John Lofgren (Speedway)

Though I'm confused by his calling it a "heavy full-grain suede" (perhaps he means roughout), the latest JL engineers look good:

Hey guys, figured this was worthy of a bump.
New John Lofgren Dessau sneakers! Going to be a lovely replacement for my old Converse 70's.
Need to get a pair of the white ones next.

looking sweet nice hi-tops @Broark you took the same size as in your champion sneakers?

[Broark]

Thanks @davito, and yes same size as my Champions.

[davito]

Cool man thanks and enjoy them @Broark

@Broark  I need to ask the obligatory sizing question: how did you size compared to your Converse 70's?

[Broark]

@FurattoHeddo 70's I wear an 11.5, I took an 11 in these.
Haven't gotten to wear the Dessau much yet but they feel similar size-wise, maybe a little more room in the toe?
Which would be a good thing, since the 70's have always felt a teeny bit narrow.

These get better every time I wear them (which is quite often). I really need to pick up a white pair.

tried on the camo champion sneakers but just didn't look right on me. maybe it looks better with khakis than denim. The blue is still my favorite

[veloaudio]

I think the camos look good with both khakis and denim.

Hey guys, considering a pair of engineer boots. Whats the verdict, are they E- width though on Speedway it says D?

Any comparison to White's or Lone Wolf? I know the Lone Wolf are a true E.

Thanks!

[goodrain]

did anyone pick up the new Self Edge x John Lofgren hightop sneakers? Thoughts?

[FurattoHeddo]

@Broark did. See http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=5145.msg430161#msg430161

[Broark]

Yes I grabbed a pair, I love them! I'm planning on getting the white ones soon too.

[goodrain]

@Broark how is the fit and comfort level compared to the Champion Sneakers?

[Broark]

@goodrain They fit the same as the Champions, equally as comfortable too.

How do you guys size on his engineers? Im 11 in viberg 2030(just fits) and 2045(lil big). Wear an 11.5 in cons CTAS. Would an 11 in JL engineers fit?

[davito]

Champion sneakers, always great to wear

Loving the Dessau hightops too
