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

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

            Think it, be it.

              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.

                  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…...

                          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 😉 )

                                    @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.

                                    Think it, be it.

                                        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.

                                        Think it, be it.

                                          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

                                            John told me that he had considered putting the recessed lug sole on these, the sole that Alden uses (can't remember what it's called but its the one where the lugs are barely visible when seen from the side). But he realized that any grip gains are low to minimal over the 700. Full lugs would be another good option. Better for some maybe, but truth is not too many guys will be a donkey punching in these.

                                            You could always resole, or go for the Lone Wolf loggers…...
