Too bad Porter isn't doing half sizes. Though the fact they have like 5 different make ups totally explains why things seem to have been backed up at Viberg recently. Maybe we'll finally see part III of the sample sale!

I may end up doing that.  Was hoping to be able to order them from someone in the US to get free shipping and an easier return/exchange process if need be. I've never seen any Vibergs in person and hate making large purchases with international shipping.  Do any of the US stockists ever carry the stock Brown cxl captoe service boot? 

None of the US stockists have the basic makeups. They all pretty much have unique stuff made just for them.

Damn....what happens if you order a stock pair to be made and have to exchange/return? Does stuff from Canada get import duties coming into the US? I've only ordered from Europe and getting charged is hit or miss, but is awful when it does happen.

There are no import duties.

As bkotsko stated, no import duties but shipping back to Viberg is expensive.

I've only ordered a few things from Mr-Porter....do they send out unique promo codes to frequent customers or is it just a generic one they send out in emails/social media?

I don't think they're sending promo codes out in general.

Hard to tell for certain but they sure look like the 2030. Seems like the only boots with an unstructured toe are the Boondockers.

Thanks for the reply.

Any Canadians try to order? Viberg's made in Canada and they're charging me $115.20 in duties? This is not including tax ($98.18).

Ridiculous. I'd rather hop on a flight to Vancouver, head over to the factory and get an MTO just to spite the damn duties!
