What do you think about that?
This is what customers from around the world say:
I bought these boots in size 39, as I have a 25.5cm foot. The size charts on Bergfreunde suggests a 38 for a 25.7cm foot, and a 39 for 26.4cm, so I thought sizing up by one size would be good enough. I was wrong! These boots fit very small, and I would need a size 40 (now sold out) in order for my toes to have enough space. As it is, the boots just barely fit, but my toes are pushed together.
Looking on the Viking web site, their size charts are COMPLETELY different, and I suspect, correct. Viking footwear say that the size 40 boot fit 25.7cm.
The boots are well made, heavy, warm and with the high-wear inner heel area reinforced. If they weren't a little too tight, they'd be perfect.
They're supportive and snug enough to walk long distances in them, and I hike with my dogs in winter with these on. I also farm in them, so I'm in them every day, all day.
The left boot ripped at a stretch point after a year, but since it's the first winter I've gone without chillblains, I'll overlook this. It may have been a factory fault, as the right boot is perfect. Next winter I'll go up one size.
