I personally love my poundmakers, highly recommend

I prefer them to the silhouette of the brigs, less sloped. Also, the leather is much more comfortable than the Vibergs I had before which I couldn't be bothered to break in, it felt too much effort. Same even with Yuketen Maine Guides.

I sold my Yuketens for the exact same reason. After months they still felt constricting. I think my preferred rotation would be T.W.O., Poundmakers, and Brigs (Future Purchase). I love my Virgils but prefer the look of a boot w/ a heel.

I've got 2 virgils, a grizzly and 7 hole. First two are dead stock and one is nearly 3 years old. 😢 I end up babying stuff which is annoying so luckily the PM, 7 Holes and Grizzlies are used so easier to use!

What size it the crosby in? I've been looking for a green one for a while (have the black one and love it)

Got a 5. It was being sold on Depop new for £200. The seller is a buyer for Seven Store.

I have the black too and always wanted the green so chuffed.

While we’re kinda on the subject what do y’all think are the most comfortable vis shoes? I know we’ve all got different foot shapes but maybe there’s a consensus?

I only own the thick sole skagways and they’re fine but it also feels like im walking on brick sometimes because the sole is thick and it doesn’t flex.

Beuys or something similar sounds like it’d be really comfortable due to the crepe sole.

I think the lambskin virgils w/ vibram sole are hard to beat if you stay on your feet all day.

Yeah my picaro Virgil’s or indeed kngr Virgil’s are great.

 

[ibn_pengel]

Yeh Kngr virgils for me. Done 20,000+ steps in them many times with zero discomfort.

Least comfortable has to be the Roland joggers ironically. Had them in both US 12 and 11 and neither were particularly comfortable.

I’m not great at knowing the different versions but in particular this version with the chunky vibram sole

 

[bows1]

Those are the exact boots I want

ah damn these size 12 also. This an old version (I think 2012 or maybe 2011). Size 12 a pain to find but you should see pairs crop on Grailed of different year versions for a decent price.
