literally for 20+ years. I just had one pair re-soled and they are still going strong

* **Price:** $290 shipping to Canada and CONUS. * **Wears/Condition:** Very good condition. Averaged probably less than 1 wear per week over the years. Held up extremely well and have not been babied

Pros: comfort, style, quality materials, easy to repair and resole later on Cons: laces will break on you, long break-in period, initial cost (if you've only bought boots from chain stores like Walmart or Meijer in the past) Overall: Buy these boots in whatever color suits you, and once you've broken them in, you won't wear anything else.

Viberg 1035 (these boots): 8 (feeling excellent all around). As I said above, these boots fit me just so! They are snug around the heel, snug on my bridge and vamp without having too much pressure and the toe box adequately holds my pretty wide forefoot and is just tall enough to tap the top of my toes without being uncomfortable. Obviously the boots will soften up with wear but even with only an hour or so of wear around the house, they feel like they’re gonna be unbelievably comfortable.

I own british shoes, Grenson's ,that run a full size or size and a half big so based on that experience I bought a full size down and got a 9.5 to be safe. Thinking they would fit perfect without any insole help. Result

As I said I am a 10E Brannock, I have narrow heels. My best fitting shoes and boots are Viberg 9.5 1035 last and I fit Alden !0D trubalance.
