Personally would rather a custom build at this price point but holy hell look at that leather

[northsouthdenimguy]

@flannel-slut

Woah… i’m not a LTT guy, for me that leather would be sick on an engineer or service boot.

[goosehd]

@northsouthdenimguy I'll ask...what's LTT?

[flannel slut]

@goosehd lace to toe ️

[goosehd]

@flannel-slut Thank you.

[ZackB]

@flannel-slut those look incredible, that price though

[flannel slut]

@ZackB don’t read the write up bud… makes you look past the price point for a second. Or two.

@flannel-slut
the leather is absolutely awesome, they used it before on the Donkeys when I remember correctly.
what I can’t understand is the use of those Vibram soles , of course not bad but at this price range I definitely expect something more special.

[goosehd]

@Daniel-San They did use it last on the donkey punchers.

[Mizmazzle]

@Daniel-San I couldn't agree more. That Vibram 700/ 705 is a solid sole, but nothing special for a boot like this as you mentioned. I wish they'd mix up their soles more across their line of boots.

[Daniel San]

@Mizmazzle
absolutely, I wonder why they don’t have their own soles or do some repro ones like clutch .

[Ikeaparty]

Thinking about preordering a pair of Chapmans...

[ZackB]

@Ikeaparty which leather are you thinking about?

[Ikeaparty]

@ZackB probably the black CXL, I want the chococlate CXL wife says black so it'll probably be black!

[ZackB]

@Ikeaparty I don’t think you can go wrong with either color, the backstory is dope on those too.

[Daniel San]

just ordered the Sahara boots . guess the perfect boots for summer
hope they work

[Peckinpah]

I ordered a pair of Black Engineer boots around about a month ago. I'm usually a size 9 but decided to go for a 9 and a half, they're an incredible fit. Quite possibly the best looking and fitting boots I have, ended up ordering another pair a week later in natural.

I own a pair of Wesco Engineer boots in brown and they are great too but I think the Lofgrens edge it, for me anyway.

Amazing boots!

@Daniel-San wore mine for the first time today. Quite comfy out of the box and doesn’t feel warm.

[ZackB]

@PJ those look great PJ. Might need to grab those.

Can anyone provide sizing advice/comparisons on the JL engineer boots?

No idea what my Brannock size would be as the UK doesn’t really use them. For comparison I’m:
US 9 in Red Wing moc toes and Blacksmiths
UK 8 in Cheaney
Uk 8 in Blundstone
UK 8-8.5 in Edward Green
And all my Converse are marked as UK 9
