Wait, I was looking for this thread.  Why isn't it in footwear?

I was just Donkey Punched. Who knew it would hurt this good?

[Bluegrass]

OMG, love these.  So nice!  Congrats!

[mclaincausey]

Those are my favorite in that style I've seen. Kind of regret not grabbing some.

[Sugar Mountain]

I could never pull off those boots, but they look damn good all the same. I bet they'll look brilliant with some heavy wear on them.

Beautiful!

[Chiba J.]

Thanks guys. Really happy with these. Looking forward to putting some miles on them.

MCL, I'm pretty sure John has more, if you're still interested…...

[superfuzz]

Wow, those are amazing. Not really my style, but they really look great!

Oh yes @Chiba J. Awesome pick up enjoy them. I know you have been waiting some time for them. Congrats

[Chiba J.]

Thanks Davito!

We'll have these at SENY, SELA, and SEPDX in a week or so..

The only sizes left in Japan are 8 and 12.

The original post said "I'm pretty sure John has more", to which i was responding about John's/Speedway's stock.

but your answer said "The only sizes left in JAPAN are 8 and 12"
(while I am being a smartass right now anyways, I thought I could continue being one )

Thanks Kiya, I will keep an eye out.

@Chiba J. or @kiya could one of you either post a picture of, or tell me about the sole on the Donkey Puncher? I'm hoping it's lugged but I can't tell from any of the photos I've seen online.

[Bluegrass]

vibram 700 half sole… they have a pic here...

[mclaincausey]

That's what I was afraid of. IMO a lug sole makes more sense with a logger boot. I like that sole on the engineer but wish he'd gone a different route here.

Being a curious fellow, i just googled donkey puncher, and what came up on page 1 was "donkey punch".  OMG.  Is that what he was thinking when he named these?!?! I thought it might be a cowboy or gold miner or lumberjack or something…

OK after reading down further: "A donkey puncher is the operator of a small steam donkey, a machine used in logging in the 19th and 20th centuries." - wikipedia
