Are you able to compare these to Bourbon? I was worried they would be too close in shade and I passed on the pre-order (which I now regret).

Sorry, I only have these and color 8. There are shades of olive in the Calvados though that probably set it apart.

Did anybody get an email from Thomas about about a 1 on 1 complimentary consultation? I just got one today. I don't think I need any more pairs of footwear but if they let me do something unique I might schedule a consultation.

First real day wearing the light grey horsebutt boots. They’re already very comfortable with the help of Ridgeway soles.

Tell me about those pants you're wearing. Please.

Tell me about those pants you're wearing. Please.

They are canvas pants that weigh about 12 ounces per square yard. They have two legs (a left and a right) and several pockets. You can put many objects in the pockets including (but not limited to) carrots, twigs, and pringles. I recommend sizing up to avoid crunchy pringles. Otherwise, they are true to size. They were purchased in the color quack, and look great in other colors as well. Oh, and I purchased them here: Railcar.

That was the size 9 pair right? Was originally @zachthespook then moved to another. I wanted it too but had to refrain from buying used. I always feel like something is missing in my excitement when buying used.

Regardless, those still look amazing and congrats on the pick up!

I find it exciting getting a good boot almost like new and saving hundreds of dollars. I've gotten 2 pairs of vibergs in the last month.Saved hundreds.

Thanks! I am very happy with the purchase, but I know what you mean. These came without the original box or accoutrements, and while I would rather have the money I saved vs those extras, I would be lying if I said I didn't miss that first time of opening a new box when you're hit with the presentation and the leather smell.

Anyway, yes, these are size 9 and from the research I did before making this purchase, I strongly suspect that you are correct and it is the pair that originally belonged to @zachthespook. I got them off of another guy on grailed, though.

I will say, they seem to fit a bit short for a 9. I wear 8.5 in the other Viberg lasts I own (2020, 2030, 2055, 310) and all fit me well. The feel of these on foot is most similar to the 8.5 2030s I have, at least lengthwise. They do feel a wider in the toe area.

Figured I might as well add a visual comparison in case anyone is ever searching the forum about sizing in the future:
Viberg x Miloh Bourbon Horsebutt 1035 size 9 on the right/outside
vs Viberg Brown Horsebutt size 8.5 on the left/inside.

I don't know if that holds true for all 1035 vs 2030, but it's a point of reference at least.
