John Lofgren (Speedway)

9.5D on the spot with a bit of arch and the JL 9.5 is like a size too big.

I go half size down from brannock too, no way they’d be fitting if I went a full size down.

Got my Lofgrens today and they are 10/10. Sized one half down as folks here suggested and they fit well, just the slightest amount of heel slip and snug everywhere else.

@jdwaid

They look great, Congrats. That heel slip should lessen as you break them in. Mine fit very similarly when I first got this pair.

@jdwaid crazy cool boots!! I really prefer the JL toe over all the pancaked out engineers

[jdwaid]

@northsouthdenimguy @FlavourFade thanks fellas. They are truly a work of art, excited to put them into rotation.

[NickD]

They are the best engineer silhouette, bar none.

Threw the Burgundy pair on for the day.

Anybody here with E width feet wear the el capitan boot? If so, how did you size them? I like the look of the boot but what I've read about the 210 last being narrow is making me second guess the sizing.

I was so impressed with the fit and construction of the John Lofgren Wabash Engineers that I went ahead and picked up the El Capitan in Horween Dark Olive CXL. I was drawn to the unstructured toe box and the olive color which I think so unique. This is day 1, no patina and just wear around the house. I’m sure they will age really well.

For those who are interested in sizing - the last on the El Capitan is narrower and shorter than the Wabash engineer. I am a Brannock 11e and went true to size on the El Capitan (size 11) and they ended up being the same length and width as the Wabash engineer which I went half size down (size 10.5).
