John Lofgren (Speedway)

I'm still struggling with my engineers a bit. I tried different socks but now without the honeymoon phase I always feel pressure at my right pinky toe. When I wear them longer or walk faster it causes pain. The left foot is roomy and feels perfect. Will the pressure go away with break in? I think that the main reason is the width of my right foot.

@FlavourFade Go to a cobbler and ask for help!! I could be something that can be fixed easily by stretching the problem areas.

[Luijim78]

@FlavourFade yes my friend, one foot is always more problematic than the other with engineers. You have to have a little patience, now with the heat your feet are more swollen (at least where I come from these days they are really hellish 🥵). I'm sure it will get better and better

[FlavourFade]

Thanks guys @goosehd and @Luijim78 ! I think the cobbler idea will gonna be the next step. And yes we have extreme heat right now which causes swelling of the feet....

Patience is something I did not learn

@FlavourFade
where do you live in Germany? If Cologne/Köln is reachable, go to Ingo Keller the shoe God ! He is the right guy to help .

[FlavourFade]

@Daniel-San thanks Daniel! I live in lower saxony so Ingo is quite a trip away but maybe I reach out to him!

CXL’s are breaking in quite nicely. Finally able to slide past the pass through point. Still using the plastic bag but not breaking a sweat any longer.

My name is Thomas, and I have a confession to make (the deal on Grailed was too good to let it pass, though).

[goosehd]

@tody ...the first step in recovery is admitting that you have a problem. I don't see any problems

[Tago Mago]

@tody Intervention next time I'm in Cologne. I'm thinking a couple of beers are in order

@Daniel-San I see you have steel gangs, how does they fit in comparison with other brands (White's, Red Wings, etc) ? Is it the same size ? Like 9 in these 9 in Iron Rangers ?

[Daniel San]

@Neru-6
I sold them because I need orthopedic insoles and they didn’t fit with them .
But yes they are very comparable to the Iron Rangers , I had them both on 9.5 . The Lofgren might be a little roomier in the toe box but not much.

@Daniel-San thank you mate.

Was talking with @SKT about engineers and I was singing the praises of my Lofgrens. Figured I should post an update:

New

2 years 4 months of wear (was a bit off on my calculation Sean)
