Either 9 or 9.5, hard to know for sure..

Hi everybody. I'm new to the site, this is my first post. 

I'm a boot junkie. How do Viberg's fit?

Here are my normal sizes:

Most dress shoes: 10
Red Wing Iron Rangers: 9.5
Chippewa General Service: 9.5
Frye Logan Cap Toe: 9.5
Wolverine 1000 Mile: 9.5
Truman: 10

PSA:

SF affiliate No Man Walks Alone (paging @gdl203 and/or @conceptual 4est ) is now a Viberg stocklist. inaugural makeup is a killer rough out suede service boot on 1035

These are beautiful boots but to my (very) untrained eye, the leather seems sort of similar to the Fat Waxed I'll get soon. The color is not exactly the same but the way the nap fades, wears and will age, is there a similarity or redundancy? Or am I way off.

How does stampede cxl roughout compare to natural cxl roughout? Similar weight? Color looks more brown maybe.

This would be great since my 2030 boondockers aren't a great fit and are tight in the toe box.

Stampede supposedly has a nubuck finish, but that would be on the inside, which is strange. I guess there would be less foot slip without the click CXL on the inside.

Thanks! If that's what they look like I'll probably return them, but we'll see.

Totally different. NMWA are suede compared to the waxed flesh. The waxed flesh are also significantly darker as seen here. These boots will age very differently from one another

Thanks for the explanation rydenfan.

And nice boots too!

Are those 110's? Or 2045's?

2045

Just got a pair of roughouts in 8 and 8.5. 8.5 is slightly loose and the 8s slightly tight. Do these boots stretch? Better to go with the 8s?

TIA

I picked them up. The leather on them is great.

These are on the 1035 last and my brannock size is a 9E. I've tried both boots on, and am primarily wondering if there will be stretching in the roughout CXL, similar to suede.....
TIA

I would assume some stretching since it is cxl. Is your foot ok on the footbed?

I picked these up from Bureau Belfast. I know most of you boys out here don't like the chunky Vibram look, but I love these on the 110 and they are the most comfortable Vibergs I think I own. Long live the 110 orthopedes. Now all I need is my Half Japanese and I'll be happy for about a week until I need another fix.
