John Lofgren (Speedway)

A few hundred bucks is a decent amount of change!

Having the wrong size boot that you can't return is about the same, you wont command full retail on the secondary market if you can get rid of it at all.

That is true!

Since I helped derail this thread I thought I'd bring it back to Lofgrens with a pic of those beautiful natty cxl boots from VEB's blog.

[Bluegrass]

They selling these yet?  Are these pics just promo shots to wet your whistle?

[superfuzz]

@Bluegrass I think this is a special thing that got set up over on Denimbro. There might have more info over there. But they definitely are not for sale yet. There might be a preorder or something like that.

[Bluegrass]

you shouldn't tempt me like that 

[Chiba J.]

Not for sale yet. And not really a Denimbro special in any strict sense. Just a boot that a few guys really wanted John to make, and he was happy to do it.

Nothing concrete yet, but it looks like they'll be ready in February. Going off past experience, there will probably be a pre-order page up on the speedway site before too long…..

I am looking forward to my frogskin sneaks. For some reason the natty cxl isn't moving me like the black, cognac, and brown do

I'm also eagerly awaiting those Lofgren sneakers. They look superb and I want to retire the ratty Vans I've been wearing when it's too hot for boots. Due early next year, right?

[davito]

Per his IG release is March nice

[Mich]

The release date of the sneakers actually has been pulled forward to december 

[davito]

Superb

I think they look fine now but will look awesome with age.

Agreed super, frogskin has that herringbone which ages so well. December is indeed the drop baby!

I think Fuzz was talking about the Natural CXL, no? And, if so, he be right.

Oh of course; yeah that's why it's Nick Hollows' favorite leather.

[superfuzz]

Yeah that's what I meant.

I'd put the nat. cxl first on my list.  Love my nat. cxl White's.

[Chiba J.]

I really like natural cxl too. But I think first on my list would be Badalassi in Castagno. Have been extremely pleased with how my Badalassi boots have worn in, but would prefer a darker brown rather than the red-orange-ish hue of the Cognac.
