does anyone size down 1.5 from brannock in the 110 last? I go 1 down for 2020/2050/2030 but have no experience with 110

Yes, for the 110, I go a half size down from the 2030, and they feel more roomy and comfortable. It's a high volume last. I have never tried the 145 last, but if it really is like the 110, then that's the one for all day comfort:

I wonder if I can cut my boot down and make myself a 145...... Maybe possible.

Won’t work, your laces will be too long.

Overwhelmed but I have vibergs on my feet 😎

I reached out to Viberg about the sizing for the 110 last on this new 145 Oxford. They say they've been recommending 1.5 down from Brannock for the 110 last (which is strange because the product page says 1 down). Based on that recommendation I switched my order of the dark rubber Dublin from 7.5 to 7. I usually get 7.5 in 2030 and 1035 so hope this works! There's one more 7.5 available now if someone missed it before.

You shouldn’t size down because a last is wider. The 110 last is shorter than 2030, if anything you should size up .5. In the end not all lasts work for everyone, and 110 doesn’t work for people with low volume feet.

I purchased the withered fig 145 Franklin ii in 7.5 (1035 last) but had to return it because it felt huge in length and width even though other 1035s fit me in 7.5. That experience contributed to my concern that the 7.5 in the 110 would feel similarly big and it might be worth a try to see what the 7 feels like. I definitely might be wrong based on what you're saying but worth a try I guess.

I’ve read horror stories on the internet about people buying vibergs that weren’t even close to fitting from DR.

It's not short, the 2030 is considered an elongated last, You should be excess space in the toe. In the 110, less so, though never should your toes touch the end even as you walk, unless you hate having toenails.

That said, yes, the 110 is much better for higher volume feet, or those who just like a higher volume shoe. Personally , of all my Vibergs. my double midsole custom pair in the 110 last gets by far the most wear. I also like a chunky streetwear look, but even in comfort alone, it stands, for me, head and shoulders above.

…but not because they were too big! 🤣🤣

Do you go down 1/2 or 1 from Brannock on the 2030?

I don't ever use the Brannock, so I wouldn't know, but I wear a size 9.5 in the 2030, though I could easily go with a size 10, and my size in say, Trickers 2297 (is that the standard last?) is a UK 9.5, but also sometimes a 10.

I never said it was a short last, I said it was shorter than the 2030 last, which most people who own Viberg boots use as their baseline.
