Me likey, wish I still had my pair

Don't fit the last? That's my problem with 2030, and the other lasts are not appealing to me.

I do better with a 9.5 on most 2030. Had these in a 9. I still have a couple 9's that work but there is lasting inconsistencies with Viberg

These boots embody everything I love about this hobby. The people.

These vintage Canadian made Gorilla boots, have quite the history. Likely manufactured in Quebec in the 80s/90s, they ended up a thrift store. In unworn condition. A fellow enthusiast found them, and gifted them to me, knowing the sizing likely worked for me. And they fit just the way I prefer for boots.

The welts were beat up and the soles were a cork material that provided little use for someone like me.

So I sent them on to Pablo Hadarits who rebuilt with an eva wedge, Vibram kletterleft soles, and new 360 welt. I'll eventually get some speed hooks too.

These are my go to travel boots. Super comfortable but also have traction. These have traveled to Asia, hiked the trails in the Bruce Peninsula, and many more adventures in the future.

This is what I am also doing. To make sure each and every pair of boot and shoes gets worn I am going by brand. I find that is thebeasiest way to remember and cycle through.

Just finished with the Northampton / UK brands - Cheaney, C&J, Trickers - the last two weeks and now moving on to the others.

Yesterday it was Ian Harold Chelsea Boots - The Gardener - with its interesting flaps covering the elastic.

That's an unusual idea indeed. I actually like the aesthetic of the elastic on chelsea's - adds to the style in my view.
