Ended up getting the Viberg sneakers and they are chunky but they feel really nice. The sole is super stiff (twss) but should soften up nicely

Nice. Glad you ended up liking them. It really seems to me the grey release was toned down from their initial release and i think it looks so much better. The stiffness was one of the main reasons I wanted them. Much better for me than sneakers that are too soft. Also the RGS sole is taking a bit of getting used to with the way it rolls while walking. It’s a bit weird at first.

Those sneakers look really good. How is sizing relative to brannock and your 2030 last size?

Also, for those who purchased the Garnet 110s from TBB -- how did you find the 110 sizing? I have a few 110 vibergs and have found the fit inconsistent. In one case, going down a half size from my 2030 last (which is half down from brannock) worked well. In another case, the boots are a little short.

Bison and Natural CXL

Purchased both pairs from Brooklyn Clothing - Bison last year and CXL just came in. Both are 2030 size 10. The color variation of the CXL is amazing and it should be interesting to see how they age. Weight wise, the Bison with commando soles is clearly heavier and the leather is much thicker. Both pairs are amazing. Good job Viberg!

I took my viberg size which is 10 in my boots and these sneakers. I am about a US10.5-11, Nikes all in a US11, dress shoes 10.5.

Also am finalizing the details on a boot that will look somewhat like the following aka a boondocker in smoke kudu roughout.

That bourbon is perfect.
