Personally I think the 110 is pretty much my favourite last from any shoe maker. Maybe I've got slightly wider than average feet but I don't feel like I'm swimming around in it by any means. And the actual look of it for my sensibilities is perfect. I know there are a few of us who have mad love for the 110, but wish there more and then we might acually see some builds on it more often...one for the OG's I fear

Interesting that Viberg shows an over the top view of the 110's but never the 1035. The 110 looks like a symmetrical 1035. Would that be accurate? I like them both.

Can anyone with those BCC olive guidi's post pictures of how they've worn in so far?

The 1035 Is for all intents and purposes the 2030 with a more rounded profile on the toe. So in terms of over the top views, just look at the 2030 but look at it as being less 'pointy'. The 2030/1035 is clearly a very well formed last, but is too aggressive in form compared to the 110, which imho is subtle and perfectly shaped to what a foot actually needs (and is shaped like). But hey, I'm just a guy on his in private crusade for the 110 and more importantly more 145 oxfords done the old school way

I figure the CXL's will get me through the final hours of my 20s...

Yes they are and they are amazing. Don't buy into the CXL hate. These are really excellent boots!

Second

I'm pretty blown away by mine. Can't wait to see them a year or two in.

By the way, these have been worn for 6 months. One polish (recently) with Venetian cream. The depth of color is revealing itself.

I'm right there with you on that crusade!

When they introduced the service boot a few years back (before the 2030 boots became more common), Viberg's Svc Boot more resembled a rounder, beefier work boot. What lasts were in use then? I know this seems pretty vague, I suppose I'm looking for info on lasts like 110 and 310. Do I have that right?

Edit: A bit of google imaging got me what I was after. 310 is the upturned toe and both 310 and 110 are the rounder, less sleek workboot lasts. Sound about right?
