I really like those and have been eyeing them on the BCC site. They are gorgeous but would just duplicate a few similar pairs so I'm hesitating. The navy ones are very tempting as well. The shipping charge is kind of ridiculous, though.

Yea but it is in CAD, so really $40 USD to ship such a heavy box isn't too crazy.

The guidi Olive is unreal- tons of depth and tone that the website pic doesn't reveal. Wish I could make them work for me..

Where is Viberg on the BCC site? Haven't been able to find any - no link and nothing comes up for Viberg in the brand listing or search function.

Has anyone here every soaked their Vibergs to get them to stretch? I've seen some guys over iron heart forum do this with viberg engineer boots. I don't want to sell my guidi calf boots but even with viberg having stretched them they are a bit tight in my toes.

Would I be crazy to put em on, stick my feet in warm water for 20 minutes, and then wear until dry?

Sell them to fund a larger size.

You can try using a shoetree and put socks on them to stretch them out slowly.

I thought about this but I think it will be easier at this point to sell them and find a different last. They aren't really too small they just aren't right for my foot shape.
