Likely a 10. Width may be an issue.

Just chiming in to say my NYC MTO order came in on Friday. Natural camel slippers (so probably didn't take as long as some boots). Essentially the Division road model, so they have better pics than I can provide. Love the color on these. Was worried about how orange they looked in some pics -- it's so great.

Side question: If I'm a size 10 in a 2030 last, and size 9 in slippers, what might be the best size for me in a 2050 (looking to get a chelsea boot). Also, I have pretty wide feet, will that be a problem with that last?

I wear my brannock size in 2050 and don’t have wide feet

2050 is super tricky. On the side zips I just landed, I went 1/2 below Brannock. Width is an issue and I can make it work with regular non-boot socks but if I went up half, I am suspected length will be too long.

2050 is best tried if you can be sure of the return policy or you try in person.

Thank you -- my feet aren't super wide. But being a noob, I've never been officially measured what width they are, so I say that anecdotally. I can fit into most stock sizes (sneakers, shoes, boots), but I didn't know how narrow of a last the 2050 is in general. Was curious for people who have 2030 or slippers how the width compares to 2050.

Certainly narrower than 2030 by a bit.

I went down 1 from brannock on 2050 (DR vintage mocha side zips) and was worried the were too tight but DR said they would feel looser with a little wear and that worked out and they fit very well now. My feet are not that wide though.

Thanks for the feedback. I think I'll go measure width of my foot and contact Viberg about if they'll work.

Anyone see this pair of natural shell stitchdown derby boots on the 110 last made for Phil Kalas of Ashland leather? They look amazing.

Viberg Natural Shell Cordovan Derby Boots

I've been working with the best leather in the world every day since June 2006. Owning a pair of shell footwear is something that I have always wanted. I've tried, unsuccessfully, several times to get myself fitted into some shell cordovan footwear. Nick Horween and Brett Viberg were kind...

Those look outstanding. I just picked up a pair of the similar mushroom oxfords for Withered Fig on a corded sole. Love how they take on a green hue in the sun!

Agreed. I love this so much that I just had to get the Oxfords. I am not much of an Oxford fan to begin with but this leather is just extraordinary.

Did you get them on eBay? If so, they probably came from me

Fresh drops : Tobacco Chamois RO on 1035. The gents at Rivet & Hide were fantastic to deal with.

New from Standard & Strange

Service Boot - Charcoal Reverse Chamois - 2045

The stitchdown Service Boot was the very first boot made by Viberg, and remains their top-seller to this day. Stitchdown construction makes for a bombproof boot that can handle as many resoles as you want to throw at it. Even if you somehow wear through the outsole, it'll still hold together...

How many perf captoe boots can one have? I have #8 cordovan & tan horsehide. I want brown horsebutt from S&S but don’t think I can justify.

New withered fig Chelsea is talking to me too.
