It is a gem of a logger boot. I have so far resisted the urge to order one but man it's lovely.

[Giles]

I do.  And I have thought long and hard about these, but decided to be sensible for once…..

I'm not all that into burgundy, but for some reason the shade really seems to suit the boot IMO. Had the chance to see these back in December and I was even more impressed in person, and it was the up close and personal view that swayed me to the color. Anyone know if "Bordeaux" is a different shade of CXL than the usual burgundy?

Japanese horsehide lining, CXL, American brass hardware, oak tanned heel and sole, American vibram outsole and heel, English storm welting, Japanese construction. Like his engineer, a very global boot. You have to admire the dedication and his eye for design.

great boot Chiba.

would be all in if not for the curved/tappered heel (forgive me boot terminology is not my strong suit), i tried wearing a pair of white's with that kind of heel & i could just never get used to it.  i loved looking at them cause they were a work of art, but in the end i just sold them away.

i fear i would do the same if i bought these .  . .

[Chiba J.]

Yeah, McLain, John spends a helluva lot of time obsessing over the details. It shows.

Monday, you couldn't get used to the look or the feel? I have this same heel on my JL engineers, and they are my most comfortable boot.

[madmonday]

the feel, but it might have just been a mental thing . . . . which isn't hard to imagine if you take a look at me :O)

so many people swear by this kind of sole, it can't be a bad thing . . .  it just didn't work for me.  i also think it's kind of danty looking & reminds me of a woman's heel, but again it's my own madness that's swaying me on this.

those boots look the bizness & will serve their owners well

I just noticed the stitching on the back going down towards the heel counter, how it spreads out as it approaches the counter…. So damn sexy...

[Chiba J.]

I'm not letting you near my boots. lol.

[mclaincausey]

Dude THEY came on to ME!

[Seul]

Only one word away from total FREAKY DEAKY CREEPY stat…

[mclaincausey]

Haa you dirty pig!!

[Bluegrass]

I LOVE these new logger boots - if they ever make my size I'm going all in - they are so damn sexy - they look like they should be displayed in an art gallery or something.

[Chiba J.]

Send John a mail. He needs to know that there is some demand for…... 13?

[mclaincausey]

I think he needs 5 or so orders to justify a new last.

[Bluegrass]

yes, I've been in touch.  he's a great guy, but i understand he has to make a profit - just not enough demand right now.  maybe as the brand gets more exposure he'll consider it.  in the mean time i have plenty of boots to wear  and i will lurk on this thread and live vicariously through others…

[mclaincausey]

Lofgren boots and vest today. This vest is in my sale thread if anyone wants to make an offer. It's super nice but I shouldn't have sized up.

[grandmasterben]

These are real fucking nice

[mclaincausey]

So happy your got them and appreciate them, they fantastic.

[superfuzz]
