So If I can wear a size 8 in OSB Trench, will an 8 on Viberg 2030 be too large? The OSB on my right foot seems perfect, but my left foot is a little snug. I am getting some heel pressure on my left but after 11 days of wear it's getting better.

I sized 8.5D on brannock.

I sized 8.5 on brannock, but I just ordered a 7.5 in the OSB Trench. I hope I'm not screwed, I just found them at an awesome price and had to take the chance!

My experience with the trench boot is that TTS is at least 1/2 size large. I would order 1/2 size down if I were to do it again. The report that OSB stated that they design them to fit a wide variety of feet also suggests that they make them big (I think Alden says the same thing about the Barrie last, and it's huge). It does make manufacturing sense, as you should see significantly fewer return requests/disgruntled customers if you make the things 1/2 size big and then recommend TTS. Heck, they could even cash in on their wager by selling uber-thick "boot socks" for the 50% of guys who will be swimming in the things.

I think they will be too small for you. Did you get them off eBay?

I'm a 6.5E (heel to toe) and 7E (heel to ball) on the brannock. I wear 6.5 (thinner socks) for the trench oxford and 7 for trench boots.

Edit: A picture showing the cap-toe trench boots with leather soles, cap-toe trench oxfords with dainte soles, & trail oxfords w/ vibram 2060 soles (all are natural cxl)

@wonsmithr8 -- where did you get the trench oxfords with a danite sole?

It's the custom pair that was on OSB's IG. Ordered these back in late October thru their email

Damn. They look sweet. Would really like a pair of the oxfords on danite.

You can do that - just email them about ordering custom.

@wonsmithr8 Those trench oxfords look fantastic, don't think I'd seen any pictures of them without the vibram sole. Any chance you could post some more pictures?

I've noticed the prices have gone up since a few days ago. I was about to order the oxford trail which was $294 the other day, now it's $326

It was a holiday sale that's over now.
