                    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!

                      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?

                        “𝑁𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟 𝑙𝑒𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑓𝑢𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑏 𝑦𝑜𝑢. 𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑚𝑒𝑒𝑡 𝑖𝑡, 𝑖𝑓 𝑦𝑜𝑢 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑜, 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑤𝑒𝑎𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑜𝑛 𝑤ℎ𝑖𝑐ℎ 𝑡𝑜𝑑𝑎𝑦 𝑎𝑟𝑚 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑎𝑔𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑠𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑡.”

                          @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.

                            @Heavy_blue the product description on East West say 'build on original John Lofgren lasts'

                            https://eastwestapparel.co.uk/shop/john-lofgren-donkey-puncher-boots-burgundy-cxl/

                            Unsure exactly what impact this has on resoling, as I'm new to this boot thing, but just weighing up the pros and cons before dropping £830 on a pair of boots... Being able to resole them is very important to me as I'd want them to last for decades.

                            “𝑁𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟 𝑙𝑒𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑓𝑢𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑏 𝑦𝑜𝑢. 𝑌𝑜𝑢 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑚𝑒𝑒𝑡 𝑖𝑡, 𝑖𝑓 𝑦𝑜𝑢 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑜, 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑤𝑒𝑎𝑝𝑜𝑛𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑜𝑛 𝑤ℎ𝑖𝑐ℎ 𝑡𝑜𝑑𝑎𝑦 𝑎𝑟𝑚 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑎𝑔𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑠𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑡.”

                              @T4920 oh sorry i misunderstood and thought you meant you saw some 2nd hand Lofgrens with a custom last. But yes you can resole them, if seen lot of variations on the web and especially the role club resoles on the Lofgrens are pretty epic for sure. To be honest i would never drop my high end boots by a ‘regular’ cobbler and would always invest on a good resole cause imo that’s how they’ll last for ages 😎

                                @Heavy_blue that makes sense, and obviously resoling wouldn't even be a consideration until years down the lines, but something to thing about nonetheless..

                                Also considering the Green CXL Chelsea Boots, a little more affordable but way less of a statement piece imo...

                                  @T4920 beware.. once you’ll go down this line a new addiction has been born but i must say that my punchers are among my favorites! The calf lining and the overall vibe, fit and comfort is amazing! Also check the role club underdogs which are so very cool! But i’m very pleased with my lofgren engineers and punchers.. but can’t wait for my wesco anniversaries to arrive and don’t even get me started on the clinch 🫣

                                    @T4920 I was never a boots guy and always wore sneakers on a daily basis... Then I discovered Red Wings, went down the rabbithole and bought a lot of expensive boots from RW, Alden, RM Williams and now Lofgren.

                                    To be honest on most days I grab my IH sneakers because it's just the easy way. If I could start from the beginning with what I know now I would have never spend so much money in total but buy one or two realy nice boots. Probably Lofgrens. If you are not a boot guy I would go with the chelsea for the start because they are great for everyday wear but still rugged. Or the M43 they are still wearable whole year round but still give the feeling of a great boot

                                        can’t go wrong with the donkeys 👏
                                        already pretty comfy out of the box . And the quality ist outstanding. The donkeys are the best made from Lofgren in my opinion. Have the burgundy 🤙
