I have 2020 and 2030 and it looks halfway in between both FML. I asked Viberg again.... another EU retailer did list their wintersmoke calf SBs as 2020 last.... the box says 2030 last though. WHAT DID I BUY????

The worst part is these fit way better than my 2030 or half size up 2020.... so if these really are 2020 I shouldn't have taken the half up I did.
If you have D-width or narrower feet, I wouldn't be surprised if your best 2020 fit is half down from your best 2030 fit.

I have splayed toes (I don't know if that's the right term) so I always get worried about toe boxes being too narrow as it's easy for me to get too much pressure on my pinky toe. That's a big part of why I took a half up over 2030 for 2020 honestly. If these are 2020, they would be my 2nd best fit after Alden Plaza which is a freaking glove on me.

Guys,

I love the look of pristine shell when I see others pic's on this site, but not so much on my own feet. I prefer aged shell, for instance, I haven't cleaned or even wiped these in a month or so since I started walking my dog in them. And I absolutely love the look......

Having too many boots is certainly a first world problem that is made more acute by WFH during the pandemic. As much as I love these 2's, until I put some miles on them they just don't fit my style. So today was day 1 of me breaking in my new dog walking boots.......

Really looking forward to seeing some creases these over the next month or so. 2030 is my favorite boot last and I love the soles on these. Wish I knew about them before converting the Scouts to dainite.

I wish that I had both of these... [weeps softly]

All my 2030 are 9.5, last year I bought some 2020 from mr porter sale in a 9 on a whim and they are easily my best fitting pair

I've got 9.5 brannock, 8.5 2030 fits pretty darn good and the 9 2020 isn't bad either, but I do rock some of my thickest socks with it to be fair. If this is 8.5 2020 that's what I'll go with in this last in the future, but to be fair I worry Viberg won't even know if they did a batch of these in 2020 last or not.
