Quick shot of the Dukes worn first time this morning.

[deanclean]

Worn for only a few hours and already some nice indigo stains/transfer. I’m really liking these. They look western but not too cowboy-ish. My wife thinks I secretly want to be a cowboy because of my western boots, shirts, cowboy hats, etc. It’s no secret, I WANT TO BE A COWBOY! but these boots are a nice in between. They have a western look but not full on cowboy. I wish the shaft was a little more narrow. I may take them to a cobbler and see what he can do. My first pair of Lofgrens and I think I made the right choice.

oh man! so nice! i've had a shaft narrowed down before. Sent them to a company in texas (don't think it exists anymore) and they essentially cut a pointed down triangle into it and added a engineer boot like buckle at the top.

New to me Donkey Punchers.

@Odin43 Nice! I think Donkey punchers will be my next boot from JL . Congrats.

[Odin43]

@stichdown-shell they are pretty awesome.

I am now officially a John Lofgren owner and scared of never again being able to buying anything else

M43 roughout, finally I found a boot where style, quality and fit are 100% what I wished for.

I love them, I’m 3 pairs deep now. CXL, Badlassi, and the Devils Causway. I think I’m set for a very long time. They have gotten easier to get on. Just needed to get the shaft stretched but overall fit is amazing!

[FlavourFade]

Love the look of the engineers. Maybe one day I will add a pair to my collection.

Anyone have experience of getting Lofgrens resoled? Eying up the Burgundy CXL Donkey Punchers as my next big purchase, but with it being a custom last, I wondered if your average cobler would be able to resole them, or if they'd have to be done in house?

[A Former User]

@T4920 you can resole a Lofgren boot for sure but takes some more work then a 360 welt. So the price must be very tempting imo. Is the sole also build on a other last then the standard punchers? I’ve seen some resoles on Lofgren by Brian the Bootmakers which does a great job but things can get pricey.
